Don't remind me again today

Cardano recently encountered a rare issue when a faulty transaction caused the blockchain to split into two branches. This error stemmed from an old piece of code existing since 2022, which allowed a misformatted transaction to pass the checks and caused the nodes to process differently.



The culprit is a staking pool operator named Homer J, who said he was just "experimenting out of curiosity" and used AI to create faulty transactions. However, Charles Hoskinson believes this was a deliberate attack, disrupting the entire network and affecting the rewards of validators. He also revealed that the FBI has launched an investigation. Cardano has patched the vulnerability in time, and users' assets were not affected.#GateChristmasGiveaway #NonfarmPayrollsBeatExpectations #ShowMyAlphaPoints $BTC $ETH
