Remote DoS vulnerability found in Bitcoin Unlimited, 75% of BU nodes are down
- smartfbrankings 10y agoThe remaining 25% are likely not even BU nodes, but Core nodes modified to fake signal BU
- Frogolocalypse 10y agoYes. Poorly written untested code moved to production, with a fatal bug that crashes when sent an invalid transaction message. The important take-away from this though, is that miners that are signalling for BU remain largely unaffected, which means they're using core software for mining, while signalling BU. That's a vote of confidence to the alternate client.
