Another day another exploit.

This time they hit the blockchain.

Yesterday $LTC suffered a coordinated DoS attack. Attackers tried double-spends through cross-chain swaps.

The root cause was a zero-day bug combined with outdated mining nodes that accepted invalid transactions.

Bug is now fixed.

A 13-block reorg (~3 hours) was required to resolve the chain.

The fork originated at block 3095930.

Exploits are evolving fast.

Hope they don’t find a way to abuse new tech for draining wallets without private keys.
