Some miners didn't verify the validity of blocks after the enforcement of the latest BIP. These miners then continued to mine on an invalid chain. [...] how worried should we be ? About 28.5% worried. ya.ya.yo! Title: Re: Whats wrong with the blockchain right now? Post by: unamis76 on July 13, 2015, 09:12:17 PM Just have updated clients and you'll be fine :)

The first time, the split lasted 6 blocks, the second time it lasted 3 blocks. To wait 30 confirmation seems like an overkill, I never really understood that. On the other hand, the split touched the magical barrier of waiting 6 confirmations to be safe. But, as far as I know, there was no double spend and every transaction in the invalid chain, also got into the valid chain. Title: Re: Whats wrong with the blockchain right now?

I prefer BlockTrail much better overview and insight. - Mayer Amschel Title: Re: Whats wrong with the blockchain right now? Post by: ShawnCart on July 14, 2015, 07:15:53 AM If you use the latest client, then there is no need to wait for 30 confirmations.

It is a minor bump and we will see some innovations comming along in the development of bitcoin. Only hope this stress testing does not affect the calm of the developers so they will not make overhaste decisions and deploy buggy code or major flaws. |
