This is just a guess, but I think they're exploiting the lag in Masari's re-target time. If you make a huge spike of hash for a little bit, you will get blocks very fast because the difficulty won't rise right away. Then, once it is risen, you pull your hash and let other people mine on high difficulty for very slow blocktimes, until diff comes back down. Then you repeat.
was miming this and riding the difficulty downtrend, then someone sent ridiculous amount of hashrate, I pulled my miner for now until difficulty is normal.
Hi dev, you might want to address this exploit issue as it can drive miners away. there was 26+ miners before now its down to 13.
Looks like dev dont know what he is doing. This shit will get palyed. If he no smart then this is shit worth nothing. Dev do the right thing and change change what is needed. Or you dont know a thing?
Make your coin stronger. Protect it from bad actors/players/shitters/hash-jumpers/space travellers.
Maybe you dont care because you already have the biggest coin collection.
I have released a mandatory upgrade version v0.1.2.0, containing a protocol upgrade that changes the difficulty algorithm to handle these flash miners.
https://github.com/masari-project/masari/releases/tag/v0.1.2.0
Linux binaries: https://github.com/masari-project/masari/releases/download/v0.1.2.0/masari-linux-x64-v0.1.2.0.tar.gz
Windows and Mac binaries will be available tomorrow, and this is released early with Linux binaries to protect the exchanges and the pools involved
Everybody please update ASAP, as this hard fork could be due much sooner with the flash mining at play!
Good. Perhaps you know a thing or two.
