@IOHK_Charles Where we going?!

LFG

@intocryptoverse Yup. You're smart as hell and right most of the time. Just need slightly nicer delivery. Preciated. 🤜

I hope I saved some people from the pain of altcoins over the last few years. With that said, I have recently started acting like an arrogant asshole about altcoins. I am sorry. I’ll try and be better.

@IOHK_Charles Very very noice!

Hello from Japan. Just signed the integration agreement for USDCx on Cardano. Welcome to Cardano Circle! We are all excited about the possibilities. More from the Pentad soon youtube.com/watch?v=8P09rx…

@berry_ales Thanks for the great simple explaination! During the poison event, did Chain A still accept and include the good transactions that reached concensus and included/processed in chain B?

What is fascinating about yesterday's event is how Cardano recovered from a minority chain and got rid of the symptom while preserving most of the history and progress since the incident. 🧵

@nmkr_io Got one! Where's the rarity chart for this?! J/K. Thnx

We are happy to announce that the "I Survived a Poisoned Cardano Transaction" participation NFT is out now! For free. Minting link in the tweet below ⬇️⬇️⬇️

@TheAnonymousAl3 @HolgerCardano24 @rvcas Me too and I normally don't like reading more than a few words. Lol

@HolgerCardano24 @rvcas I actually read the whole thing ;)

⚠️I urge everyone to read this - it is important⚠️ It will take a moment to read through it, but YOU need to know the truth! ℹ️All statements are 100% my personal opinionℹ️ 🚨 Buckle up, this will be a rough, unfiltered one🚨 🚨 Do not continue reading if you cannot handle strong words, because I will not sugarcoat anything when pointing out facts in very extreme examples, extrapolations, or comparisons.🚨 1. I want to point out some things about the "real" Homer. He posted that he is sorry for what he did, etc. I will quote the most important parts and respond to them. 2. After that I will give some statements of the personal experiences i had with him (over multiple years). Pre-Context: Homer, is a developer, active for multiple years in the Cardano-Ecosystem - keep this in mind as context, when he says: i had no idea, etc. --- #1 - His post vs reality: A) "It started off as a "let's see if I can reproduce the bad transaction" personal challenge" Oh, a personal challenge?! So you saw something on testnet, which broke the testnet and then you made it YOUR PERSONAL challenge to try to break our live/mainnet-chain? WOW, then i guess it is okay, right? After seeing that someone destroys dummy-targets on a shooting range - he made it his personal challenge to shoot living people... The classic, "let's see if they die too"-Challenge?! B) "to rely on AI's instructions on how to block all traffic in/out of my Linux server without properly testing it on testnet first, and then watched in horror as the last block time on explorers froze" Hahaha, the guy using linux on a daily-basis, creating code which runs on linux for SPOs, does not know how to block outgoing traffic with the built-in firewall tools? And on top of that with AI instructions he was not able to do so? What a liar! We are not talking about crazy nftables/iptables rules, we are talking about: sudo ufw default deny outgoing Tada!! Every outgoing traffic blocked, unless you intentionally allow it. C) "I know there's nothing I can do to make up for all the pain and stress I've caused over the past X hours." Listen you little cockroach (and we come to that later, why i name him in this "aggressive" way): You did not only cause pain/stress to people - you put their investment, life savings - and by that, entire families with kids, etc. on the line - for what? Oh yes,... your personal: let's try if i can destroy mainnet challenge,... sorry already forgot! D) "I am sorry, I truly am. I didn't have evil intentions in my heart" Oh yes, you are actually evil - intentionally, but we will come back to that later, when I describe my personal experiences i had with you. E) "it wasn't anything that was done for any financial gain or bragging rights" Yeah we already understood you - was only a test to see if you can destroy everything, AFTER you saw what the impact was on testnet. The only "financial" thing that happened was that EVERYONE else needed to eat shit, because of your "personal challenge". F) "(yes but RATS pool id - I had to pick some pool id)" Okay, the guy who is part of a group/project (of very talented and dedicated people - to create open source tools for SPOs) does not know how to create a pool himself? Oh wait!! You run a Stakepool yourself right? Ticker: AAA / Pool-ID: pool1ljlmfg7p37ysmea9ra5xqwccue203dpj40w6zlzn5r2cvjrf6tw Isn't that your pool? Oh yes, you need to take someones else's Stakepool-ID so that the first lead ends up at that person? Yeah, you are not evil - you just fake to be someone else while you attack everyone for your personal challenge! Good boy! G) "I'm ashamed of my carelessness and take full responsibility for it and whatever consequences will follow." Oh, why are you ashamed? Wasn't it just a personal challenge which was aimed at EVERYONE with the goal to see if you can destroy everything? No reason to be ashamed, buddy,.. we "all" know how much "fun" it is to put live-rounds into peoples heads just to see if it will have the same destructive impact, you witnessed on the shooting-range, and kill them. H) "I'm a bad human being" Not shit, Sherlock! (more in the personal experiences part) I) "I'm sure a part of me deep inside was a bit frustrated with some things/people in recent months/years" Yeah, buddy,... we "all" understand you. I also personally go and rape the neighbor's daughter and shoot some random people, because I was frustrated when I stood up. WHO WOULD NOT,... right???.... right?!??!!? J) "some part of me had some quiet confidence that blocks would continue" You are such a liar - you do nothing other than analyzing our blockchain every single day - but you were so confident that nothing bad would happen...that you even used another persons Pool-ID for the attack. K) "Sorry, Cardano community, I truly am." You are not sorry, you're shitting your pants, because law enforcement started to do an investigation. And you know they will get you. Your apologies are as good as the BS a child-predator would tell the cops, when he got caught red-handed. BONUS: "Fun-Fact" - your X-Bio: "Don't invest more than you can afford to go to zero, and think long term" Looks like you invested more criminal intention into something, which had an impact/outcome that you are NOT able to handle. #2 - My personal experiences with Homer over multiple years: Homer was attacking me for years. Whenever i helped other SPOs he was waiting in Telegram just for the moment to write some bad things, personal attacks, in order to provoke me for NO good REASON. I never worked, with the guy, i never had any interactions with him. So there is not really a reason why someone would keep attacking and provoking me.... other than a real sick mindset and/or another personal challenge, because he does not like that or how i help other people. But, what happens is, that some of his "coding" buddies have admin/mod-rights in certain channels, who are always there to happily support the bad-actor: He provokes and attacks me till he gets an reaction out of me, and in the moment I respond to his BS, I am the bad-guy, and his mod-friends talking shit to me or want to punish me for speaking up. They saw everything, what he said to me - all good no problem. I am just not allowed to defend myself. Why I say this, am i not man enough to handle it when someone attacks and provokes me in a huge channel with 3000 people? Oh, I can handle that, but i still want to speak up and say the truth, so that 3000 people do not only consume the fud/attack/provocation and take it as a fact. BUT i am writing this because this guy has a multiple-year long history of getting away with shit - no matter what he does. Like, oh he helps us and provides code etc., so let's all collectively look away when he "rapes" someone,... And here we are,... years and years later: The guy who was always like a mental time-bomb, went off. Oh... i AM sooooo sorry,... i meant, he was JUST doing his personal challenge....to see if he can destroy everything. But hey... no bad intentions!! Just go into a freaking Kindergarten with an AK unload the clip and be like: "Shit!!! I did not think i could hit someone" Dear people out there! I AM more than pissed. And after years and years of eating shit from this guy.... Fate and Karma hit ultra hard. We just say NATURAL SELECTION at its finest! The guy, is and was never sorry, he is just afraid that for the first time in his life there could be consequences for his actions. Lets define criminal conduct a bit: 1. The person understood what they were doing 2. The person acted deliberately, not by accident 3. The person recognized the likely consequences 4. The person proceeded despite knowing it could cause harm 5. The person had control over their actions at the time As you all figured by now I am mad about this outrageous behavior. Drag me through the mud for years - okay i can handle that. Attacking our entire ecosystem? There is no fucking way I stay silent and just let this slip, by someone people who "vibe-coded" with him backing him up like: yeah when he is not destroying other people, then he is a decent coder. FUCK NO! Not on my watch! So please give this little MF what he deserves! And don't fall for that I am sorry BS, he knew what he was doing and the impact, he is just trying to save his ass. Alright, maybe some of you folks think: Oh boy, Holger why using so many "bad" words,... EASY: Because sometimes you need to speak up and say the god damn raw truth! So, i am sorry, if my text was a bit rough for some faint-hearted souls out there, but people who know me know that i am not holding back when it comes to pointing out the facts! Thanks for reading through this dumpster fire, enjoy the weekend! Cheers,... p.s.: No comments like: "oh Holger, why such wording and why so angry" ENOUGH is ENOUGH!

@adamKDean Glad this wasn't catastrophic 😉. Yup, we have improvements to do.

It's important to ask the right questions: how did the bug that was exploited today get there between January 7th and today? Why didn't conformance testing find it (at all/sooner)? How do we better protect ourselves against this in a multinodular future? This "exploit" could really cause very little harm except for causing forks between versions that accepted it and those that didn't (and some relatively minor downstream tooling issues that could be overcome eventually), no funds were ever at risk although mitigating the impact of the exploit on mainnet obviously caused substantial monetary impact. What are our next steps, as an ecosystem, to try and test better/harder (against all node software and versions) to try and minimize the potential for this to ever happen again?

@IOHK_Charles Mr. Catastrophic @adamKDean warned us back then. Great to see everyone coming together to resolve this quickly.

Here's the Intersect report

@IOHK_Charles Stronger 💪 together!

We came together today to fix this one

@StakeWithPride Agree. We're staying on 10.1.4 for now. We had to reboot both relay and BP.

Note to SPO's running the older versions that's not affected: Keep an eye on your node. I'm running 10.1.4 and did have to restart all my nodes to get them to sync.

@StakeWithPride @IOHK_Charles Sure did! It's been nostalgic and reminded me of the Bitcoin and Eth mining days.

Participating in the biggest crypto airdrop ever via the Scavenger Hunt has been the most fun I've had in ages. Anyone else feeling the same? Thank you @IOHK_Charles! #Cardano

@midnightfdn Please consider making it browser-only immediately and implement anti-bots. Waiting 'til day 21 is too late.

We’re aware that some users may occasionally see their NIGHT allocation display as 0 or be unable to submit or restart their sessions. When this occurs, it represents a temporary pause in the system. All solutions and submissions continue to be reported accurately once connectivity is restored, and no allocations are lost. If a challenge has already loaded before the pause, it will still solve once we’re back online. Our team is actively monitoring and fine-tuning performance to minimize these interruptions and keep Scavenger Mine running smoothly. Thank you for your continued patience. 🙏

@JaromirTesar @midnightfdn Agree. Or at least change to browser only immediately and implement anti-bots. There's barely any reward for the majority of people which are running browser. The few that are running API and bots are taking all the rewards. Lame.

@midnightfdn I believe it should have been browser-only from the day 1.

1/ Two big updates are coming to Scavenger Mine. 1️⃣ The total NIGHT allocation for the Scavenger Mine phase is increasing to 1B NIGHT. 2️⃣ The final day will be browser-only to better increase the opportunity for all participants. Details below 👇🧵

@IOHK_Charles Charles, I'm sorry that you had to go through all this. Too many shitty people in this world. How much did that audit cost?

Waiting for the apologies to come rolling in...
