I have read a lot from you today. My path is also exciting and I can't write about it yet. But we have some things in common, each in our own way. I am glad to be here. I wish you all the best at all times.
Just to give you a little bit of information on the fix, yes, we centralized the hell out of the blurt network in order to push the attacker out. It will re decentralize, but it will re a decentralizd in a totally new way.
I should make a diagram that shows what we did, but that's not going to happen right now, stuff like that is pretty time consuming and I am pretty short on time.
Maybe by the coming weekend.
sorry that was totally incomplete information, what we did is we wrapped the chain in a VPN. Furthermore, that was not the only attack. Allow me to present to you the full scope of the attack on blurt:
Here's the scope of the attack:
attack on block space
Attack on peer to peer network of graphene
Attack on zerotier
Attack on witness nodes
Attack on wblurt
Human intelligence (spies)
Attacks on other projects I am involved in as well
specifically these attacks on other projects involved death threats against our entire team at VSYS.
All of those
All at once
All confirmed
Not to mention nice little twitter dm death threats
Tomorrow I'm getting a haircut and a shave.
I look like a caveman.
good work.
Hehe, I will need to shave too.

About half way down he claims to be behind the attack on Blurt. Was the fix what was mentioned in that post?

OMG! Thank you for the detailed answer and a do hope that everything will be fine. That is a lot more than I was expecting.
Yes, of course everything will be fine.
They make threats to scare and destabilize people, that's all.
I ain't got time for that.
No we of course didn't implement any fix that was suggested by the attackers.
Thank you so much the team! Great work

I need as much detail as possible to troubleshoot this please.
Ah I have checked the tx. @yehey will help you. Most likely it is just constipated.
Yes. One day remaining to sync, after that back to normal operations.
@kopasi I saw your pending transaction. It will be completed today. No worries.
Cheers to you.
