    It failed with the attacker losing out the most in the end!
    This video breaks down what happened and how the Cardano community came together to come up with a solution and stop the attack from happening.

      And did a fantastic job of it too. The chain is resilient to this type of attack and has ample of room to be tweaked for further scaling.
      Thank you hacker for testing and pushing the chain to the limits. Your ADA will be put to good use.

    This really needs to be looked into much deeper... imo it seems there's more to this than what we are seeing at surface level.... what are the possibilities that this wasn't staged by those who offered the solution? Just a thought...

    • @LearnCardano
      @LearnCardano  15 днів тому +1

      For a few thousand ADA? Not really worth it but... follow the ADA
      Here is the funding wallet from Kraken exchange:
      cardanoscan.io/address/01994b8f96454ec8669f665f5a1fb785eb2d1a430da7770cf9fedfde8c09741fefb1930568664a04749f94261607f75b86c7959eb7201290b1
      Just need to ask them nicely to investigate who sent those funds since they are a KYCed centralised exchange.

    • @LearnCardano

      Anyone can DDoS any network, website etc. It's just a matter of cost, time and resources. Solana gets DDoS and their network goes down, banks get DDoS and no one can access websites etc. The important thing to note is that Cardano transactions kept powering on. People still kept on trading although it was just a lot slower than normal.

      I don't think you understood what happen. You hear DDOS and you think multiple computer attack the network... what really happened was the attacker made a bunch of wallets and performed a bunch of transactions at once. Which can be done to EVERY blockchain. It is how you defeat such attacks that makes it web3. In this case. By stealing their funds lol
