Source:
January ends just as fun as the beginning. We will remind, the seventh day, the hackers had a 51 percent attack on the network Classic. The team representatives have not confirmed the existence of problems, but only recommended that the exchanges and pools to increase the number of confirmations. The situation in the niche has not changed — today the victim was . The biggest surprise was the identity of the attacker. It was not a hacker, a well-known mining-pool.
Today, the team is monitoring the pool has detected a problem with the networking MOAC. From a distance they seemed normal . As a result of the actions of the attackers proposal split (separation) of the blockchain, and part of the found blocks are turned in the wrong. Look at the abundance .

The Miners lost money and time.
theWhat's wrong with MOAC
Analysis of the situation helped to discover the culprit — it was the pool . The platform plays the most important role in the life of the network MOAC, at the moment it accounts for about 5 percent Hasrat network.
However, for unknown reasons, Poole attempted to manipulate the network MOAC. The owners of the pool was cut off my node from the rest of the network, and then «filled» big Hasrat on its pool of about 600 GH/s. By the way, normal Hasrat network MOAC is only 455 GH/s.

When connecting nodes BYLT.CQ back to the rest of the network MOAC public chain was wrong, it was shorter. In the end, all the pools have received the rejections, and the blocks got it to the attacker. By the way, that they during the attack.

Now the network is normal.
What was the reason for such action is unknown. Perhaps the goal was to carry out double-spending and earn money. It is impossible to exclude and other options. However, whatever the answer, it cannot be justified.
Such behavior by a public pool is not permissible. Every mining pool is required to provide for network stability, coins and normal working conditions for miners. And if the platform is on the move, she didn't just abuse their power, but also undermines the confidence of cryptocommunist.
The Fact of deliberate destabilization of the network — unprofessional. Even if the situation was the result of any experiment, the owners BYLT don't deserve a second chance. Digging coins, including MOAC, we recommend you to . We have mining without the circus.
