Is that the reason behind the rapid drop in the number of nodes as well?
There was a malicious group from central asia running a very large amount of nodes that were continuously dumping. They seemed to have moved on. This is a good thing, as Horizon can now return to its uptrend, and people running nodes now are the legitimate holders. It also means people running nodes will receive a higher amount of HZ every day.
Update: We have identified the issue, identified the solution, testing is successful and we are creating a zip file for people who are experiencing the problem.
People who are stuck on block #236132 are going to have to delete their nhz_db folder and use the one we are about to post to get past that block.
I'll post a download link soon.
The ones gaming the faucet as well I presume. To be honest I'm glad that it is because of them not because of tech
Thanks for being on top of things, as per usual
Best of luck in 2015 Nick. To the entire team and everyone here too
