Dash to Significantly Overhaul Security With ChainLocks, Solves 51% Mining Attacks

Dash has announced the future implementation of ChainLocks, an approach to solving a variety of network disruptions, including 51% attacks.

In a recent blog post, Dash developer Codablock explains a new approach to security in an upcoming release. The new Dash Improvement Proposal (DIP) 8, dubbed ChainLocks, will leverage long-living masternode quorums (LLMQs) to sign blocks as they are seen by the network, protecting against attacks and attempts to reverse transactions:

Dash Announcing DIP 8 - ChainLocks

Mitigating 51% attacks with LLMQ-based ChainLocks

This is fantastic news, i was a bit worried myself with the recent hash wars originating from Bitcoin SV and from certain mining pools (SharkPool) threathening
to attack all competing POW blockchains. This provides Dash with a strong solution to that threat.

In an Increasingly Crowded Payment Coin Field, Dash's Singular Focus Stands Out

Dash was ranked number 1 in a new research report that detailed and scored various attributes of payment coins.

The report evaluated each of 32 payment-focused cryptocurrencies by “Security, Availability, User-friendliness, Technical user aspects, Maintenance”. Points were given to coins in each section and tallied for a total at the end, of which Dash was the top ranked with 114 points. One section where Dash stood out in particular was in security since it ranked third with a hashrate of 2.35 PH/s, only behind Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash, and was one of the few coins utilizing a Masternode network.

Breaking: Numerous Bitcoin Wallets May Have Been Compromised by Rogue Developer

https://www.ccn.com/breaking-numerous-bitcoin-wallets-may-have-been-compromised-by-rogue-developer/

Quote

A user with very little coding activity on GitHub requested publishing rights to the event-stream library from its previous maintainer, Dominic Tarr, who said that he had not maintained the repository
in years and gave control to the new user, called right9ctrl.

The library event-stream is used in many Node.js applications. According to a complainant on GitHub, the new maintainer right9ctrl either pulled a sneaky move to inject malware or unknowingly had the
same effect as if he had, that effect being that it would leak private keys from applications that relied on both the event-stream and copay-dash modules.

Basically, the developer updated the module with malware and then patched the problem to avoid detection, but the numerous people who had already installed it remain affected.
Copay — whose open-source code is itself used by many crypto applications — would be just one of many that use the library, but it happens to be built and maintained by a multi-million dollar
Bitcoin payment processing company — BitPay — which raises questions on its own.

Dash Copay is NOT affected !
