There we go again.

Looks like the exchanges (except gox) have the situation under control though.

MtGox could learn a lesson or two about how to do a press release from Stamp.

Sine secretum non libertas

"“Recall that currencies don’t become widely used spontaneously or through a grassroots campaign. They become widely used nationally because a government declares them legal tender, and they become widely used internationally because they are legal tender in a significant economic area with large, unrestricted capital markets.”

Yea, governments sanctioned facebook twitter p2p arab spring and so much of what else that's been happening lately ...

Currencies have always become widely used spontaneously and through a grassroots campaign.  Fiat currency as we know it today has only existed since 1971.  It is an experiment, and it appears to be failing.  Every government issued currency has inevitably failed, with the exception of those currently in use.

Anyone who would believe JPMorgan's comments on currency deserves what they get.  I pity their children, however.

So, the general position of other exchanges seems to be "our software did not have MtGOX's bug, and now we have removed it".   Grin

Bitcoin is currently in a denial of service mode.

"aantonop: Tx malleability is now used in active broad-based attack against bitcoin network. Funds NOT at risk, but Denial-of-Service in progress"


Meanwhile many Bitstamp and btc-e withdrawals have gone AWOL.

Some panic is in order. Kindly SELL in orderly fashion, before we hit the cliff.

What is there to panic?

So does this affect transactions in any way? No, it does not. I'll be kindly buying.

idk does it?
maybe....
could take a while for a TX to get through onto the blockchain, while this DOS is happening?

Dear Bitstamp users

Bitstamp’s exchange software is extremely cautious concerning Bitcoin transactions. Currently it has suspended processing Bitcoin withdrawals due to inconsistent results reported by our bitcoind wallet, caused by a denial-of-service attack using transaction malleability to temporarily disrupt balance checking. As such, Bitcoin withdrawal processing will be suspended temporarily until a software fix is issued.

No funds have been lost and no funds are at risk.

This is a denial-of-service attack made possible by some misunderstandings in Bitcoin wallet implementations. These misunderstandings have simple solutions that are being implemented as we speak, and we're confident everything will be back to normal shortly.

Withdrawals which failed on the 10th and 11th of February will be canceled and the amounts added back to the customer account balances.

We will communicate any further developments regarding this issue.

Thank you for your understanding!

Best regards
Bitstamp team
