A major reorganization of blocks has been recorded in the Ethereum network (more than 450, according to Blockchain and Etherscan), developer Martin Holst Svende said. The error affected the Geth client versions v1. 10. 7 and earlier. https://twitter.com/mhswende/status/1431259601530458112 According to him, the reason is the exploitation of a bug that became known earlier. On August 24, Geth developers released a new version v1. 10. 8 and called on all users to update the software. The developers recommended to refrain from making transactions. Svende noted that most miners used the current version of the software, and the "correct" chain turned out to be the longest. However, according to Ethernodes.org, 73% of Geth clients are still using older versions. This means that about 54% of Ethereum nodes are working with a serious infrastructure error. Svende's version was confirmed by analysts of The Block. They indicated that the reorganization occurred as a result of the exploitation of the error by an unknown attacker. It also affects other EVM-compatible chains, such as Polygon, BSC, xDai, Görli. #Cryptocurrency
