    As some of you are aware, yesterday the Cryptopia markets were paused.

    POLIS talk to the Cryptopia wallet support team and they told us they are investigating a possible 51% attack on Polis Blockchain.


    The last week we have experienced some unusual activity on high purchases and dumps on Cryptopia.
    Also we have seen some unusual activity over the network hash difficulty calculation and time between blocks.
    Yesterday we run some analytic tests over the Polis Blockchain and we don't find any proof of a 51% attack or a double spend. We informed the Cryptopia team and we are working together to make this analysis as fast as we can to open the markets again.

    POLIS have prepare an automatic mechanisms for any attempt of a 51% attack that will work the next time unusual activity is detected.

    As for the Core Team, as we stated before we are preparing a switch to a Pow/Pos hybrid system to prevent this kind of attacks.
