Anyone else worried about the fork that's happening right now?
I recommend you reach out to everyone you know running burstcoin and urge them to upgrade to 1.2.1. The quicker we can get all the mining power back to the correct fork the better. Right now it looks like the old fork still has about 1/3 the hash power as the main fork, which is problematic because it will continue finding blocks for a long time.
Specifically, we need to get the big pools to upgrade asap.
I'm also worried about the exchanges getting attacked. Does anyone have contacts at the exchanges?
upgrading to 1.2.1 is fine, but seems like not enough. i've got 3 wallets on 1.2.1 that are on the wrong chain, and about 2/3rds of their peers are 1.2.1 too
i have deleted the db_burst directory on one of the three, and it is redownloading the chain from scratch since after a restart. I hope this will get it onto the right chain - if not - then new users risk up ending on the wrong chain which is a problem going forward.
Fortunately, it should be relatively easy to fix with a new release that selects the correct subchain at he fork point. Will be back when i have redownloaded the chain.. it takes a while.. at 14651 now. i guess a few hours and i'll be there, except if there is much more data towards the end, then it could be 4-5 hours.
