In recent weeks, the ethrium currency and network have been the target of continued hacker attacks, causing many problems and disrupting the network as users begin to face problems with their transactions.
. Hackers' attacks appeared to be very subtle in identifying weaknesses in client applications as well as protocol specifications and exploiting them in order to make mining too difficult for everyone or using ethereal.
According to Atheerium developers is the most obvious result of attacks for most users they have difficulties in getting transactions included in block blocks, and full nodes (nodes) are facing memory limitations in bloated management. This needs to be handled with hardfork and that the hardfork process was initially planned to occur at a 2457,000 block, but has since been postponed to a 2463,000 block to allow for further testing of the new code before it becomes lively. This is supposed to happen sometime around coming next Tuesday October 18th.
We will note that some exchanges and transactions at the start of the HardFork process will temporarily disrupt the trading, as well as the drag and drop of the etherium.
So be sure to be careful with any etherium treatment when you start the HardFork process.
