Manta co-founder : The network is experiencing well-planned DDOS attacks, funds are safe

Kenny Li, co-founder of Manta Network, posted on social media that at the same time as their TGE event started (5:30 PM Beijing time), Manta Network began experiencing a DDOS attack. Since then, over 135 million requests have been received by the RPC node, indicating a very aggressive and well-timed attack. Currently, the situation for Manta Network is:

· Blockchain operation is secure

· Product production is normal

· Funds are safe

· Communication between applications and the blockchain is severely restricted

The Manta Network team is working around the clock to resolve the issue. They are developing more DDoS mitigation measures and communicating with partners and service providers to deploy countermeasures. This attack is much more fierce than usual and has lasted much longer, which means that the time to resolve the issue is also longer than usual.

Mayday

Some of you degens were screaming “Mayday” as you watched crypto markets puke from mid-April until the present. There was so much pain that momentum-chasing paper hands like Irene Zhao proclaimed that they were “done” with crypto. As if – she will dutifully return posting crypto thirst traps once Bitcoin is back trending up and to the right in short order.

GNUS on Fantom was attacked, with a loss of about $1.27 million

According to Beosin's monitoring, GNUS on Fantom was attacked, resulting in a loss of approximately $1.27 million.

We will take a snapshot of the blocks before the exploit. To ensure fairness, please do not purchase GNUS tokens after the exploit, as we will issue new tokens.
