  • Oct-26-2021, 19:20 - Our node was on the majority-side of the fork, so we have continued processing blocks. Since we have some old backups, we are assisting in efforts to find the root cause of the incident so if there is a bug it can be fixed. We'll keep monitoring the situation closely. The automatic payout script will run as planned tomorrow.
  • Oct-26-2021, 01:53 - Statement LTO: "We've detected a fork in our network. Some community staking nodes have rejected a transaction that has been accepted by the majority, due to an incorrect balance."
  • Oct-25-2021, 21:31 - It has come to the attention of the team that a small number of community staking nodes have forked away from mainnet. We are trying to determine what has happened. The nodes that are on the majority include Binance, the bridge, and the mainnet wallet (and this node - LTO Leasing). This means that funds are not at risk. It does not appear that the COBALT mainet update had anything to do with the current situation and further research is being done to determine the cause. We will monitor the situation and may need to suspend this week's payout until this has been resolved.
