Ravencoin Warns of Potential Deep Chain Reorg After Consensus Bug Exploited
AI Market Summary
Ravencoin disclosed an exploited consensus vulnerability that led some nodes to accept invalid blocks, creating a credible risk of a deep chain reorganization that could reverse roughly three days of transactions. Major pools are attempting to build an alternate chain excluding the affected branch, increasing settlement uncertainty. The team advised exchanges to suspend RVN deposits/withdrawals and treat recent confirmations as reversible, likely tightening liquidity and elevating counterparty risk.
