Crypto Industry News:
According to Bitcoin node statistics reported on the website of the main Bitcoin developer, Luke Dashjr, 60.22% of full nodes run software that is still vulnerable to inflation error.
According to the reported data, software running on 60,101 full nodes is prone to error, which allows Bitcoin miners to artificially inflate the supply of cryptocurrencies with a simple double input type.
According to the analysis - probably due to the possible catastrophic consequences of the error - programmers decided to keep it secret and only revealed that the error caused that the network was exposed to DDoS attacks. Developers have revealed the full threat of the vulnerability later after it has been repaired.
The statistics on the Dashjr website show that there are currently 96,388 full Bitcoin nodes operating, which is about ten times the number reported by most analytical platforms. For example, BitNodes claims that there are now 9,515 full Bitcoin nodes, while other sources indicate that only 9,391 nodes are active.
