The DAO is under attack

06/17/2016

Apparently The DAO is under attack and is leaking Ethers in huge amounts.
A recently discovered recursive-split attack can be used to initiate ether-sends before the contracts burns them. On slack, the DAO curator and community members encourage everyone to start spamming the Ethereum network to slow down the attacker.

The attackers adress:
0x304a554a310c7e546dfe434669c62820b7d83490 (3.6M Ether ~$53M)

A strategy to rescue DAO tokens published on The DAO Blog

  1. If anyone knows who has the split proposals Congo Split, Beer Split and FUN-SPLT-42, please contact @griff on The DAO’s Slack. We need their help!
  2. If you have made a split proposal already and have the ability to split, please do so asap.
  3. If your tokens are blocked vote yes on split proposals.
  4. If your tokens are free, you have to make your best judgement call.
  5. If you want to help spam the Network so Christoph Lefteris Vitalik Gustauv and all the other geniuses can mount the counter attack… a community member posted this guide on how to:
    Please do this to spam the Ethereum Blockchain:
    Open terminal:
    $geth console
    In second terminal:
    $geth attach

In geth console (make sure account[0] has sufficient gas for transaction):u personal.unlockAccount(eth.accounts[0]) for (var i = 0; i < 100; i++) { eth.sendTransaction({from: eth.accounts[4], gas: 2300000, gasPrice: web3.toWei(20, ‘shannon’), data: ‘0x5b620186a05a131560135760016020526000565b600080601f600039601f565b6000f3’}) }
