Hey kids! Imagine Ethereum, a superhighway for digital money, had a little hiccup. During a recent upgrade called Pectra, some sneaky trouble happened on a test track (not the real highway!). It was like a game of hide-and-seek with a bug.
- A clever attacker found a tiny weakness in the upgrade.
- They sent fake transactions to cause problems, making the highway slow down.
- Smart Ethereum developers quickly patched the problem, and the highway is working fine again.
- They learned a valuable lesson and decided to test the upgrade more before making changes to the main highway.
| What Happened | Details |
|---|---|
| Attacker | Exploited a coding mistake. |
| Problem | Slowed down transactions on a test network. |
| Fix | Developers patched the code quickly. |
| Result | No major problems on the main Ethereum network. Upgrade delayed for more testing. |
