ETC Weekly - Network security, Thanos hard-fork, ECIP comparison This is the first edition of the relaunched ETC Weekly newsletter brought to you by the ETC Cooperative. We're pleased to provide you with the latest ETC news, updates, and related technologies. Protocol Majority of ETC mining pools have ECIP-1100 (MESS) enabled. Therefore, a 51% attacker's incentive is dramatically reduced because they would have to produce a chain segment with greater total difficulty than the canonical chain. Thanos hard-fork: ECIP-1099 is accepted which will halve the size and growth rate of the dag. ECIP-1099 will require a hard-fork, code-named, Thanos. Both Hyperledger Besu and Core-geth support ECIP-1099 and upon successful testing, the Thanos hard-fork would occur at block 11,700,000. Currently supported clients: Hyperledger Besu 20.10.0-RC2 or later. Core-geth 1.11.16 or later. The dag modification will change the algorithm to be, Etchash instead of Ethash. Etchash resources: https://github.com/eth-classic/etchash ETC Coop and IOHK collaborate to produce an ECIP Comparison for 51% Attack Resistance for the broader community's knowledge and understanding to resist 51% attacks. News Mantis is the first original ETC protocol providing node client by IOHK and it's coming back! The Mantis team publishes weekly development updates on IOHK's YouTube.
