New exploit found in Zcash! Client updates needed.

Since two days there was news about some big bug found in Zcash. There was no info on anything more so i wasnt capable of making article on this.

Today we know what it was - option to fully turn off ZEC network by attacker.

Devs claim there was no sign of attack being actually used. Everybody should update to zcashd release 1.0.8-1.

ZCL Zclassic is made on same code as ZEC and has been turned off on Bittrex since the bug was found. ZCL should trade again when they can implement the fix ZEC has put up.

If you want to go long or short on this news BitMex is the place.
