Pirate Chain (ARRR) announced that on Oct. 14 an attacker exploited two transaction verification vulnerabilities to illegally mint about 39.82 million ARRR, inflating token supply by roughly 20%. The project says the vulnerabilities are now fixed and, after consensus with the community, mining pools, exchanges and dPoW notary nodes, the blockchain was rolled back to block 4,176,944 before the attack.
