Thank you everyone who detected and helped resolve this potential attack vector.   It makes me very happy that the community is able to act and respond without my involvement. 

The governance structure of BitShares enables rapid responses and efficient coordination that would be very difficult to achieve with any other technology.

good job! this is newsworthy

I saw the earlier 'draft' proposals changed a lot of parameters.. was glad to see that the final one was clean/minimal and affected only fee_per_kb values. Great job and relatively fast response!

That is a beautiful sentence that could spawn across social media and spark big conversations. Google + is fine and all, but please can we add a social media plugin to the bitshares forum so comments like these can be amplified?

There are social media plugins available for Simple Machines Forum:

We can be heroes just for one day.

BTS-RFC 1.10.66 Has Been Approved by Committee

Review Period: Thu Jan 21, 2016 21:50 - 22:50

Due to a potential security issue discovered in the current fee structure, the Committee moved quickly to adjust fees to ensure that the attack vector that was found could not be exploited so easily.

For more details on this new approved rate please review the Committee github at:

https://github.com/BitShares-Committee/Approved-Proposals/blob/master/BTS-RFC-1.10.66.md

If you have further input on this new fee increase please feel free to share them here so that the committee may take them into advisement during our consultation.

Thank You On Behalf of The Bitshares Committee
