Gnosis co-founder: The Ethereum beacon chain experienced a 7-block deep reorg

05/25 15:09

Martin Köppelmann, the co-founder of Gnosis, tweeted that The Ethereum beacon chain experienced a 7-block deep reorg ~2.5h ago. This shows that the current attestation strategy of nodes should be reconsidered to hopefully result in a more stable chain. He also said this shows that the analysis by Vitalik Buterin here was too optimistic when the article claimed re-org stability will improve in POS over POW. We have not seen 7 block reorgs on Ethereum mainnet in years. It is unclear whether the reorg we saw was caused by an attack or just unfortunate network conditions.
