Transaction spamming, or Tx spamming, is one of the persistent security attacks on these high performance blockchains that can wreak havoc for extended periods of time. The attackers might or might not gain any financial benefit, but can certainly make everybody’s life quite miserable at relatively low cost.
In this article, we define what is transaction spamming, how to detect it, and how to deal with it. Recent examples from 4 leading projects were studied, as well as a best practice is summarized.

As part of Wolfram Physics Project, NKN advisor Dr. Stephen Wolfram touched upon NKN as an example of distributed computing and using Cellular Automata for consensus algorithm. Let’s use our computing power to support @wolframphysics Watch the NKN bits at 0h27m17s and also 1h17m35s mark:Wolfram Physics Project: Working Session Wednesday, Apr. 22, 2020 [Distributed… About Wolfram Physics Project Physicist and […]
Direct and secure messaging, files, streaming for human or machine The wraps are off, and today we are proud to announce (drum rolls…) dataRide! The name dataRide derives from two words: data and rideshare. When connectivity is shared and incentivized, data flows better. Much better. What is dataRide? dataRide is a decentralized PaaS (Platform as […]
V0.1, September 2019 edition Welcome newcomers Mining can sound daunting for newcomers, especially when you hear about the expensive ASIC based Bitcoin mining machines or very high end cloud servers needed for other leading blockchain projects.
