š„ ERROR - $SOL ALLOWED UNLIMITED MINTING OF TOKENS
In mid-April 2025, a critical vulnerability was found in Solanaās ZK ElGamal Proof Program, allowing attackers to potentially create unlimited tokens.
Some criticized the behind-the-scenes fix as centralized control. But co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko defended it, saying other blockchains would do the same.
š Funfact: Bitcoin Core also faced this problem in 2018, which could have created $BTC inflation.
Solanaās not new to these challenges, but it continues to act swiftly to protect its network.
