Terra Luna Classic Block Size Proposal Officially Passed, LUNC Price Soars 10% USTC 20%

Published by

Terra Luna Classic community has unanimously passed a crucial block size proposal to mitigate some risks of peer-to-peer storm attacks on the Terra Classic chain. Notable developers have pointed out possible risks to Cosmos, Solana, and Polkadot ecosystems and suggested initial measures to reduce the impact of such attacks.

Terra Luna Classic Approves MaxBlockSize Proposal

Proposal 12094 “Proposal to decrease MaxBlockSize” has surpassed the pass threshold, officially approved by the Terra Luna Classic community. The developer team Genuine Labs submitted a proposal to decrease MaxBlockSize from 5mb to 2mb as an initial security measure to counter peer-to-peer spam.

The proposal has received 99.87% “Yes” votes, indicating the importance of increasing the max block size limit to prevent attacks on the chain. Among 56 validators who participated, 55 validators including Allnodes, Interstellar Lounge, Interstake One, Jesus Is Lord, Stalely, and others have voted in favor of the proposal.

As CoinGape earlier reported, validators believe this is likely the best option currently until Genuine Labs finds a permanent solution. Notional Labs CEO Jacob Gadikian said the community should also reduce block size to between 850kb and 1mb.

A proposal of increasing gas fees by 10x is also submitted claiming current levels for transactions are extremely low and make attacks feasible and economical.
