Casper Network halts operations following security breach

This incident serves as a reminder of the ever-present need for vigilance and proactive measures in the rapidly evolving world of blockchain technology.

Casper Network, a blockchain platform recognized for its approach to decentralized applications, experienced a security breach, resulting in a temporary halt of all operations to address and contain the issue.

The Casper Network team discovered the breach and promptly collaborated with validators to suspend the network. This measure was implemented to reduce the impact of the security breach and prevent potential exploitation. The network halt ensures that transactions cannot be processed until the vulnerability is addressed.

The Casper Association, Casper Labs, and the community of validators are working together to address the issue. This joint effort involves pooling resources and expertise to find a solution efficiently.

CasperLabs to become blockchain of choice for the City of Fuzhou, China

CasperLabs is building an open-permissioned blockchain protocol and will be a service provider to China’s Blockchain-based Service Network.

On Friday, CasperLabs, a blockchain software firm, announced a partnership with China's Blockchain-based Service Network, or BSN. Through the agreement, which has been minted as a nonfungible token, or NFT, as a sign of commemoration, Casper Network will be added as the blockchain of choice to the Fuzhou City Chain for use in public and private crypto infrastructure developments in the region — dubbed "Fuzhou Chain powered by Casper." RockTree Capital, an investment company, based in New York, played a critical role in bridging the entente between Casper and Fuzhou City.

As told by stakeholders, the partnership's main goal is to enable BSN to gain from Casper's scalability, security, and decentralization, as well as the use of the open-permissioned blockchain, or OPB, protocol to eliminate the need for using cryptocurrencies to pay for gas fees. Since its launch in 2019, BSN has expanded to more than 120 public city nodes across China, serving as data centers running and processing transactions on its umbrella blockchain networks.

Mrinal Manohar, co-founder, and CEO of CasperLabs, said of the development:

By partnering with Casper, the BSN gains from Casper’s scalability, security, and decentralization. The use of OPB eliminates the use of cryptocurrencies to pay for gas fees. All combined, this makes it much simpler for developers in and around Fuzhou to generate public and private blockchain applications at a lower cost.
