On August 1, several figures associated with Ethereum Classic (ETC) took to Twitter to inform the community of issues with the ETC blockchain. Among the first was Ethereum Foundation member Hudson Jameson who stated that: “Exchanges need to pause deposits and withdrawals.”

Due to this possible attack, "reorg' took place at block 10904146.

Reorg is a built in feature in a blockchain that allows to roll back the network.
