Back at it again with those produced blocks
![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUbsMCMRZ2tvAyvi74eU8rxpUrSjwfzKbnxFcduBYt3Ud/image.png)

**My witness nodes are updated to 0.19.5 (latest version) and I've sucessfully produced blocks again.**

<h1>What happened?</h1>

9 hours ago - the blockchain stood still due to a bug which allowed the user @nijeah to withdraw negative vests.

https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmS5uvTAH8Q78UCrLyJJCvdGRb4SjzEx4XATLXPo39T91P/image.png

A fix to the steem github was commited about 4 hours ago, which prevents those operations.

But for 5-7 long hours the blockchain was frozen.

Now, at the time everything happened - I was deep in dream-land, fighting bad steemians.

Luckily, I only missed 3 blocks due to my failover script disabling the witness node, until I woke up. Which is totally fine considering that most RPC nodes weren't available.

Long live Steem!

Awesome! Thanks for the update.  Also thanks for staying on top of things.  I appreciate all the work you do.  I had been setup to have a proxy vote for me, but I think I am going to go back and give a second look at that.  I will definitely be voting for you.

& Who The F... is nijeah?

https://steemit.com/witness-update/@isnochys/who-is-nijeah

Coincidence?

Maybe.

Chances of it being a "coincidence", about as much as me hitting a bullseye in darts after a bottle of Jack Daniels and a slab/case of beer chasers!

Coincidence it seems. But worth to look into, even though it's important to treat people as *innocent until proven otherwise*, instead of *guilty until proven otherwise*.

Transfers are only displayed after the irreversible block number has been reached - which can take 30 to 60 seconds.

Thanks for updating us and fighting bad steemians! What are the current requirements for steem seed/full nodes and what are your server specs?

You've got my vote as I value Smartsteem greatly!

Thank you @theadmiral0!

Currently, the specs are based on 64GB servers. But with future hardforks, this requirement will go down.

Both of my servers have 64GB RAM and are stationed in two different datacenters.
