Cardano Network Disrupted by 'Poisoned' Transaction Attack A validation mismatch sparked an unexpected Cardano network fork as a user publicly apologized for sending the bad transaction.The price of Cardano (ADA) was down on Friday after the blockchain suffered an unexpected chain split, which was caused by a malformed delegation transaction that triggered a software flaw. That created problems for Cardano users, and prompted a public apology from the user who claimed that they caused it. Intersect, the Cardano ecosystem’s governance organization, said in an incident report that the divergence began when the malformed transaction passed validation on newer node versions, but nodes running older software rejected it.
