Pirate Chain: Rolled back blocks after being attacked by a minting vulnerability and released a mandatory update v6.14

The privacy coin project Pirate Chain has released a mandatory update v6.14, requiring all nodes, mining pools, and exchanges to discontinue the old version and upgrade immediately. Attackers exploited two validation vulnerabilities to mint approximately 39.82 million counterfeit ARRR in the transparent coinbase pool, temporarily increasing the supply by about 20%. Both vulnerabilities have been fixed.

After reaching a consensus among the community, mining pools, exchanges, and dPoW notarization nodes, the chain has been rolled back to block 4,176,944 before the attack, and all counterfeit tokens have been removed. Balances have been restored to their state before the attack, with the maximum supply remaining at 200 million coins. The new version will automatically re-index the entire chain upon its first launch, and a complete technical review report will be released later.
