generates this block signing leaks, the miner can register a new one this way, a miner can forge solo blocks without using the original account passphrase introduction of staking contracts (sip 45) staking contracts allow participants to pledge a smart token with a specified lock up period to earn signa and/or another smart token distributed by the contract the distribution of a staking contract can be fed by topping up the contract with the required funds or by a continuous income from another source transfer ownership of tokens (sip 43) this type of transaction allows transferring ownership of any smart token, making it easy for business case owners to hand over the use case to a new owner without sharing passphrases phoenix wallets improvements both platforms of phoenix wallet (desktop

developers released a new white paper titled the burst dymaxion it described implementing a tangle based lightning network allowing for arbitrary scalability and anonymous transactions and payment channels using directed acyclic graph (dag) technology on top of the burstcoin blockchain although the development focus shifted away from this white paper's end goal and toward burstcoin's smart contract functionality, many of the required preparatory improvements were made and continue to benefit development one example is the development of the poc2 protocol, which eliminated the theoretical vulnerability of poc1 to grinding attacks john mcafee's tweet as a consequence of it, it made burst reach an all time high price of around usd 0 13 https //twitter

while the network stabilized in response to the attack, burstcoin initially implemented a hard cap on the number of unconfirmed transactions a node could hold in memory subsequently, a configurable limit was made available so each node could independently set limits according to its memory and computational resources 2016 burstnation because of differences within burst team, several members
