· "Memory Pool Sniper Emerges", OrdiBots User Robbed on the Way

· Two Days Ago Announced Mint, Ordibots Becomes "Milestone of Bitcoin Blockchain Digital Art"

On the morning of November 29th, OrdiBots, the "first interactive 3D AR Ordinals project completely engraved on the Bitcoin blockchain," announced on social media that it had become the first project affected by front-running. (@OrdiBots)

Meanwhile, OrdiBots officials have stated that they have collected addresses affected by the memory pool sniper. In the coming days, OrdiBots will airdrop a new Ordibot to each address, which has custom features to make up for the advantage of early running.

NFT trading platform Magic Eden (@MEonBTC) also expressed its approval and pointed out that Magic Eden is deploying a solution to prevent this from happening in any future releases.

This accident occurred yesterday, but today OrdiBots' response has also gained recognition from the community.

"Memory pool sniper emerges", OrdiBots user robbed halfway

Yesterday at noon, several members of the community pointed out that OrdiBots was experiencing lag and a large number of errors, such as network error, can not fetch token, unisats wallet front-end not displaying, and failure after signing. Shortly thereafter, OrdiBots officials stated that they would soon release an announcement.

During this period, some community KOLs analyzed the reasons for this matter. For example, community KOL danny huuep (@huuep) wrote a detailed analysis of the issues in this incident.

He said that currently, most Ordinal markets use PSBT for Ordinal transactions - the seller signs an open and partially signed Bitcoin transaction, and the buyer completes it, and the market broadcasts the complete Bitcoin transaction.

However, the problem with this is that transactions signed by the seller can be signed by any buyer, so anyone can retrieve the complete transaction, remove the buyer's address and payment, and replace it with their own address and payment: "Using a higher fee, the new buyer will purchase the sequence, as this is the transaction that the miner will confirm."

He believes that if a market uses PSBT to popularize Ordinal coinage in this way, anyone willing to pay the fee can mint any number of coins from the memory pool: "The whitelist is not important, (attackers can) directly enter the memory pool and bypass the whitelist."

The solution to the problem is to change the trading method. In response, community KOL and Ordinals contributor DrJinglee (@ordjingle) pointed out that this kind of gathering behavior completely bypassed the launch pad's whitelist setting and directly hijacked it halfway: "Ordibot became the first time in Ordinals history to encounter large-scale road robbery."

Regarding this, Ordibots added in their statement that the new airdrop used to compensate for user losses will still be generated by Ordibots' parent company and will maintain its source on the chain.

Two days ago, Mint and Ordibots announced that they have become a "milestone in Bitcoin blockchain digital art."

In fact, just before this attack, OrdiBots had just released the mint guide for the OrdiBots 3D series on November 27th. However, during the Mint process on the evening of November 28th, the attack occurred.

But this does not stop the enthusiasm of the community. As an open source CC0 IP project, OrdiBots allows anyone to use digital assets for commercial purposes without attributing to the original team or creator, emphasizing the commitment to decentralized ownership and utilization.

Meanwhile, OrdiBots also promises not to profit or receive royalties from the secondary market of artworks, maintaining the integrity of the collection concept and avoiding it becoming purely financial speculation, in order to cultivate a community-driven ecosystem rooted in digital art appreciation and decentralized principles.
