Can someone explain why coins need to be split to do the dust storm? Can the coins ever be joined back together?
I used to believe this true, it is for most crypto.
After our initial dust storm though, I read and iirc it was from chia themselves.
The statement went along the lines of anything under 5000 mojos was considered dust and didn’t help prioritise a tx.
To my mind, 5000 should have clear priority over 1 or 10, but it would seem possibly not.
I dont think you can rejoin split coins.
They may appear whole when viewed in a wallet , but will be lots of smaller bits.
My node has fared well despite only being a fx8350.
I’ve 2 responses pushed to 5 to 10s but thats sell for last 24hrs.
I did lose sync for 40 blocks a few days ago.
I have noticed orphan signage pints have jumped to near 40%.
Perhaps this is actually a fee attack.
