Curious why people think so w.r.t. (2). Anyone can submit a proposal.
Thanks for not reading the linked article, I'm explaining this very same example in the first paragraph :)
But a pruned bitcoin node does not hold the full blockchain for other nodes to download. A pruned Ethereum node, however, does.
Miners are already incentivized not to mess with the state.
Confirming this always was and still is the case. (Working for Parity.) However, this does not guarantee that such mistakes happen.
Parity does not run on the EVM, it's a local node processing a local copy of the blockchain. You can create normal accounts which are just private/public keypairs you have full control of without anything "being in the…
Not directly, but Parity multi-signagure wallets on Ethereum Classic, Expanse, Musicoin, and other public chains are affected as well.
The code was reviewed by two other developers and this is the standard procedure for any pull request touching any of our code-base. The mistake that happened here, that security-relevant changes were not highlighted…
