The Maker Foundation, a non-profit organization in partnership with Coinbase and the Zeppelin platform, conducted a second round of an audit of a smart contract to vote on the MakerDAO network, during which a critical vulnerability was discovered. The developers initiated an urgent upgrade.

In collaboration with the @coinbase & @ZeppelinOrg we have been engaged in the 2nd round of audits of the Voting Contract. During the process of a critical update, it is live.

Thus, users who opened a steak in MKR in the management contract for voting (approximately 190 addresses at the time of release) should immediately withdraw funds from the old contract to a private wallet. Instructions can be found on the link.

However, the developers stressed that user funds remain secure, and the vulnerability has already been fixed. Those who do not participate in the voting, the problem and did not touch.

Add in the last vote on the additional collection was attended by 114 876 MKR (over $ 60 million).

Recall earlier it became known that a number of top managers left the Maker Foundation because of a conflict with the founder of the project, Rune Christensen, who allegedly made an attempt to centralize control over the Maker development fund.
