The protocol was disabled while the Firo team investigated a number of suspicious transactions .

The Firo privacy coin’s Lelantus protocol has been reactivated following a hard fork on April 22. The hard fork took place on block 365544.

The protocol was disabled due to a number of suspicious transactions while the Firo team investigated. This was the second recent obstacle for the protocol, which also underwent a 51% attack earlier this year.

“In February, an unknown attacker utilized Firo’s Lelantus privacy protocol to forge fake proofs in an attempt to generate new coins, which led to abnormalities in the system,” said project steward Reuben Yap in an email. “The Firo team swiftly noticed this and used the emergency switch functionality to temporarily disable Lelantus until the situation could be resolved.”

According to Yap, Lelantus was audited before its deployment on the mainnet. However, while translating the math to code not everything was caught – even in the audited cryptographic library.

Firo has since incorporated a variety of optimizations to harden the protocol.
