Blur Bids Disabled Due to Offchain Infrastructure Issue

Blur bids were disabled late Friday night after a bug was reported that allowed users to accept bids that should have previously expired, but they've since been re-enabled, and the affected bidders will receive a refund today for two times the difference between their bid price and the top bid at the time.

The Deets

• The bug reportedly affected bids that should have expired
• Bid acceptance was disabled by the Blur team
• Implemented two additional redundant safety checks so that the issue doesn’t happen again
• 36 affected bids were accepted during a 30 minute period
• Team will refund those affected by two times the difference between their bid price and the proper top bid at the time
• Refunds will be sent automatically sometime later today (stated within 24 hours from 10:46 p.m. PT on April 21)
