Yes, we've put a hold on finalisation while we sort out the issues with OpenSea.

Another update on the auction problems

@Arachnid has the issue with pizza.eth been sorted out? The auction timeline
..auction appeared to be over before the deadline for any 5-6 character eth name.
(sorry, hit enter before I finished typing)
Nick Johnson
@Arachnid
@kokobird As far as I can tell it just ended at the start of the period during which names were intended to end
Ranama
@Ranama
When will the auctions be started again and will you add much more time so if I will sleep I don't miss the opening time?
nrhirsch
@nrhirsch
Suggest you consider the short name auction a failure and return all ether and start over with validated (non buggy) code and annual costs similar to .com domains instead of 50 times higher for three letter domains!

@Ranama We're aiming to restart by the end of the week. We'll likely extend all auctions to end after DevCon.
@nrhirsch There's no mechanism to unwind the auctions that have already been finalised.

@Arachnid Thank you for looking into it! I still believe it's a different bug though.

Unfortunately there's nothing we can do about it, unless there are other auctions that are set to end earlier than they should.

This screenshot was taken on 9-28 at 10:26am UTC.

And this was taken 9 min earlier, showing that all auctions should still be active.

So information was missing on this auction (and possibly others?) showing when the auction will end, putting some folks at a disadvantage when bidding.

My concern is that this may happen to other names once auctions restart.

@Arachnid Pizza.eth also hasn't been resolved/transferred yet, and is still owned by ENS according to this: https://opensea.io/assets/0xfac7bea255a6990f749363002136af6556b31e04/19317736443486173356902146909528788640250823166821845648111631096379111265363

What do you mean? Wasn't the end time listed on the auction itself?

Pizza.eth also hasn't been resolved/transferred yet, and is still owned by ENS according to this:

Then I don't see how it could have finished early; we already finalised all auctions that ended in the first few hours.

@kokobird
That's exactly why I'm confused. All other auctions showed a countdown and deadline for the auction. I'll share another screenshot as an example.

Wallet.eth (before the person cheated the system) shows a countdown and deadline, as do all other pages for names.

But pizza.eth didn't, even before the auction deadline for the first names.

So it's possible that the deadline for the pizza.eth auction is ongoing.. but there's no way to tell from the website.

To answer your question.. no, the end time was not, and still isn't, listed on the auction itself. But so far it's only pizza.eth that I see this issue.

@nrhirsch
If all the transactions are on the blockchain why can't transactions related to the ENS short name be rolled back to a point before it started?
anders
@tabcat
i believe you could do that if you fork an eth client but then you have to convince everyone else to follow suite
Nick Johnson
@Arachnid
@kokobird According to OpenSea, it ended on the 30th at 4AM UTC - well after the auctions started ending.
@nrhirsch You're suggesting we fork ethereum and roll all transactions back several days?
kokobird
@kokobird

@kokobird According to OpenSea, it ended on the 30th at 4AM UTC - well after the auctions started ending.

Thank you for checking! So there was an issue? Per the pizza.eth screenshot above, the page was not showing the deadline prior to the end of auction.

@nrhirsch It sucks that someone cheated the system, but a strength of ENS is the inability for any intermediary to rollback the system.

@lindan8882_twitter
they halted the auctions because of a bug
nrhirsch
@nrhirsch
@Arachnid seems there should be mechanism where blockchain could be searched for specific transactions such as bidding on ENS name "apple.eth" and such transactions and only those transactions be rolled back by consensus of some Ethereum approved group and then recalculated. Why not utilize the information in a blockchain that holds all past transactions to correct exploits due to bugs in code?
anders
@tabcat
that would be like an on-chain governance that decides what transactions to accept and censor. dont think most people want that, eos has it though.
Nick Johnson
@Arachnid
@nrhirsch That's very much not how a blockchain works.

@DYevseyev Can you elaborate?
@lindan8882_twitter As the post says, finalisations are on hold until we sort out bidding. Please be patient.
