Ethereum tools that were "frozen" last week due to a vulnerability in the Parity client remain unavailable.

Today, the team Parity published an update, which stated that it continues to seek a solution, and the final report plans to be published in a few days.

The update says that there are no ways to release jammed funds as soon as possible. Earlier, the lead of the security team from the Ethereum Foundation stated that there is no other way to access these funds, except to make another hard-core. At the moment, the community is discussing the possibility of carrying out this hartfordka within the renovation of Constantinople, which is scheduled to be held in 2018. The main proposal of the company at the moment is the implementation of EIP156, a proposal originally put forward by Vitalik Buterin as early as 2016. The purpose of EIP156 is to release funds blocked in certain types of contracts.

We spent the last few days carefully studying the possible options.

It is still early to make a final decision, EIP156 has been discussed for a sufficiently long time and has been supported by a variety of community members.

Our team is working on a solution that will suit most users.

As previously reported, the error in the Parity wallet code was accidentally used by an outside developer, which led to a "freeze" (t. funds remain the same where they were, but they can not be used) Etehreum for 513774.16 ETH, which is equivalent to about 160.8 million US dollars at current prices.
