What happened
This time the attacker is the same person as the last time. Both flo******now and sil******day are the account of the hacker. The two attack methods are also the same. The attacker points to FarmEOS. After placing a bet, and when the attacking contract receives a transfer notification, a large number of defer transactions are initiated, which delays the subsequent lottery draw of FarmEOS, which is the "transaction crowding attack".
