The Solana blockchain network experienced a significant outage, missing its 100% uptime goal for an entire year by just 20 days. The network halted transaction processing and block production for approximately five hours, marking its eleventh outage in two years and the first major one since February 2023. Engineers and validators worked on a coordinated restart, with 70% of the network left to restart initially, and progress updates indicating 60%, 50%, 30%, 20%, and finally less than 10% of active stake needed to resume operations. The network successfully restarted after reaching the required 80% supermajority stake, resuming block production from slot 246464041. HTX_Global suspended Solana chain deposits and withdrawals to support the mainnet upgrade, stating that services would resume after the upgrade was completed. Normal operations have now resumed on the Solana network.
