Details on Recent Technical Issues
We experienced two technical events in early February.
Feb 4: In one data center, some nodes lost connection to the main network. Since more than one-third of the validators were located there, the network temporarily could not collect enough votes to reach consensus. After connectivity was restored and the nodes were restarted, consensus and normal network operation were restored.
Feb 11: One network participant ran identical validators on different nodes. As a result, two valid blocks could sometimes be produced at the same time, which led to forks and unstable network behavior.
Additionally, a bug was identified: on some nodes, a valid block could be rejected on the first attempt, causing the node to enter a syncing state and temporarily stop participating in consensus. This issue was fixed. You can update your Docker nodes, and a desktop app update will be released shortly.
