Summary

Starknet announced that it has fully resumed normal operations after a network disruption, rolling back to block height 1,962,681. Transactions submitted between 10:21 and 10:45 UTC were not processed, and users need to resubmit these transactions. The team promised a detailed post-mortem on the incident and its causes will be shared later.

Terms & Concepts
  • Block Reorganization (Reorg): A blockchain event where recently added blocks are replaced by an alternative chain, potentially invalidating included transactions.
  • Rollback: A reversion of the blockchain to a prior block height, invalidating subsequent blocks and requiring affected transactions to be resubmitted.
  • Starknet: An Ethereum Layer 2 network leveraging zero-knowledge proofs (zk-rollups) to scale transactions.
