Following a Solana outage that lasted five hours, the Layer-1 network has fully restored block production. According to a newly released update, the five-hour long <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/4-tokens-that-may-outshine-solana-sol-in-2024/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Solana</a> outage that started at 09:53 UTC has been resolved.
Thus, the beta mainnet is back to its previous state in terms of block generation. The resumption was made possible by validator operators restarting the cluster and successfully upgrading to version 1.17.20.

Mainnet developers will continue to monitor system performance even after the Solana outage has ended. Furthermore, after the primary contributors have finished compiling the report, it will be made public.
A severe performance decrease hit the Solana ecosystem early today, mirroring the effects of past incidents on the protocol. This is the first big interruption that stopped operations across the board, but there have been previous incidents on the Solana ecosystem since the beginning of the year.
The Solana outage, like with others that had occurred before, was said by some analysts to be caused by the system’s architecture. To put it in perspective, every validator communication occurs on-chain, similar to a transaction, to manage Solana consensus. This causes the Solana outage to occur after a dramatic increase in transaction volume and transaction processing speed (TPS).
A disruption in Solana’s services was unfortunately caused by the occurrence. As the outage highlighted the continuing animosity between the two networks, <a href="https://twitter.com/IOHK_Charles?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Charles Hoskinson</a>, founder of <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/cardano-founder-charles-hoskinson-doubts-bitcoin-l2s-potential/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Cardano</a>, mocked Solana.
