 <p class="paragraph">Millions of dollars in capital are leaving the Avalanche (AVAX) ecosystem amid a <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="major" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/major.html">major</a> network <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="outage" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/outage.html">outage</a> on February 23. At the time of writing, the Avalanche network is still down and is not producing any new blocks.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Notably, <em>DavyCrypto</em> was one of the first accounts to notice and report the issue on X at 13:50 (UTC). Davy mentioned “another major chain” in reference to Solana’s (SOL) major outages, which have become common in the past few years.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">Curiously, <em>Pop Punk</em> spotted an issue with Ava Labs’ official block explorer amid the major network outage. Despite the stall, the block explorer still increased the number of Avalanche transactions. Kevin Sekniqi, co-founder of Ava Labs, explained this was due to an implementation issue on the website.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">In the meantime, the network’s native token AVAX dropped 4.35% since the start of the “Block Finalization Stall.” Avalanche was trading at $36.75 at 12:00 (UTC), going to as low as $35.15 during the major outage.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Currently, AVAX has changed hands by $35.54, and the cryptocurrency market awaits the upgrade to take effect.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">Interestingly, this current <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="major" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/major.html">major</a> network <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="outage" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/outage.html">outage</a> on Avalanche is not the only <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="sell-" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/sell.html">sell-</a>off factor for AVAX in the short term. On February 22, the protocol unlocked nearly $400 million in tokens from vesting contracts. Since then, Avalanche has lost over $1 billion in market cap.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Therefore, investors must now be extremely cautious and wait until the situation settles to make better decisions. It is important to observe how the network will behave with the “Block Finalization Stall” fix and how the cryptocurrency market will handle any possible AVAX <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="sell-" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/sell.html">sell-</a>off.</p>
