The disruption temporarily halted on-chain transactions, but developers have since restored normal operations, with most RPC providers now fully functional, according to the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Starknet\/status\/1962809499036618761\">latest update on X<\/a>.  <\/p>\n<p>To restore service, the network carried out a chain reorganization starting from block 1,960,612, covering roughly one hour of activity. As a result, any transactions submitted between 2:23 a.m. and 4:36 a.m. UTC were not processed and will need to be resubmitted by users. All subsequent transactions from the reorganized block onward will also require resubmission to appear on-chain.<\/p>\n<p>Starknet has promised a detailed post-mortem report, outlining the incident\u2019s timeline, root cause, and preventive measures for the future.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>Despite today\u2019s interruption, extended outages remain uncommon for Starknet. The last comparable unplanned outage on Starknet occurred in April last year, when a rounding error bug triggered a chain reorganization that halted the network for roughly four hours. Since then, the network has maintained near-continuous uptime, with only minor service hiccups reported.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Starknet is moving forward with its latest initiative following the ratification of Starknet Improvement Proposal 31 (SNIP-31) on August 21, which introduces Bitcoin staking to its Layer 2 network. Under the new framework, Bitcoin holders can stake tokenized BTC wrappers\u2014such as WBTC, tBTC, LBTC, and SolvBTC\u2014and participate in the network\u2019s consensus process, though BTC\u2019s influence is capped at 25% while STRK retains the remaining 75% of governance power. <\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starknet has restored block production after a multi-hour outage, with a detailed post-mortem on the incident expected soon.
