<p>Canto, a layer-1 blockchain, has been inactive since August 10 due to a critical consensus issue, with a solution planned for Monday, August 12. This issue has led to a complete pause of transaction processing on the network, bringing all activities on the platform to a stop.</p>

<p>Canto’s development team confirmed the situation through an announcement on the social media platform X. The team confirmed to the users that the disruption would make sure their holdings were safe. The issue, which has caused the blockchain’s normal operations, is attributed to a problem with consensus, a fundamental mechanism required for the network to function correctly.</p>

<p>The development team has planned an upgrade to address the issue and is ready for an upgrade on Monday, August 12, at 12:00 UTC. Once the upgrade is done, normal operations are expected, allowing users to interact with the services offered again. The delay in fixing the issue has raised concerns among the blockchain community, indicating the importance of strong consensus mechanisms in maintaining the network.</p>

As of press time, CANTO recorded $0.04526, reflecting over a 12% increase in the last 24 hours. This uptick has further impacted its market cap, which now stands at $19.83 million. Adding to this positive price action, CANTO’s 24-hour trading volume painted a similar image, with its price gaining 19.67% to $526,092. <img src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXcRCvnR4LBcD79CmGW6-hk_0cqPZB_wqoKjIjhyUmk5Q_afBVm168AllyGWiuJdb5Lg1f97AUcIgwGWstAhOOwmknEujlq2uNG2T_OzwdPExnhiphqLa74FaLO3WsZVqy8ANumIWHaHcFNQc7yLVh4xTe1O?key=4npJ0_0FQXMk5sNHDFP6Cw" width="624" height="356"></p>
