ZetaChain (ZETA), an interoperability-focused Layer-1 blockchain, experienced a six-hour outage on Thursday, halting deposits and withdrawals. The network’s interruption was caused by a consensus failure linked to a recent update deployed to a limited number of validators, necessitating a rollback to node software version 20.0.5.
At approximately 11:53 p.m. UTC, ZetaChain’s operations were halted due to this technical issue. The network’s team promptly identified the problem and began efforts to rectify it. By around 6:00 a.m. UTC, ZetaChain confirmed via its website that block production had resumed, allowing normal network activities to continue.
Meanwhile, “We will share a post-mortem tomorrow when we’ve reviewed the incident and replicated the root cause using a development environment,” ZetaChain stated. Despite the temporary suspension, Zeta Chain assured users that it would eventually process all pending transactions. However, the network later issued a notification regarding delays in cross-chain transactions resulting from the outage.
Following the restoration of its mainnet, Zeta Chain encountered additional challenges as its testnet also faced issues, ceasing block production due to the same underlying problems observed on the mainnet. At 6:25 a.m. UTC, the network announced it was resyncing testnet validators to address the situation.
