Summary

Coinbase’s Base blockchain suffered a two-hour outage Thursday due to a consensus failure caused by an invalid block, halting all transactions until engineers restored normal operations. Though funds remained secure, the incident highlights vulnerabilities even in advanced networks — especially as a major upgrade, Beryl, was delayed just hours after the crash. The event echoes similar outages on Sui, reminding us that even cutting-edge tech can stumble. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
