EOS has just been released and has already bugged its blockchain, freezing all network transactions

The EOS blockchain was interrupted after an apparent bug in the mainnet software caused the network to stop unexpectedly and indefinitely.

According to an EOS New York post published on behalf of the 21 biggest block producers and standby nodes, the mainnet stopped unexpectedly yesterday, after which block producers started a teleconference to identify and discuss the issue. An hour later, blockbuster producers shut down their nodes and backed up blockchain data to help ensure no network history was lost.

The developers identified the problem at 13:02 UTC, and an update posted on the Telegram EOS Mainnet Updates channel said that EOS creator Block.one is developing a software patch.

"The root cause was due to how deferred transactions were handled. The fix is ​​being released soon by BlockOne. "

This software version, which will be issued under the tag 1.0.5, will introduce a correction of nodes. Once the block producers have updated their nodes, the blocks will be repeated until the last irreversible block - 1027597, according to CryptoLions.io - and the block producers will be synchronized with each other. Finally, the chain will be reopened to public access.

The EOS network was only activated on June 14, and this network failure occurred less than 48 hours after the blockchain went live.

Although block producers have gone to great lengths to keep users informed about network status, the fact that the blockchain is currently being debugged in a teleconference highlighted why many critics have argued that EOS is not a sufficiently decentralized cryptoman.
