Solana Nearly Halted Finalization Due to an Outage

On August 12th, a routing failure at infrastructure provider TeraSwitch caused approximately 90 Solana validators, representing 28.83% of staked SOL, to go offline simultaneously. This brought the network dangerously close to the 33.34% threshold at which transaction finality would halt, stopping the blockchain. The incident, highlighted by Marinade Finance, lasted about 33 minutes before routing was restored. The affected validators missed out on roughly 333 SOL in rewards during the downtime. The event underscored significant risks from infrastructure concentration, as TeraSwitch alone managed validators with 27.34% of the total staked SOL prior to the outage. Marinade Finance stated it would revise limits on validator distribution across autonomous systems and data centers to improve resilience. Some major operators, like Coinbase, already distribute infrastructure across multiple providers with backup servers to mitigate such single points of failure. The incident echoes a 2022 event where provider Hetzner, hosting ~40% of validators, disconnected nodes, though the network remained operational.

Solana Trading Halted at 86%, with 28% of Stakes Remaining Inaccessible

On Wednesday, August 12, the Solana network came within 14% of a complete outage, narrowly avoiding a crash after 28.83% of staked $SOL fell out of consensus. The issue stemmed from a payment delay at hosting provider Teraswitch, which affected several data centers and caused nearly 90 validators to go offline. Had the unaccounted staked $SOL reached 33.34%, the network would have halted. The incident, which lasted 33 minutes, was resolved after Teraswitch engineers identified and isolated a problematic router. During the outage, validators missed approximately 333 SOL in rewards, valued around $25,600, with losses absorbed by operators, not stakers. Major validators like Helius were affected, though services like laine and Cogent Crypto recovered smoothly. This near-miss occurred just two days after Solana marked 30 months of uninterrupted uptime, a streak previously broken by a five-hour outage in February 2024. Network reliability improvements, including QUIC transport, priority fees, and the launch of the independent Firedancer client in late 2025, are designed to prevent single points of failure. Solana's status page continues to report 100% uptime for the past 90 days.

Today, the Largest Alternative Cryptocurrency Narrowly Avoided a Catastrophe

Today, the Solana network narrowly avoided a catastrophic halt due to a routing error that simultaneously took many validators offline. At its peak, 28.83% of staked SOL became non-transactional, bringing the network within 86% of the critical 33.34% threshold where block finalization would have stopped. While block production continued and a full network outage was averted, the incident highlighted the risk of a "finality halt." The problem originated from a misconfigured default route from a Teraswitch data center in Miami, which was propagated to centers in Europe and Asia-Pacific. This caused traffic loss in 12 locations, including London, Amsterdam, and Singapore. The issue was identified within 10 minutes, but some validators took about 33 minutes to recover fully. Analysis by Marinade Finance revealed significant infrastructure concentration risk. Approximately 118.89 million SOL (over a quarter of the total stake) is hosted within a single autonomous system (AS20326), and about 94% of it went offline during the event. Furthermore, stakes worth around 14.1 million SOL on other platforms were also affected, raising concerns that provider-based concentration metrics may underestimate true correlation risks. The incident resulted in roughly 333 SOL in missed staking rewards for the 90 impacted validators.

BNB Chain’s BEP-675 Proposal Targets Faster Block Building

BNB Chain has proposed BEP-675, a draft upgrade aimed at increasing network throughput by optimizing the block production process. The core change introduces blind signing, allowing builders to submit pre-executed blocks directly to validators. This is designed to eliminate redundant execution work, potentially reducing a validator's critical path execution time from 125ms to 15ms. Initial testnet results indicate a possible doubling of throughput. Unlike scaling via larger blocks or shorter block times, this proposal focuses on workflow efficiency. It's important to note BEP-675 is currently a draft under the Pasteur hard fork timeline and is not active on the mainnet. If successfully implemented, it would provide BNB Chain with more performance headroom to support its high-activity ecosystem.

MoneyGram Expands Cash and Cryptocurrency Conversion Service to Solana

MoneyGram has expanded its "Ramps" service for cash-to-crypto conversion to the Solana blockchain. The move extends its existing service from the Stellar network, making Solana the second supported blockchain. The integration enables wallets, exchanges, and developers on Solana to offer users the ability to convert between fiat currency and cryptocurrency through MoneyGram's vast retail network, which serves over 60 million customers across nearly 500,000 locations in more than 170 countries. The Rift wallet has become the first Solana wallet to integrate the Ramps service. Through a single API within the Solana Developer Platform, developers can now incorporate MoneyGram's fiat on- and off-ramp infrastructure directly into their applications, eliminating the need for building custom banking integrations. MoneyGram's expansion onto Solana is part of a broader strategy to embed its services across multiple blockchain ecosystems. This follows the company's move in June to become a validator on the Solana network, staking SOL tokens and processing transactions.

MoneyGram expands crypto cash ramps to Solana

Global remittance firm MoneyGram has expanded its Ramps service to the Solana blockchain, enabling wallets, exchanges, and developers on the network to offer cash-to-crypto and crypto-to-cash conversions. Previously only operating on Stellar, Solana is the second blockchain supported. The Solana wallet Rift is the first to integrate the service. MoneyGram, with over 60 million customers and nearly 500,000 locations across 170+ countries, now provides Solana developers access to its payment network via a single API. Ramps supports cash deposits in over 25 countries and withdrawals in over 170. The service is integrated into the Solana Developer Platform, allowing developers to incorporate MoneyGram's fiat on- and off-ramps without building their own banking integrations. This launch is part of MoneyGram's broader plan to deploy Ramps across multiple blockchain ecosystems, following its recent role as a Solana validator and its participation in the Solana Developer Platform.

Solmate Continues to Buy Up SOL

Solmate Infrastructure (NASDAQ: SLMT), a company specializing in blockchain, staking, and AI solutions, has purchased an additional 1,001 SOL. This acquisition brings the company's total holdings to approximately 1.26 million SOL. The purchase coincides with Solana validators supporting proposals to reduce the issuance of new SOL tokens and increase the volume of tokens burned through network fees, changes that could impact Solana's long-term economic model by slowing supply growth. Solmate plans to stake the acquired SOL through its institutional validator infrastructure, aiming to increase its participation in the Solana network and earn additional staking rewards. This move is part of Solmate's broader strategy to develop infrastructure for institutional engagement within the Solana ecosystem, building up its SOL reserves while expanding its validator operations, staking services, and partnerships.

Fierce backlash to Ethereum’s EIP-8363 staking proposal

Ethereum's EIP-8363 proposal, aiming to taper and eventually stop issuance rewards once 50% of ETH is staked, has sparked intense debate. Proponents, including authors Justin Drake and Jerome de Tychey, argue the network is overpaying for diminishing security gains, unfairly diluting non-stakers. However, critics from across the ecosystem fiercely oppose it. They contend the proposal could severely damage decentralization by making solo staking uneconomical, disproportionately favoring large institutional players. It's also seen as a threat to DeFi, where staking derivatives are deeply integrated as collateral. Figures like Ether.fi's Mike Silagadze and Aave's Stani Kulechov warn it could destabilize lending markets and drive capital to other yield-bearing assets. Furthermore, critics like Bitwise's Dr. Steve Berryman argue the "problem" of excessive staking is overstated, with market forces naturally capping participation, and that Ethereum's sub-1% inflation is not burdensome. A core criticism is that the change undermines the predictability and stability valued by institutions, creating harmful uncertainty. The rushed publication timeline ahead of a hard fork deadline also drew ire. The backlash highlights the extreme difficulty of altering Ethereum's economic foundations, where any adjustment creates clear winners and losers.

World Chain Unveils Full Block Access Lists to Boost Blockchain Scalability

World Chain has announced the launch of complete block access lists on its Mainnet, set for August 17. This enhancement, building upon the EIP-7928 protocol, is designed to solve a key scalability challenge by boosting transaction throughput without requiring validators to upgrade to more powerful hardware. Traditionally, validators must re-execute transactions sequentially to verify a block. World Chain's architecture, using its "flashblock" system to broadcast access list data every 200 milliseconds, enables validators to check independent transactions in parallel across multiple CPU cores. This approach allows the network to target throughputs up to one gigagas per second while keeping validation latency and hardware requirements stable, as confirmed by internal testnet evaluations. Implemented via a runtime flag rather than a hard fork, this upgrade allows for a smoother transition. As the first operational implementation of streaming EIP-7928 access lists, it contributes to Ethereum's broader scaling roadmap. World Chain is an L2 network built on the OP Stack, focused on global accessibility and applications like stablecoin finance and remittances, underpinned by World ID's proof of humanity.

Writing Censorship Resistance into the Protocol: Who Decides If an Ethereum Transaction Can Be On-Chained?

Building censorship resistance into the protocol: who decides if an Ethereum transaction gets into a block? In Ethereum, censorship resistance is a technical capability, not a political stance. A key challenge emerges from the current Proposer-Builder Separation (PBS) model, where specialized Builders construct most blocks. This centralizes the power to include transactions, creating risks, as Builders can exclude certain transactions under external pressure. The core problem is ensuring any transaction following protocol rules gets a fair chance to enter a block. To address Builder dominance, Ethereum researchers are exploring Inclusion Lists—mechanisms allowing validators to specify transactions that must be included if valid and space permits. Two primary proposals are detailed: 1. **FOCIL (Fork-Choice Enforced Inclusion Lists)**: Distributes the power to create an inclusion list from a single Proposer to a randomly selected committee of validators. If a Builder ignores the committee's aggregated list, the network's consensus rules will reject the block, making censorship costly. 2. **FairFIL (Fair Forward Inclusion Lists)**: Focuses on accountability and economic disincentives. Builders must publicly list valid transactions they exclude, creating a verifiable record. Persistently censoring transactions by omitting them from this list can lead to escalating penalties, including loss of block rewards. For users, these mechanisms aim to improve transaction inclusion certainty without changing how they interact with wallets. Valid, fee-paying transactions should no longer be indefinitely delayed by a Builder's choice. While Builders retain control over transaction ordering for MEV extraction, their gatekeeping power over *who gets in* is constrained. Current status: FOCIL is advancing in Ethereum's development pipeline, while FairFIL is an earlier-stage research proposal. Ultimately, Ethereum's approach acknowledges that not all participants will remain neutral. The goal is to make censorship observable, expensive, and unsustainable through protocol-level rules, moving the network's credible neutrality from a social promise to a technically enforced property.
