Starknet Experiencing Back-to-Back Network Outages: Doubts Mount Over Scalability

Starknet, a leading Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) network, has experienced its second major shutdown in just two months. The outage lasted almost three hours on Tuesday, halting transaction processing due to a malfunctioning sequencer and requiring users to resubmit all transactions during the downtime. While the team claims this wasn’t isolated to one instance, as a 13-minute outage occurred in mid-July, concerns surrounding Starknet’s scalability have been amplified.
