Polygon Successfully Resolves Network Bug Disruption

The Polygon Foundation announced the successful restoration of key network functions after a software bug caused some nodes to become out of sync with the blockchain. This disruption affected the layer-2 scaling network’s consensus and finality, impacting RPC nodes responsible for relaying information between applications and the blockchain layer. The issue was resolved through a hard fork that addressed the root cause: a faulty validator proposal that led to diverging network forks in Bor nodes, which handle transaction ordering and block production. ]
