Solana Founder Reveals Fix for Network Glitch: Challenges Ahead Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko has announced that the
bug causing disruptions in the blockchain ecosystem has been
identified and patched. However, he warns that implementing further updates won't be a walk in the park.
The glitch stemmed from the
v1.14 upgrade, which proved more complex than expected. Yakovenko emphasized that dealing with such bugs is far more challenging than tackling liveness failures.
Since March, the Solana network has grappled with a high
transaction failure rate of 77.4%, impacting users and services alike.
To combat this, the Solana Foundation is taking measures like
Optimizing Computing Unit (CU) Usage and planning a major update (
v1.18) in April to enhance network performance and reliability.
