📣 Aptos Experienced a 5-Hour Outage Due to a Game
posted 19 Oct 2023
Last night, the L1 blockchain Aptos launched a 24-hour crypto event.
During this period, users could (and still can) visit the platform to creatively mark a graphical canvas, using a minor amount of APT for transaction fees. After the set project duration ends, an NFT will be generated.
A surge of participants joined eagerly to create and add their crypto wallets, hoping for a potential second airdrop from Aptos. The increased activity overwhelmed the blockchain, leading to more than 5 hours of downtime.
The issue has been resolved, and the network is now back to its normal operation.
