Sui experienced another mainnet network stall on <\/span>May 29<\/b>. It comes just hours after the blockchain restored activity following a previous outage tied to a software bug in its validator infrastructure.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Sui team confirmed the renewed disruption in a post on X. It warned that “network activity may be paused at this time” while engineers investigated the issue.<\/span><\/p>\n

The latest incident followed a nearly six-hour outage on <\/span>May 28<\/b> that temporarily halted mainnet settlement across the network.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Sui’s public status page, the earlier disruption lasted <\/span>5 hours and 55 minutes<\/b>. It was classified as a “major outage” affecting mainnet settlement.<\/span><\/p>\n

Validator recovery required coordinated software upgrade<\/b><\/h2>\n

Sui previously said network activity resumed after identifying a “crash bug in the gas charging logic” introduced in the network’s 1.72 release.<\/span><\/p>\n

The status page timeline showed the issue was first flagged shortly after <\/span>7 a.m. Pacific time on May 28<\/b>, before engineers identified the problem, roughly 20 minutes later.<\/span><\/p>\n

By around <\/span>12:40 p.m. Pacific tim<\/b>e, Sui said a fix was rolling out to validators. The network later confirmed activity resumed after “>2\/3 of stake have upgraded to the fix,” indicating recovery required coordinated validator participation to restore consensus.<\/span><\/p>\n

The team said it would continue monitoring the network for additional issues after the restart.<\/span><\/p>\n

Status data showed validator disruption while RPC nodes remained operational<\/b><\/h2>\n

Infrastructure data published during <\/span>the incident<\/span><\/a> suggested the disruption primarily affected validator operations rather than public RPC access.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sui’s uptime dashboard showed that validator services experienced a major outage, while public RPC nodes continued reporting 100% uptime during the same period.<\/span><\/p>\n

That distinction indicates users and applications may still have been able to reach public network endpoints even while transaction settlement and validator consensus were disrupted.<\/span><\/p>\n

The renewed stall now raises broader operational questions after the network resumed activity only hours earlier.<\/span><\/p>\n

Repeated interruptions following a coordinated recovery effort could place additional scrutiny on software rollout procedures, validator synchronization, and recovery reliability during network-wide incidents.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sui said a full incident review would be released in the coming days.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Final Summary<\/b><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Sui experienced another network stall hours after restoring activity from a previous validator outage tied to a software bug.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Status data showed the earlier disruption lasted nearly six hours and required more than two-thirds of validator stake to upgrade before the network resumed.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
