So, the firm advised infrastructure providers to initiate indexing from a designated block to ensure smooth consistency in the process.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Conduit has taken measures to filter transactions from approximately five addresses, each harboring millions of failed transactions. It added:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;To bring the network online as soon as possible, a few (&lt;5) addresses were filtered during the replay process. These addresses have tens of millions of failed transactions and were stalling the replay process.
