Solana again suffered network outages resulting in poor performance.

The Solana blockchain has caused network connectivity and business downtime in its third phase in just a few months, and users are wondering if this is due to another DDoS crash or just network issues.

It is difficult to determine the extent and severity of this condition. According to Coinbase, Wu said blockchain and Reddit users reported incidents that slowed down the network and caused business slowdowns. However, Anatoly Yakovenko, founder of Solana Labs, denied at the time that there had been no DDoS attack.

This incident occurred less than a month after the last attack, and the network is known to have been affected by the operation of a large-scale automation due to the announcement of the platform's 1st DEX (IDO). decentralized trading system based on Solana. Radium. to block.

According to Wu Blockchain, the Solana network was paralyzed for four hours on the morning of January 4, UTC time, due to the obvious DDoS attack. Solana.Status shows that the network is fully operational with 100% availability at present.

Solana was paralyzed again on January 4 at 02:00 UTC. Users in the Telegram community said they believed the attackers were using spam as a DDoS attack.

Yesterday's announcement from Reddit's r / CryptoCurrency section also showed screenshots of Solana (SOL) users reporting DDoS capabilities and network issues due to SOL transaction failures. Coinbase also provided information about the "damage" to the Solana network that caused the SOL crypto exchange to fail in the past 24 hours.

User u / Set1Less wrote: "Why don't we use the program's personal status page to draw conclusions, especially if it's just nice information that claims to be impacting the blockchain. "

However, other users responding to r / CryptoCurrency posts from the r / Solana community questioned the validity of this request.

"So why not show the pictures instead of distracting the imagination of others?" DDoS attacks and crashes have occurred in the detector. When did it happen ? "

Solana Labs co-founder Yakovenko shared the same sentiment on Twitter earlier today, noting that network issues have nothing to do with DDoS and are simply "the pain of new marketing runtimes."

In an interview with Cointelegraph on December 22, Austin Federa, director of communications at Solana Labs, said developers are now working to resolve network issues, specializing in improving business metrics.

“The operation of Solana is a new conception. It doesn't use an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and we've made a lot of innovations to help our customers get the lowest cost, while having a full workflow at work, ”he said.
