Wu said that the Sui Foundation released a post-mortem report on the interruption event, stating that on January 14th, the mainnet experienced a prolonged outage due to internal disagreements in validator consensus processing. Validators were unable to certify new checkpoints, and transaction submissions timed out. The outage lasted approximately 6 hours and was unrelated to network congestion or transaction volume. User funds and states remained secure, with no fork in certification states or transaction rollbacks. The issue stemmed from a edge case bug in the consensus submission logic, which has been fixed and validators upgraded to restore normal operation. The foundation plans to improve detection and recovery speed, automate operational tools, and expand random testing.
