The developers of the IOTA crypto project this Monday announced the release of an updated version of the software for the basic implementation of the IRI v1.8.3 node, after a failure in their main network.
At a certain point, the bug caused an actual shutdown of the main IOTA network, while the rate of processed transactions dropped to zero. According to user observations, the network was unavailable for more than 15 hours.
“There was a borderline case where the IRI did not cover the transaction transferred between two different sets. When it was marked as “recorded” in one set, in the next it was ignored. This led to a distorted state of the registry, ”the publication on GitHub says.
By the time of publication, the problem was resolved. Note owners need to restart their clients using the latest software version.
