Overview
- Block production slowed early on January 5 after a 09:53 UTC alert and progressed to a full halt, with the incident still unresolved and no estimated recovery time.
- Engineers reported debugging a mismatch between block execution and the proving pipeline, with certain transactions suspected of triggering the fault.
- Transactions are not confirming and decentralized applications on Starknet are currently nonfunctional.
- On-chain indicators point to stalled execution rather than state loss, suggesting user funds remain secure on Ethereum.
- STRK traded roughly flat near $0.089 as community commentary resurfaced concerns linked to the September 2025 Grinta disruption.
