Starknet, an Ethereum layer-2 scaling network, has published a post-mortem report detailing the cause of a recent temporary mainnet outage. The disruption, which lasted approximately 18 minutes, was attributed to a state discrepancy between the blockifier execution layer and the proving layer. While the network has since resumed normal operations, the incident has prompted a commitment to enhanced testing and code audits to prevent future occurrences.
