According to Odaily Planet Daily, Zilliqa posted on the X platform that a slowdown in the mainnet block generation was detected around 15:12 UTC. In order to conduct a deeper study, Zilliqa transaction processing was stopped at 16:00 UTC, allowing the network to clear transactions in the memory pool and recover itself, and resume normal operation 30 minutes later. The Zilliqa team said that it will continue to investigate to determine the root cause and will provide further updates later.
