Polygon blockchain reportedly suffers network outage

Layer-2 scaling solution Polygon (MATIC) has not processed a block in over an hour and a half, leading some to believe that the blockchain network could be suffering from an outage.

According to data from Polygonscan, the blockchain’s last block and transaction was processed at around 8:35 pm UTC on Feb. 22.

The network has previously suffered network outages, with the last occurring on Mar. 21-22, 2022 due to maintenance required on one of the network’s three layers.

The Polygon team is yet to comment on the outage.

This is a developing story, and further information will be added as it becomes available.
