Breaking: Polygon blockchain reportedly suffers network outage

The blockchain has not produced any new blocks or processed transactions for at least an hour and 40 minutes, leading some to believe its currently suffering an 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.
