Conduit ⚡️⛓️

After a custom config change on Friday at 11 AM PT, two Conduit chains, Degen and Proof of Play’s Apex, stopped posting batches for more than 24 hours. Upon resuming, the first batches triggered reorgs on both chains.

We’re working with both teams and Offchain Labs to restore service and minimize impact to users.

Launch an L2 or L3 in a few clicks, no code required. Ask questions about rollups in /conduit

We will share a detailed post-mortem outlining our decisions and a timeline of events. This config change was validated on testnet before rolling out to mainnets.

This thread is our only official source for updates.

Update:

Nodes for Degen and ProofofPlay Apex have resynced from genesis.

We’re now coordinating with the rollup teams on the next steps to get their networks back online.

Our immediate priority is our rollup teams and their users. We’re working with each team to determine the best path forward given their needs.

Conduit has snapshots and the full transaction history for both chains. Currently, nodes for both chains are resyncing from genesis.

I come from the future to tell you that you’ve ceased doing custom config changes on Fridays after this incident

any timelines on resolution / restoration of service?

astonished and furious.
in my lane.
seething.

(Should warn people that this is going to happen in the future)
