The Sui mainnet has resumed operation, confirming that both outages were caused by the same software defect

According to the official announcement from Sui Network, the Sui mainnet has resumed normal operation, and transaction processing and network activity have both returned to normal. The official disclosure states that the two network outages that occurred yesterday and the day before were related to an interaction issue between the "Address Balances" feature introduced in version 1.72 and the Gas billing logic. The Sui core team indicated that the fix deployed yesterday was only a temporary measure aimed at quickly restoring network operation, but this solution carried a known and low-probability risk of outage. Today, the network triggered a variant of the known issue, causing the mainnet to pause again. Currently, the validators have completed the deployment of a long-term fix, and the official claims that the known issues caused by the original vulnerability have been thoroughly resolved, with the network now operating normally. The Sui team stated that they will release a more detailed incident review report in the future, explaining the cause of the failure and the repair process.
