Cronos chain has resumed block production: chain state rolled back to before the Tectonic vulnerability exploit

Cronos Network officially announced that the network has resumed block production and is fully operational again. Previously, Cronos paused block production due to a vulnerability exploitation incident involving the Tectonic protocol, and validators took emergency consensus measures to protect user funds, rolling back the chain state to before the Tectonic vulnerability exploitation on August 30.

The network has resumed block production at UTC time August 30, 23:49:01 from block height 90,896,189. Cronos stated that node operators can now restart their nodes using Cronos v1.7.8 and the latest mainnet snapshot.

The network is currently under continuous monitoring, and some protocols, RPC service providers, block explorers, and cross-chain bridges are expected to take longer to recover. Cronos stated that the team will release a complete event review report after confirming network stability.
