In a Sept. 2 update on X, the team announced that “block production is back to normal,” confirming that most RPC providers are operating again while the remaining ones prepare to upgrade.

Starknet rolled back to block 1,960,612 to restore service, effectively removing about one hour of network activity. As a result, transactions submitted between 2:23 A.M. and 4:36 A.M. UTC were excluded from the chain and must be resubmitted.

The team pledged to publish a detailed post-mortem outlining the timeline, root cause, and plans to prevent similar incidents.

Before the fix was applied, the team told users it was investigating and working quickly to restore services.

Starknet remains one of the largest Layer 2 ecosystems despite the setback, securing around $550 million in assets, according to L2Beat data.
