Solana narrowly avoided a halt this morning, with 28.83% of staked SOL losing connection and 333 SOL in rewards lost

Odaily News, Marinade Finance stated on the X platform that the Solana network came close to a halt this morning, with 28.83% of staked SOL losing connection, approaching the 33.34% halt threshold. This involved 90 validator nodes, with a total loss of approximately 333 SOL in rewards. The fault was caused by a routing error from service provider Teraswitch: an erroneous route from the Miami node was broadcast to Europe and the Asia-Pacific region, causing 12 nodes (LON1, AMS1-3, DUB1-2, FRA2, SGP1-2, TYO1-3) to lose valid routes. North America was unaffected, and the fault was resolved within 10 minutes. Marinade Finance pointed out that AS20326, an ASN hosting more than a quarter of the network's total staked amount, saw 94% of its staked volume go offline simultaneously during the fault, accounting for an actual 27.34% share, surpassing the 25% cap set by SFDP. Helius, the network's second-largest node, was offline for 33 minutes in total, with only a few nodes achieving smooth failover. Marinade Finance stated it will review staking concentration limits and push validator nodes to publicly disclose their failover capability information.
