Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko revealed on April 5 that the bug causing reduced functionality in the blockchain ecosystem, including transaction failures and a slowdown in block finalization, had been “identified and patched.”
Yakovenko added that while the Solana network glitch is fixed, implementing other key updates may not be straightforward.
In an X post, Yakovenko stated that dealing with bugs was more complex than keeping a network active and operational for users.
“Dealing with congestion bugs sucks so much more than total liveness failure. The latter is one and done, bug is identified and patched and chain continues,” the post read. “The former has to go through the full release and test pipeline. Shipping fast is impossible.”
Yakovenko’s announcement follows co-founder Raj Gokal’s post on X earlier this month, which addressed the overall concerns of the Solana chain and the deployment of world-class personnel to tackle the issues.
world class engineering teams are working around the clock to push fixes to improve the experience of submitting transactions on @solana.
I am messaging them multiple times a day asking how it’s going, and they tell me this is a very helpful way to contribute to the solution.
