Več kot 1,000 validatorjev Solana preneha s povezavo, potem ko jih ponudnik oblaka prekine

Over 1,000 validators of the Solana blockchain went offline yesterday after their cloud provider cut them off, preventing more than a fifth of the Solana stake from earning rewards.

Solana’s blockchain validators earn SOL for processing transactions and verifying the state of the network, then distribute those rewards among stakers. When validators go offline, they turn “delinquent” and stakers stop earning rewards.

That’s what happened when a cloud service provider, Hetzner, blocked all Solana network activity on its servers yesterday. Earlier this year, Hetzner je dejal that running crypto nodes on its servers breached its terms of service.

While Solana has suffered many outages since its launch, Hetzner’s decision didn’t send the blockchain offline, according to Solana’s status spletna stran. 

Anatoly Yakovenko, cofounder of Solana Labs, the entity behind the blockchain, tweeted that affected stakers should move their coins to validators that do not use Hetzner. 

“Host your validator on a crypto friendly provider. Don’t go with the cheapest,” svetuje Guilherme Alberto, CEO of server company Latitude.sh.

Twitter user StakeWithPride Opozoril that Hetzner remains the second-largest Internet service provider for Cardano nodes. Midas, a crypto influencer, predlagano that Cosmos validators running on Hetzner use a different provider.
