Sui waka stop after v1.72 crash bugs: big upgrade don restore di network
Sui outage dem hit di network for over 15 hours across two days after crash bugs hide kam insaid di Sui 1.72 software update. Di Sui Foundation tok say dem don push major upgrade we don fix di main wahala and according to di uptime dashboard, all systems dey waka as of Monday.
Di outages follow one Thursday incident plus two more stops on Friday (nearly 6 hours, then 8 hours 25 minutes, plus one 43-minute outage). Di crash bugs bin involve gas charging: when transaction fail because balance low, di system fit charge money first, cancel di transaction second, and make negative balances we fit make validators crash. One interim patch restore di chain, but e carry low chance say another halt fit happen.
Di Foundation emphasize say no user funds bin at risk and di network no reverse committed transactions after recovery. Validators don also fully fix related “randomness-state” bug after restarts.

Bearish
Di immediat price reaction to Sui outages na negative (about -11% from ~$0.99 to ~$0.88). Even with assurances sayin “no funds at risk” and “no rollback”, di event show operational fragility wey dey connected to recent software release, fit bring back sell pressure and increase short-term uncertainty.
For short term, traders go likely demand proof say the major upgrade don stop the same validator crash triggers from happening again (gas charging/negative balances and how randomness-state restart dey handled). For long term, confidence fit recover if monitoring show stability, but di reliability story don scatter for now—especially as similar outage patterns don show before.
