Ontology mainnet back after 41-hour halt, vulnerability still undisclosed

The team said no funds from the network were lost but has not yet named the ecosystem project or the vulnerability behind the shutdown. The layer-one network stopped producing blocks on October 10 around 16:43 UTC. A pressing warning about a project running on the chain set off the halt, Ontology’s announcements said. The team coordinated with most of its consensus nodes to halt the new blocks. Transactions stopped settling. Ontology framed its move as a precaution against a potential threat to network assets. It did not say what project the alarm was triggered by, or what the weakness was.
