[Sui Confirms Six-Hour Outage on January 14 Due to Consensus Bug] According to a report by Jinse Finance, Sui has provided an explanation for the six-hour network-wide outage that occurred on January 14, confirming that the incident was caused by a consensus bug. However, user funds remained completely safe throughout the incident. The Sui team published a blog post on January 16, stating that a detailed post-mortem analysis report has been released, explaining the cause of the mainnet service interruption on January 14, 2026 — an incident that temporarily halted blockchain-wide transactions and checkpoint validation. The team indicated that the root cause of the failure was an internal consensus disagreement among validator nodes. They also emphasized that the service interruption was unrelated to network overload, external attacks, or security breaches, and that user assets remained secure throughout the incident.
