物联网区块链Helium，遇到4小时网络 本周早些时候由于软件更新后发生的验证器问题而中断。此软件更新还导致交易完成延迟。
这种网络拥堵直接导致矿工奖励和代币转移受阻，这些代币转移因中断而无法完成。对将数据传输到网络所涉及的设备没有这种影响。
为了恢复正常功能，Helium 的团队通过向前跳过区块链解决了这个问题。共识小组在美国东部标准时间下午 2 点 20 分（美国东部时间上午 10 点 20 分）停止生产区块高度为 1435692 的区块。
状态更新提到由于缺乏网络共识，代币传输部分完成，因为没有产生新的块。
Helium 网络报告说它由 43 个验证器组成，这些验证器以固定的时间间隔随机选择，继续提供网络共识。
在解决过程中，Helium 的工程师提到，有两个原因导致验证者受到影响并停止在网络上建立共识。
Helium 是一种物联网网络，它采用物理无线电热点，允许用户在无线电覆盖范围内的任何地方连接他们的设备。报告的第一个问题是验证器的软件更新有问题。
软件更新是 v1.12.3 更新，计划和设计是为了将支持与移动令牌一起扩展到 5G 移动子网。不仅如此，“本地网络中断”也有问题。
Helium 的主持人 Digerati 提到，验证者的集中度增加是随机选择的共识组，在中断期间在同一 Amazon Web Service (AWS) 网络上运行，然后报告了一些技术障碍。
Amazon Web Services 是一种全球云计算和数据存储服务，它通过增强 Helium 等网络来改进它。
第二个问题是自动跳过功能的失败，该功能本应自行选择一个新的共识组，但似乎很难做到。
该团队的公告称“一个已知问题阻止了自动跳过功能按预期工作”，尽管“已知问题”仍不清楚。

网络中断是因为它未能选择不同的共识组。虽然出现了这样的情况，但它是以这样一种方式创建的，具有跳过一个块就可以在区块链中前进的能力。
据报道，这样做是为了让网络能够解决此类情况。在世界标准时间下午 5 点 45 分（美国东部标准时间下午 1 点 45 分），新区块的生产开始于区块编号 1435693。团队的声明确保他们密切监视并与验证器操作员合作，以便同步或新软件更新顺利进行。
