The Sui Network experienced a nearly six-hour outage on Friday due to a bug in a network update. This marked the blockchain's second downtime of 2026 and the second day in a row of disruptions. Normal operations have since resumed.
The outage affected the Sui Network starting Friday, according to multiple reports. A bug in a recent network update triggered the downtime, which lasted almost six hours before the team resolved the issue and restarted operations.
Users expressed concern over repeated outages, questioning Sui's readiness. Some compared it to traditional payment systems failing, highlighting reliability issues. Skepticism about the network's stability was common, with mentions of multiple downtimes in 48 hours.
