Ontology Halts Mainnet Block Production Over Potential Security Concern

Ontology's mainnet block production has been temporarily halted due to a potential security concern identified during a routine security check. The decision was made as a preventative measure, and no timeframe has been specified for restarting the network.

According to Ontology, user assets are unaffected, with ONT, ONG, and other on-chain assets remaining secure. However, transactions will not be processed until the security review is complete.

The security review continues, with developers and network validators reviewing the mainnet and related components to determine whether the potential concern poses a real security risk.
