Robinhood Chain Halts Block Production for 13 Minutes Amidst Rapid Growth

Rapid growth on Robinhood Chain has been followed by an unexpected hiccup. The blockchain network experienced a 13-minute outage on September 4, halting new block production and causing transactions to go unrecorded during that period.

Data from Blockscout revealed the interruption, showing that no new blocks or transactions were recorded from approximately 20:53 to 21:06 UTC+8. This gap is visible in the explorer's data, with users monitoring activity noticing the discrepancy.

Rapid transaction growth since its mainnet launch on July 1 has drawn attention to Robinhood Chain. Daily transactions increased by a striking 38,350% from approximately 22,000 in the first week of launch to nearly 8.5 million per day by mid-July.
