Starknet, a major Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution, has been down for more than two hours as of January 5, 2026, halting transactions and dApps. The Starknet team confirmed on X that they are investigating the sequencer issues and pushing fixes to restore service quickly. This echoes past outages like the 9-hour September 2, 2025, Grinta upgrade disruption involving Ethereum RPC failures and reorgs reverting hours of blocks. Developers are working to resolve the issue and will provide updates as progress continues.
