Re: [ANN][LSK] Lisk | Blockchain Application Platform for JavaScript Developers
Does anyone know what's wrong with the blockchain?
Transactions appear/disappear randomly, balances are shown wrongly, withdrawal from Polo doesn't work (txid not found), Bittrex wallet under maintenance..

The explorer nodes forked. We will restart them as soon as possible.
I'm interested, under what circumstances can this happen?
I guess, for example, when a few nodes don't receive transactions for a while (go offline etc.) and after they're online again, consensus is impaired?
(But wouldn't they just resync then?)
One reason for example was (which is now fixed in the next release update) a logic problem in block processing. This resulted in a CPU spike when processing a block while there are many transactions on the network at the same time. During that time where the CPU spiked to 100% the node couldn't do anything else, so he fall behind / starved. I.e. chances are high he lands on a fork.
