Linea resumed block production after a temporary outage affecting its mainnet sequencer early morning on Wednesday.
The Consensys-backed Ethereum Layer 2 network halted block production at approximately 1:25 a.m. ET on Wednesday, after producing block 23145386. Block production resumed at 2:32 a.m. ET, indicating a 67-minute gap.
While Linea has not disclosed the root cause of the outage, it announced that it has identified the issue and implemented a fix, according to the network's status page.
The outage comes ahead of Linea's token generation event (TGE) scheduled for later today. The event includes the airdrop of more than 9.36 billion LINEA tokens to eligible addresses.
The airdrop claims period runs for 90 days from Sept. 10 to Dec. 9. Any unclaimed tokens will return to the Linea Consortium Ecosystem Fund to support the Linea and Ethereum ecosystems. A snapshot was previously taken in July.
