Ripple restores XRP Ledger after 64-minute outage – What went wrong? – BitRss

• The XRP ($2.52) Ledger faced an hour-long outage on the 5th of February. 
• Ripple’s CTO noted that the network could have “self-healed.”

Ripple’s blockchain, XRP Ledger, resumed operations after briefly going through a network outage that lasted about 64 minutes on the 5th of February. 

According to Ripple’s CTO, David Schwartz, the disruption was caused by a ‘network drift’ after the validations (block production) failed to be published despite running consensus.
