Is the chain down?

Block production across 10 networks, read live from public endpoints rather than reported by anyone.

Reading the latest block on each chain…

What an outage actually looks like

Chains rarely fail the way people expect. Far more often than a full halt, a network keeps producing blocks while something above it breaks — an RPC provider that most wallets rely on goes down, or a sequencer stops accepting new transactions while continuing to publish the ones it already has. From a wallet it feels identical to an outage, which is why the first useful question is simply whether blocks are still arriving.

When a rollup's sequencer does stall, funds are not at risk. The chain's state is already committed and the backlog gets processed when it restarts. The practical cost is waiting, not loss.

If blocks are arriving and your transaction still is not

Then the chain is not the problem. Check the gas price your wallet offered against what the network is currently taking, and look for an earlier transaction of yours that is still pending — everything behind it waits. Most wallets can replace a stuck transaction with a higher fee.

Common questions

My transaction is not confirming. Is the chain down?

Usually not. A pending transaction far more often means the gas price you offered is below what validators are currently accepting, or the wallet sent it with a nonce that is waiting behind an earlier stuck transaction. If the table above shows blocks arriving normally, the chain is fine and the problem is with that specific transaction.

What does "slower than usual" mean?

Blocks are arriving later than that chain normally produces them. It is common during congestion and almost always resolves on its own. It does not mean funds are at risk.

A chain says "could not reach". Is it down?

That means our requests to its public endpoints failed, which can happen because those endpoints are rate-limiting or having their own trouble. It is a statement about our view, not a verdict on the chain. Check the network’s official status page before concluding anything.

Where does this data come from?

Directly from each network’s public RPC endpoints — the same interface a wallet uses. We ask for the latest block and compare its timestamp to now. No third-party status provider sits in between.

Bospora reads these endpoints and reports what they return. It is not affiliated with any of these networks, and for anything consequential their official status pages are the authority. Waiting on a transfer instead? Track a bridge transaction.
