Results of the week: 1.The developers launched the #Terra 2.0 main network On May 28, the Terra 2.0 main network was launched, which received the Phoenix-1 identifier. The promised tokens were credited to the participants of the #LUNA airdrop. #Bybit exchange was one of the first to add an asset of the updated project to the listing. The price of the latter initially soared from $ 0.5 to $30, and then sank significantly.

According to developer Preston Van Loon, the failure occurred due to "non-trivial segmentation" of new and old client software. "We suspect this is due to the fact that the implementation of the Sponsor Boost fork in the network has not fully occurred," he noted. Another lead developer, Terence Cao, confirmed that the reorganization was made possible due to different deadlines for updating customer software. 3.Solana's internal clock is out of sync with real time The other day it turned out that the internal clock of the #Solana blockchain lags behind real time by about 30 minutes.
