Service providing blockchain data to Explorer, Apps under emergency maintenance
During an upgrade to the latest database release, our service provider ran into an issue and had to stop the service that provides blockchain data to Explorer, Helium Vote, Helium App, and Wallet App. They're working on resolving the issue and hopefully have it back shortly.

API Outage - Explorer, Apps are behind. Transactions delayed
All - our API provider has let us know there's currently an API outage so data displayed on explorer, Helium Hotspot App, and Helium Wallet App are behind about 200 blocks. This also affects transactions recently submitted in the last 2 hours. If they have cleared, you're good to go. If they're still pending, please do not resubmit the transaction - they will automatically clear when the API is back up and fully synced. Our provider has rebooted the database and I'll provide another update in an hour or so. Your rewards are not affected - they will just show up when the API is back. Data transfer is not affected. While the main Helium API is still down, you might be able to do what you’re trying to do using community data sources such as: https://hotspotty.net/ https://hntscan.io/ https://www.heliumboard.com/ https://heliumtracker.io/ https://heliumgeek.com/

API Temporarily Halted - Chain Moving Normally
The public Helium API is currently not showing block and transaction data after block 1621471 due to a missing ETL patch for a new transaction type. The chain is still performing other activity normally and is not affected. Funds are safe and activity like Proof of Coverage and Data Transfers continue normally. The API, however, is behind the chain so apps that onboard and move Hotspots, transfer HNT and MOBILE through the API, etc. will be degraded until the API is able to process blocks again. Please do not resubmit transactions until patches are applied on public ETL and API instances. More information on these patches are being shared on Discord and will be published shortly.

Validators with a corrupted region cache are preventing block production. The core team is working with operators to fix affected validators to resume block production. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your patience. At this time, all transactions on chain will be unconfirmed until Validators begin producing blocks again. Funds are safe but activity like Proof of Coverage, Hotspot onboarding and movement, Token Transfers, etc. are unavailable. Data Transfer is not affected.
