IOT Proof-of-Coverage Beaconing degraded in Europe and AS923

The Core Developers have noticed that some Hotspots in Europe have stopped beaconing for roughly the last 24 hours. This is likely due to an issue that can be worked around in the IOT PoC Verifier Oracle. A fix is being tested.

Increased Block and Election Times due to Oracled IOT PoC

This is placeholder comms for a decision made by the core devs and the Foundation a few minutes ago. We will come back with more specific communications on what we did, why it was necessary in an urgent manner, and what's next. Core developers, validator operators, wallet and exchange operators, and others in the community have noticed significantly slower block times in the last 12+ hours due to a large backlog of Oracled Proof-of-Coverage. No action is required by Hotspot Manufacturers, Validator operators, Data users, or Hotspot owners. We expect to resolve after we clear the backlog. This could be due to a rate limiter that hasn't been implemented yet that needs to be addressed but in order to continue processing state channels, payments, burns, Hotspot onboards, location changes, etc., we believe the correct response is to halt the oracle that is pushing transactions on chain and let it recover. We will provide more details as we execute the steps defined in the blockchain ...
