IsDown continuously monitors the Helium status page and multiple sources to provide up-to-date information. Check back with us for the latest Helium uptime status.

Outage Details

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.
