Manta Network addresses RPC flood, amidst MANTA airdrop hype

Manta Network successfully navigates RPC flood on the Manta Pacific chain, ensuring uninterrupted blockchain functionality and user service continuity.

Manta Network, a Layer 2 modular blockchain, recently confronted a technical disturbance within its Manta Pacific chain triggered by an RPC (Remote Procedure Call) flood at 9 AM UTC. This incident, while significant in nature, did not hamper the blockchain’s core functionality.

An RPC (Remote Procedure Call) flood is a type of network attack in which an overwhelming number of RPC requests are sent to a server or a network. This flood of requests can overwhelm the system, leading to slow response times or even making the service unavailable for legitimate users. In the context of a blockchain network like Manta Network, an RPC flood can strain the network’s resources, impacting its ability to process transactions or blocks efficiently.

Following the RPC flood, Manta Network updated its users about the situation. They assured users of their ongoing efforts to resolve the issue and, as a temporary measure, directed them to an alternative link to ensure continuous access to their services.

Amidst this backdrop, Manta Network is on the verge of a significant community-focused event: the MANTA token airdrop, slated for Jan. 18, 2024. This initiative is tailored to celebrate and reward the supporters of both Manta Pacific, a Layer 2 modular blockchain, and Manta Atlantic, a zero-knowledge Layer 1 chain built on Polkadot.

Amidst its recent technical challenges, Manta Network has also been capturing increased attention on social media platforms. The MANTA token, integral to the network’s ecosystem, has been trending recently, signifying a growing interest in the platform and its developments.

This rise in popularity is closely tied to the anticipation of the upcoming MANTA token airdrop, set for Jan. 18, 2024. This initiative is tailored to celebrate and reward the supporters of both Manta Pacific and Manta Atlantic, a zero-knowledge Layer 1 chain built on Polkadot.

Adding to its list of milestones, Manta Network recently announced the listing of its Manta (MANTA) token on Binance Launchpool, a leading cryptocurrency exchange. This strategic development marks the Manta (MANTA) token as the 44th project on Binance Launchpool.

The timing of this listing aligns with a period of remarkable growth for Manta Pacific, which has experienced an approximately 70X increase in its Total Value Locked (TVL), now standing at $858 million. This exponential growth has firmly established Manta Pacific as one of the fastest-growing Layer 2 networks in the blockchain ecosystem.
