✅ Validator Node Issue — Resolution Report

As mentioned, a recent validator node software update caused our node to fall out of sync with the TON network.

During this period, we worked closely with the TON Core team. With their support, we identified the root cause of the issue and have fully resolved it.

🛠 Impact & Compensation

• The issue resulted in a temporary decrease in staking APY.
• To compensate stakers, we set the validator share to 0% for several previous validation rounds, ensuring higher rewards for the community during that period.

🖥 Current Status

• The validator is now fully synced and operating normally.
• APY has returned to normal levels and remains among the highest in the TON ecosystem.
• To prevent similar issues in the future, we are implementing an upgrade that allows Hipo Club data (such as wallet balances) to be read from multiple nodes.

💜 Thank you to the community members who reported the issue promptly, and also thanks to the TON Core team for their technical support.
