Last week, the core developers of Ethereum blockchain came with patches for Prysm Labs and Teku clients. As both of these blockchains were facing finality issues. In a tweet, a Ehereum developer has noted that the Beacon chain was having some confirming transactions issues. However, the new blocks could be proposed, while the un-identified issue prevented their finalization.

Notably, this outage continued for almost 25 minutes. Then just after that day, a similar issue once again occurred that prevented block finalization for more than an hour. Regarding the recent finality issues on the Ethereum beacon chain, the self-described Ethereum Beacon Chain community health consultant also shared a video.

Furthermore, Ben Edgington, the Founder and product Lead of the Teku ETH2 Client also noted about the issue in his tweet. As he wrote, Lots of people asking how much ETH was burned by yesterdays inactivity leak. Back of envelope (assumes 8 epoch leak, 65% validators offline): About 28 ETH (c. 0.0006 ETH/offline validator). However, attestation rewards were zero for the duration, so thats ~50 ETH not issued.
