Update
The network is now in the Epoch Fallback Mode (EFM) and automatic epoch transitions have paused.
As a workaround to ensure that staking operations continue, the governance committee submitted a transaction (transaction ID: 05abc413e6426d83fef0c79a9f59c31b0194f26427b07ab0c1c9da7750cfba22) to advance the epoch.
We will share the plan and timelines around recovering the network from EFM and resuming automatic epoch transitions.

Identified
Earlier today, a system transaction failed to execute. The root cause has been identified and fixed however as a consequence of the failure to execute the system transaction, the network will enter the Epoch Fallback Mode (EFM) in a couple of hours. The network will continue producing blocks and executing transactions in the Epoch Fallback Mode. However, epoch transitions will pause. Staking related operations, which depend on the epoch transitions, will also pause. We will soon share a plan and timelines to recover from the EFM.
