Network stability refers to the consistent and reliable operation of a blockchain network or distributed system. It signifies the network’s ability to maintain uptime, process transactions without significant delays or failures, and resist disruptions. A stable network is essential for user trust and the dependable functioning of applications built upon it. This quality is often assessed by metrics such as node participation, block production regularity, and resilience to attacks.

News reports on network outages, consensus failures, or security breaches directly impact perceptions of stability. Developers continually work to fortify networks against potential disruptions, and significant upgrades are often aimed at bolstering this essential characteristic.
