What it means

Users and projects on Ontology notice that block production has resumed after the pause, and the network says its core infrastructure remained secure. Anyone waiting on normal mainnet activity can see that the interruption has ended, but the restart statement leaves one part of the fallout unresolved.

Before the restart, the mainnet was halted; afterward, block production was back up and the network said no funds were lost from its own systems. What changed in practice is that the pause is over, while what did not change is that the statement still does not settle losses at the unnamed ecosystem project. (per thedefiant.io)
