Geth version: 1.5.19-e7b198c1-20250728
OS & Version: Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS
Running BSC Fastnode with:

geth \
  --config /var/lib/bsc/config.toml \
  --datadir /var/lib/bsc \
  --cache 32000 \
  --history.transactions 0 \
  --pruneancient \
  --tries-verify-mode none \

syncing with geth.fast snapshot from 48Club https://github.com/48Club/bsc-snapshots
we tried several 48Club snapshots (different block heights), but each time bloombits percentage gets stuck on 90 and we get canonical block #59738693 unknown

Here is an example from the logs:
