Last week's chaos hit hard—a major derivatives marketplace went dark for over 10 hours, grinding trading to a halt. Turns out? Someone at a CyrusOne facility made a costly mistake. The incident exposed how vulnerable even tier-one financial infrastructure remains to basic human errors. When centralized systems controlling billions in positions fail this spectacularly, it's a stark reminder why distributed architectures matter. Markets recovered, but trust? That takes longer to rebuild.

The AI system was down for 10 hours, and billions of dollars just vanished like that. It's truly unbelievable.

A single person's mistake can freeze billions in the market. That's why I've always been advocating for decentralization.

A human error caused a 10-hour outage, and a system controlling tens of billions in positions just collapsed like that... The fragility of centralization is fully exposed.

A simple human error can bring it down for ten hours, and this is still called financial infrastructure…
