The founder of Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin, recently shared a very interesting post on Twitter that left people in awe! The post mentioned that Ethereum's performance over the past decade has been nothing short of a "Iron Man":


1. Ten years of achievements:
- Never stopped the machine
- No need for maintenance upgrades
- 3650 days × 24 hours of uninterrupted operation
2. Compare with other major companies:
- Facebook once went down for 14 hours, leaving global users staring blankly.
- Cloudflare directly abandoned 19 data centers
- Other public chains often run into problems.
3. The storms experienced:
- Fork War (ETC Split)
- Price plummeted (has experienced a drop of 80% from the peak)
- Various hacking attacks (like the DAO incident)
- Regulatory troubles (SEC is watching every day)
The best is:
- Banks may all go bankrupt.
- Servers need to be maintained regularly.
- But Ethereum keeps turning like a perpetual motion machine.
It's like:
- Other people's children occasionally get sick and take leave during exams.
- Ethereum is a top student who never takes a day off.
- Still score full marks every time
Insights for us:
1. Blockchain is indeed reliable.
2. The Ethereum network is hardcore.
3. Trustworthy in the long run
4. However, the short-term price fluctuations will still fluctuate.
So, even though the price of coins fluctuates wildly and makes people anxious, at least the Ethereum underlying network is really stable as a rock! However, investment is investment; never put all your assets on the line, rationality is the most important~ #以太坊突破3800#
ETH-4.56%
ETC-6.09%
