Heads up folks – looks like we're dealing with another major service disruption today. A bunch of popular sites just went dark thanks to Cloudflare running into issues again.
For those in crypto and Web3, this kind of infrastructure hiccup can be a real headache. When CDN providers like this go down, it's not just regular websites that take a hit – trading platforms, DeFi protocols, and blockchain explorers often feel the pain too.
Anyone else having trouble accessing their usual platforms right now? This is exactly why decentralization matters in our space.

Here we go again, Cloudflare is down and this time it's a complete outage. I was monitoring the mining pool's real-time data, but I just can't access it. Even the ROI calculations for the hash power network have been interrupted. This is exactly why I keep saying that real deployment opportunities emerge precisely during these moments of infrastructure vulnerability. With centralized CDN failures happening so frequently, the long-term demand curve for decentralized infrastructure will only go up.

Cloudflare is down again and again. As a retail investor, I'm even hoping for downtime now—this way, I have a legitimate reason not to watch the candlestick charts.

Cloudflare crashed again, and this time DeFi suffered as well... Every time this happens, I just want to move everything on-chain and rely less on these damn centralized infrastructures.

Again? Cloudflare is really teaching us what true centralization risk is, haha. People were saying three years ago that this kind of thing would happen more and more often, and now it seems they were right—pretty impressive. The most painful part for DeFi is exactly this: exchanges freeze up, candlestick charts disappear, wallet balances can’t be seen. That feeling... it really is like a trial from above for us. Honestly, I don’t think this is necessarily a bad thing. On the contrary, it’s an opportunity that forces the whole ecosystem to move toward real decentralization; otherwise, we’ll always be led around by the nose by this kind of infrastructure. But to be honest, for now, we just have to grit our teeth and push through.

Cloudflare is down again, and this time even DEXs are affected. Honestly, that's the annoying thing about centralized infrastructure—the exchanges are lagging like crazy, but gas fees are skyrocketing. [dog head]
