WAGMI Times #006 - The Big Outage

Collect this edition. Only 6/6.

Scroll to the end for the special edition: Solana Edition 1/1.


Who turned the lights off?

Welcome to the blockchain.
The only place where people can’t have fun with the lights off.

April 29th got a special place in history after two major outages in the most famous blockchains.

Let’s start with the obvious: Solana.

Here’s what we know: it takes over 100 Gbps in transactions to break Solana and crash the network. Basically, it takes 10 USB type-Cs uploading Ethereum derivatives into Solana to break it.

Who would’ve known...

Solution? Ban NFTs.

Oh, don’t take our word for it... Take Solana’s validator’s, who actually suggested blocking certain types of transactions.

Should we call Elon to buy Solana over and actually decentralize it once and for all?


On the Otherside, things went $APE shit crazy on Ethereum.

The most anticipated piece of land in the Metaverse launched allowing only KYC wallets, creating a blottleneck that crashed Ethereum for a couple of hours.

Gas fees were so high during that period that people were cashing out their children’s college tuition money to cover up the cost.

Priorities, am I right?


As if things weren’t great already, the market sentiment spoke loud.

“Down only”, Twitter says.

Prepare for an Okay Bears market, which, by the way, has been going down by a lot.

Just because I didn’t mint one, doesn’t mean I’m fudding, okay Bears?

HERE’S THE SOLANA EDITION:
