The thing about this is that we do not have a system whereby we see updates like these. You know, these are necessary for everyone in cryptos to know. We should have, I guess, a software whereby we get to know firsthand about these interruptions. There are people who may be in need to cash out their cryptos but are unable to do so because of outage. This is what seriously sets us apart from traditional fiat currencies. We are just like a push button wherein a system can just shut you off at an instant without you having any legal claims against such system or management, if there is indeed any. And as to when it comes back, it is only they who knows. We seem to be always left at their own whims and caprices. I wish we can change this for the good of everyone.
