A massive outage has hit Amazon Web Services, taking tens of thousands of websites offline. This marks the third major infrastructure crash we've seen so far this year. For crypto traders and DeFi users relying on cloud-hosted services and exchange infrastructure, widespread AWS failures like this are a stark reminder of centralization risks in our ecosystem—even platforms built on decentralized tech often depend on traditional cloud providers for their operations.

Laughing to death, the dream of decentralization was directly shattered by an AWS failure. The retail investors have been educated by reality this time. AWS strikes again, our crypto world's decentralization is just a joke; ultimately, it still depends on Amazon's favor. This is called "I have 1000 reasons to decentralize, but an AWS failure overturns them all," no wonder it's the third time this year. Next time I buy a lottery ticket, I need to be more careful. Under centralized chains, all DeFi is just floating clouds. This move really makes me want to shout "foul" in a comic dialogue. "Decentralized platforms rely on centralized cloud services," this script is more heartbreaking than a bear market.

ngl this is exactly why i've been screaming about infrastructure fragmentation for years... aws goes down and suddenly everyone's "decentralized" platform turns into a ghost town. literally watched this unfold during the 2021 bridge exploits and nobody learned anything lmao
