Microsoft Outage Draws Criticism From Crypto Community, Is Shiba Inu The Answer?

Source Bitcoinist

The team behind Shiba Inu recently took a swipe at Microsoft, one of the largest companies in the world. Microsoft just had the largest IT outage in history on Friday, July 19. Businesses around the world were grappling with a shutdown due to a Microsoft shutdown that occurred from a glitch. The outage came through CrowdStrike, a cybersecurity platform which experienced an issue during a software update. This interruption affected critical sectors and businesses, including the London Stock Exchange, airlines, banks, and doctors’ offices. 

George Kurtz, CEO of CrowdStrike, asserts that the problem has been identified and a solution has been implemented. However, the crash brought to light one of the issues surrounding centralized cloud infrastructure. If anything, it showed how major businesses and daily activities of users all around the world are at the mercy of a few centralized systems.

On the other hand, it highlighted one of the advantages of decentralized systems like blockchain networks. This was recently highlighted on social media platform X, with the Shiba Inu team making a comparison between Windows and the Shibarium network.

Windows Needs A Reboot, Can Shiba Inu Do Better?

According to a social media post on X, the official Shiba Inu account made a remark about the need for a reboot of the Windows operating system. The post featured a screenshot showing a Windows crash page, alluding to the recent global crash that affected many Windows users and businesses. This incident drew attention to the reliability issues of the Windows operating system. 

In contrast, the post emphasized the stability and reliability of the Shibarium network. Furthermore, the account noted that the Shibarium network on the other hand, never skips a beat. “Good thing @ShibariumNet never skips a beat,” the post said.

This statement underscores Shibarium’s consistent performance and reliability, even on days it processed millions of transactions. By highlighting this difference, the Shiba Inu account is boasting about Shibarium’s superiority. This comparison suggests that users and developers might find it more beneficial to deploy their projects on the Shibarium network, given its track record of stability and resilience.

Overall, the post not only criticizes the recent issues faced by Windows but also serves as a promotional message for the Shibarium network. At the time of writing, Shiba Inu is trading at $0.00001787 and is up by 4.5% in the past 24 hours. 

Many Bitcoin and cryptocurrency users have also pointed out that, despite the widespread bank outages caused by the crash, cryptocurrencies continued to operate without interruption. Bitcoin, for instance, even skyrocketed past the $66,000 mark during the crash.
