This post is actually really great for educating people about WHY they should use decentralized networks like blockchains instead of trusting a single point of failure.
But the title is not helping at all because it gives the impression that some sort of "blockchain" has been shut down (which would be way more interesting if something like that actually happened, since that would be equivalent to the bittorrent network being "shut down", which hasn't happened due to its decentralized nature)
I'm sure the point was not to insinuate that cryptocurrency will fail because of these incidents, maybe there's a better title for the website?
