Real engineering culture difference. Here's the founder of Solana tweeting 150+ hours of mainnet downtime, including 4.5 hours last year--cause undetermined (!)--as if NBD. "We'll get to three 9s of uptime in a decade." Ethereum has zero downtime since launch. https://x.com/aeyakovenko/status/1922713025825444099

The closest Ethereum's had to downtime is some large gas spikes, but that's: 1. unavoidable in a permissionless protocol 2. still way better than even 10m of hard downtime, let alone 4h+ 3. mitigated by upcoming L1 scaling

Every major Solana outage is followed by a “fix” that just makes the network more centralized SWQoS is a great example after the 2022 downtime, they solved it by giving more network access to big stakers https://www.helius.dev/blog/stake-weighted-quality-of-service-everything-you-need-to-know

🤦♂️ this is just how math works. 99.9% uptime with 150 hours of downtime requires 17 total years. 150 hours / (1-0.999) = 150,000 hours

I'm probably the minority here but there is significantly more consumer adoption on Solana therefore the downtime is excused

I don’t think any other hard enterprise tech could sell with three 9s
