The Solana (SOL) network was unavailable for 17 hours in September after thousands of transactions per second were processed.
In an interview with The Block Solana CEO and co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko, he considered the possibility of the network shutting down again:
“I don’t know. Still not very important”
Yakovenko also put forward an argument for this interesting output. According to him, funds will still remain safe and all transactions will be processed. If you don’t care how long a transaction takes, there is no problem.
Yakovenko stated that Solana does not claim that it will never crash again, because such a guarantee cannot be given under all circumstances.
“It is not possible to say that the crash will never happen. To be realistic, I don’t even know if such a guarantee is possible in any network.”
