as far as structural outages go, this FB thing is relatively minor. a few hundreds of millions of dollars lost at most. if a similar outage hit AWS, cloudflare, akamai, etc, no one's credit card would work. i expect the losses would be in the billions if not trillions.

How would be people feel about increasing the $Juno community tax from 2% to 5%? #SentimentCheck Rational would be to make sure it is funded sustainably in the context of a bear market. Should we increase to 5%? Reply why or why not below.

@_elsehow When this happens, what do you think will happen to the crypto ecosystem? *wink wink* Is there a chance that the value will be wiped down?
