a routing outage at provider teraswitch knocked 29% of staked solana offline as validators in london, amsterdam, frankfurt, singapore and tokyo lost connectivity; the network held finality by a margin of about 19.9 million tokens. separately in nigeria's delta state, a robbery at one tower node took 33 base stations down and a follow-on fiber cut at a convergence point cascaded to 103 dark sites, halting banking and commerce. two unrelated events showing that nominally decentralized systems still funnel through a handful of physical chokepoints.
