The internet blackout across Iran has now stretched beyond 60 hours, marking a major disruption to connectivity. According to NetBlocks tracking data, this widespread outage is impacting everything from regular communications to digital transactions and blockchain activities in the region. Such large-scale network shutdowns create ripple effects across global crypto markets, as they disrupt trading, node operations, and real-time data flows. For the crypto community, these incidents underscore the vulnerability of centralized internet infrastructure and the ongoing importance of decentralized solutions.

60 hours offline? That's why we need Web3, brothers.

It's been 60 hours and still not recovered. This is the fragility of centralized infrastructure. It should have been fully decentralized long ago.

Iran experiences 60 hours of internet outage, on-chain data loss, node offline... This is why I have been advocating for decentralized infrastructure; it was already written in the white paper.
According to on-chain tracking by NetBlocks, this incident once again confirms the fragility of centralized internet, and the hypothesis is valid.
Keywords: single point of failure, sovereignty censorship, governance decentralization... worth analyzing in depth through the DAO framework.
