Base’s 33-minute block production halt this week is a wake-up call for layer-2 networks relying on centralized sequencers. When the main sequencer failed, the backup wasn’t fully provisioned, stalling the entire network until engineers intervened. As Base scrambles to improve failover protocols, is the real risk in these next-gen blockchains their dependence on single points of failure? Would you trust your assets to a system with this vulnerability? #Tech #blockchain #Layer2
