I recently came across a case that really moved me. A company's core server couldn't handle the load last night and went down directly, resulting in the loss of all backup data, with damages amounting to tens of millions. The department head was publicly reprimanded by the boss and even asked to compensate. But this guy had already made redundant backups on a decentralized storage protocol, and he demonstrated the verification publicly, which saved the entire project. Afterwards, he straightforwardly submitted his resignation—his holdings in related tokens had appreciated enough for him to turn things around.

This incident reflects a trend: in the era of cloud computing and big data, the risk of single points of failure is significant. Centralized data centers are inevitable to some extent, but decentralized storage networks can provide true fault tolerance. Whether for enterprise applications or personal data security, the advantages of this architecture are becoming increasingly apparent.

For crypto asset allocators, this is also a reference—those Web3 projects that truly solve practical problems are often undervalued in the long term. Innovations in underlying infrastructure will ultimately determine the direction of wealth redistribution.

Haha, this guy really won. Resigning and turning things around with this script is brilliant. --- Basically, he guessed the right direction. There is indeed a real demand for decentralized storage. --- Wait, is this story really true? It feels a bit too perfect. --- Centralized cloud services will inevitably have issues. It's high time to think clearly about backup plans. --- If the token's appreciation can cover compensation and losses, then luck is truly on his side. --- Underlying infrastructure is the future. This time, I finally see it clearly. --- Real cases are very rare. Most people are still sleeping in the centralized system. --- So now it's time to consider setting up a decentralized backup for yourself. --- This is what it means to let facts speak for themselves, more convincing than any propaganda. --- The key is that most companies haven't even considered the risk of a single point of failure.

This is the true wealth freedom script, not some overnight riches. --- Centralized issues will eventually crash, it's just a matter of time. --- Wait, has this guy already accumulated tokens? Then he must have bet right to feel so happy. --- Decentralized storage can really save lives, but most people simply don't have that awareness. --- From being reprimanded to turning things around, that contrast is truly remarkable. --- Honestly, it still comes down to having strong enough faith; you have to bet first to be so confident later. --- I agree with the judgment that the innovation of underlying infrastructure is important, but how many projects are really solving problems right now? --- The most exciting moment is when the verification is done publicly; the boss's expression must be priceless. --- This example is actually warning those companies still purely centralized—they'll have to learn their lesson sooner or later. --- The compensation part is really outrageous; if it were me, I’d just walk away.

This guy really won, he just resigned when he wanted to. --- Centralized systems are bound to fail sooner or later; it’s about time to do it this way. --- Damn, this is real-world application, not just hype. --- I was sweating when all the backups were lost, but he turned it around and won. --- People who understand technology can truly benefit from Web3; it’s not just luck. --- Why are companies still betting on centralization? I just don’t get it. --- This story is so typical; infrastructure is the real key. --- The token rising enough to turn things around shows the market still recognizes it. --- Single point failures should be handled like this; it should have been popularized long ago. --- His resignation letter was so well written, he just straight-up won by default.

This guy is really ruthless, a savior at critical moments, then walks away afterward, a perfect ending.
