@refactor01 "Solana (SOL) During the October XX Crash: Limited specific reports but Solana maintained high TPS (up to 2-3k in similar past events) without outages. Earlier 2025 analyses praise its ability to handle spikes via optimized architecture avoiding the fee surges seen on Ethereum. During the October XX AWS Outage: Unaffected with less than XX% of staked assets on AWS and validators diversified across providers like TeraSwitch and Cherry Servers. No downtime reported; the network continued normal operations. Overall Assessment: Solanas high-throughput design (average 1-second blocks) shone with no"

"Post-Mortem Report: Performance of Layer X and Layer X Blockchains During the October 2025 Crypto Market Crash and AWS Outage Executive Summary The cryptocurrency ecosystem faced two consecutive black swan events in October 2025: a massive market crash on October XX which wiped out approximately $XXXX billion in liquidations and caused significant price volatility across major assets and a widespread Amazon Web Services (AWS) outage on October XX stemming from a DNS resolution failure in the US-EAST-1 region. These events tested the resilience scalability and decentralization of various Layer"

"Event Overviews The October XX 2025 Crypto Market Crash On October XX 2025 the cryptocurrency market experienced its most severe flash crash in history triggered by renewed U.S. tariff announcements under the Trump administration leading to a broad sell-off. Bitcoin plummeted from an all-time high of $125689 to $102000a XX% dropwhile altcoins saw even steeper declines with the total market losing over $XX billion in liquidations within hours. This event dubbed Black Friday in crypto circles generated unprecedented transaction volume as traders rushed to liquidate positions spiking network"

"Performance Analysis by Chain Layer X Blockchains L1s form the foundational layer handling consensus and security. During both events most L1s demonstrated resilience with disruptions primarily affecting dependent services rather than core block production. Bitcoin (BTC) During the October XX Crash: Bitcoin processed transactions without major interruptions though fees rose moderately due to increased mempool activity. No outages reported; the network maintained its XXX% uptime streak handling liquidation-driven volume effectively. As the most decentralized L1 it avoided the congestion seen"

"Other L1s (e.g. Polkadot Near Aptos Sui) General Performance: Sparse reports indicate stability. Aptos for instance is designed for high TPS with features like Archon (30ms latency) and handled simulated spikes well. No outages noted across these; they benefited from lower market exposure during the crash. AWS Outage: Diversified infrastructure kept them operational with XRP Ledger explicitly praised for resilience. Layer X Solutions L2s aim to scale L1s but often inherit vulnerabilities as seen in centralized sequencers and AWS dependencies. Arbitrum During the October XX Crash: Finalization"

"Other L2s (e.g. Linea Scroll Starknet Blast) General Performance: Similar patterns: Crash caused delays (e.g. Scroll -XX% token performance post-event but operational); AWS outage halted many due to single-node sequencers on AWS. Starknet and Blast saw 88-85% token drops year-to-date reflecting broader L2 struggles"

"Key Insights and Recommendations X. Centralization Paradox: L2s promise scalability but often rely on centralized components (e.g. single sequencers on AWS) contradicting Web3 ethos. L1s like Solana and Bitcoin better embody decentralization. X. Correlated Risks: Shared L1 infrastructure (e.g. Ethereum) amplifies failures across L2s as seen in finalization spikes. X. Resilience Leaders: Solana and Bitcoin excelled with diversified hosting and high Nakamoto coefficients. X. Recommendations: Projects should diversify cloud providers adopt DePIN for nodes and prioritize multi-cloud sequencer"

"Conclusion The October 2025 events exposed the crypto ecosystems maturation pains with L1s generally outperforming L2s in resilience. While no chain collapsed the AWS outage particularly highlighted over-reliance on centralized cloud services prompting a reevaluation of decentralized claims. Solana and Bitcoin set the standard for robustness while Ethereum L2s must address infrastructure vulnerabilities to sustain growth. Future black swans will favor networks that balance scale with true decentralization. This report aims to contribute data-driven insights for the communitys ongoing evolution"
