IndiGo's recent meltdown from mass flight cancellations reveals a harsh truth: when one dominant force controls a rapidly expanding market, chaos becomes inevitable. The fallout isn't just operational—it's a warning about concentrated power in any high-growth ecosystem. Markets thrive on competition and redundancy; strip those away, and a single failure point can trigger systemic collapse. This isn't just about airlines—it's a fundamental lesson in why decentralization matters.

Centralization is a ticking time bomb—what happened with IndiGo is a real-life cautionary tale.

Wow, isn't this basically talking about centralization risk? IndiGo having a monopoly and then collapsing—this logic is no different from me going all-in on a single token... By the way, is this a buying-the-dip opportunity?

The tragedy of centralization—when one dominates everything like this... They should have learned the logic of decentralization long ago.

Centralized things are bound to collapse sooner or later, and IndiGo is a vivid example this time.

Single point of failure is a fatal weakness, and this applies to blockchain as well. If a centralized node pool goes down, the entire chain collapses. --- The IndiGo incident, to put it simply, was a collapse in verification efficiency. Without redundant nodes as backup, a single failure point took down the whole chain. --- That’s why I’ve always insisted that distributed validation must be forcibly decentralized, or it’s just a matter of time before disaster strikes. --- Centralized infrastructure is as fragile as paper. It’s easy to see why we need thousands of independent validator nodes. --- This is the point of consensus mechanisms—don’t panic if a single node fails; the other 999 will keep the network reliable. --- Applying airline logic to the blockchain is a disaster waiting to happen. No wonder some projects have worrying node concentration. --- Let the data speak: for every 10% increase in centralization, system vulnerability rises exponentially. --- Decentralization isn’t just a slogan—it’s a lifeline.
