Unreliable

Who would be questioned if the total amount withdrawn from an ATM machine was less than the amount deducted from your wallet? I guess nobody.

Why bother cleaning your shoes when you are only taking a passport picture?
Funny both questions may seem however, they happen in our lives daily.

Checking the money withdrawn from an ATM machine and cleaning of shoes for a passport picture both scale equally. The machine and the shoes are passive players.

The conclusion is that, the world revolves on unreliable systems and failure is not completely impossible.

Transactions seized. Money could neither be sent nor received. Customers were worried as to when the networks were going to come to normal.

What was the gurantee that they would become normal? People could only live in hope.

If it happens here on steemit, the storyline will be the same. Cryptos fall often and who are into cryptos live in expectancy.

How would people live if one day they wake up from their sleep and realized; all networks are gone? No mobile money is working? All banking systems down?

Whom are you going to question? Lol. source

We just need courage to accept that our systems can not be fully trusted and hence we risk in everything we do.
