Title: Did the Ethereum network ever shut down like $ONE did?

Did Eth have the kind of network problems at the beginning of development that happened to Solana and Harmony?

As far as i know since i were joining in the crypto and ethereum never faces such problem. If the blockchain got shutdown and that means such blockchain is not decentralized. that means that blockchain was totally centralized. How is it possible for a blockchain that was putting decentralization as the main thing to run its protocol gets shut down? Being decentralized means so many nodes are supporting the protocol and once a node gets shutdown and another nodes can back it to keep the protocol is still running. ONE and SOL are horrible blockchain. The only thing that i heve ever heard about ethereum is it was getting a problem due to the EIP implementation. Durning the implementation ethereum the blockchain became lag.

I'm not sure though but with a large scale like eth and with massive audits and test. I never seen eth shutdown, that would be a big terrible event. But I hear or read before, that there were such errors happened and huge traffic that eth can't be used properly not sure though if there is such history of shutdown.

I'm not sure as well but honestly speaking it's not the end, every new projects can have problems and bugs they will learn from their mistakes and adjust their system, there are many projects that are now big today but at their first few years they battled with different problems

Ethereum had so many issues in the early days, like the split with Ethereum Classic as a result of the DAO hack, but I don't remember a complete network shutdown. Perks of using POW I guess? It's the second most decentralized blockchain I know and the only problem with it is that most of the nodes running Ethereum are hosted in centralized services. It could be a huge problem if that service will shut down.

I have no experience with Solana and Harmony, but decentralized systems based on the blockchain such as Ethereum will never shut down, but rather the chain dies, and it may be for several reasons:

 - A fundamental bug in the codes.
 - Non-continuity of network use.
 - Absence of transaction validation elements such as minners in POW and activates validators in POS.
 - HardForks.

Other than that, the term "network shut down" is related to central networks.

I,m using the Ethereum network since 2017 but I have never seen any shutdown network error, there were some other errors that come in Ethereum but the shutdown network did not come since I'm using the Ethereum network. Solana is going to become a big network but they should resolve their shutdown so that in the future this should not happen and Harmony is the new network so maybe they can survive if this will not happen again.

None that I remember, but there where few problems in the past but there's no complete shutdown of the network itself. I think you can attribute it to Ethereum really that big that's why it never did go down. As compare to Solana or Harmony that is still very young and maybe just a few who support its network. Nevertheless it was a lessons learn for both of it so for sure they will not let it happened again in the future.

Ethereum never faced network problems like what solana and harmony did. Solana team was claiming if it was due to blockchain being overloaded and how is it possible when they have claimed solana to be the most scalable blockchain. I do believe if there was something wrong with this blockchain. The truly decentralized blockchain never gets shutdown. I don't know why there are people who still call solana and one as a promising blockchain once the reality said the different thing. SOL is getting shutdown for a few times and this is what they have called this as the best blockchain for this time.
Truly centralized blockchain. 1k nodes were totally BS.

Ethereum had a strong support, it won't happen what solana and harmony went through because they're entirely different with each other. Their network doesn't have similar platform same with erc20, nowadays the problems I am really struggling with erc20 was their gas fees, most projects they had was successful launched and in fact it was showing positive response during eth bullish trend last year together with btc's progressive rally.

ETH seems too big to fail. There must have lots of developers out there willing to work together to save ETH from falling. There was a tweet just a few days ago that transactions soon with just cost $0.05, now it's probably going to take a lot of editing like overhauling ETH just to reach that result but I wouldn't say shutting down.

The roadmaps changes every time and some of the things will be achieved but without having some problems and it takes time. ETH seems to be taking thier time seriously.  ;D

No if I am not wrong, ETH has/have lot of issues but its keep on running but only the users and the developers who is running projects on the decentralization blockchain of ethereum network is suffering. Vitalik had sich futuristic vision in the beginning of cryptocurrency era which is the main reason why it is still successful.  Now ETH 2.0 is the next big update which may kill all the other dApp blockchain or atleast what the ethereum Holders claim.

A consensus problem but a network shutdown? I don't know if that ever happened to Ethereum during its early days.

I know that you're trying to compare the successful one and the other aspiring ones, it's possible that these newer chains are also going to be successful soon as they're already popular these days.

But, it's incomparable to Ethereum.

Not really lol.

A lot of the software right now is being pushed out on a skeleton basis so that the foundation treasury can be enriched.

And it's not just $ONE, Solana has had extensive network shutdowns among other major coins as well. People are seriously overinvested in vaporware these days that come nowhere near their theoretical TPS capacity/stability.
