Earlier today, the entire online banking platform of popular institution HSBC became inaccessible, leaving millions of customers without access to their finances in an online manner. While technical issues can happen at any time, it is the second time in as many days this type of event has transpired. The Bitcoin network, powered by blockchain technology, has never gone down in its near seven years of existence.
