Many changes have been made, including a major upgrade to the fee system, with changes needing buy-in from many stakeholders. This is a network responsible for billions of dollars in value

Or maybe it's monopoly money, but critics always like to have it both ways, don't they. It's real when poor victims are losing it, but fake otherwise. It's all pretend, except when something goes wrong, then the teams running it are suddenly irresponsible.

Nothing ever goes wrong. A multi-million dollar hack is called a 'minor hiccup.' Missing a deadline by 5% of an entire lifetime is called 'a small delay' or 'a misunderstanding'. If they deliver within 10 generations, they will call it 'a resounding success, exceeding our wildest estimates.'
