For technology, that assumption is more likely than not, in a general sense.

Value of an asset doesn't really count as technology though. The technology of UST/Luna still "works" even though the value crashed.

UST was intended to be a dollar-pegged stablecoin. The failure of its dollar peg was certainly a failure of technology, because a "dollar-pegged" coin that is not actually pegged to the dollar is not a "working" system.
