## Quote — verbatim

> It's been online for about four years, has not gone down a single time, like not a single time. Amazon goes down 200 times a year, right?... because Akash is open source, because you have so many eyeballs watching this code base 24/7, the chances of bad code getting in thereby causing instability is very, very low.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

"Power of the crowd" differentiator, citing CrowdStrike's bad-code outage as the centralized counterexample and the South Korean security firm that caught an Akash bug pre-exploit (00:20:31).
