You guys do know the network is up and purring along nicely right? It has been since launch. Also, you do know a whole bunch of people made a shit ton of money yesterday selling on Polo and other exchanges right? I mean some may have made less than others, but I think from looking at it, everyone with half a brain made more than the ICO price. Also, anyone who took five seconds to listen here or get on chat like we mentioned multiple times got help and got access to their funds.
The only problem at launch was that the main login sites got hammered with requests and got taken down. They had something like 50,000+ concurrent session requests. It probably could have been avoided, but they definitely aren't the first company to have such problems at launch, billion dollar companies have the same problem. When Batman Vs. Superman tickets went on sale Fandango was down for like 6 hours.
The problem wasn't just that the site was down. It was (and still is) that when the site(s) are up, they don't work/function properly.
Don't say "oh, well you should have done it the other way..."
If this way was an option, then the user should not be at fault for attempting to get their funds this way. Lisk team fucked up, big time
