Risks tied to using a single exchange

When Binance futures went down earlier today, it reminded the risk of relying solely on a single exchange. Though I didn’t have a position opened on it at that period because i already placed a trade on Bitget at the time but i know those who were stuck. This just shows why you should have options open as a form of risk management because this can happen to any exchange at any time.  

I still stand on ‘no exchange is perfect’ but having a backup to spread your activities on would definitely save some stress when the unexpected happens which is why OKX is my third one. Just like having a diversified portfolio and having multiple investments basket, having different exchanges is a good decision in my opinion. Do you also use multiple exchanges or you stick to one ?
