Since January 2025, articles on the Mirror platform have not been placed on the blockchain but stored on servers, causing concerns and impacting MASK token value.
Mirror's On-Chain Article Absence
Since January 13, 2025, articles on Mirror have been stored exclusively on servers, not on the blockchain. Mask Network's founder, Suji Yan, disclosed this on Twitter, drawing significant attention and raising questions about the platform's infrastructure and reliability.
MASK Token Decline Sparks Concerns
Currently, Mask Network's token, MASK, is trading at $2.18 with a 24-hour change of -3.5%. This suggests ongoing issues related to platform trust and functionality. Vitalik Buterin highlighted the seriousness of the two-month blockchain gap and urged Mirror to address it promptly.
Unprecedented Situation and Community Pressure
Similar issues have occurred on other platforms, but a two-month period is unprecedented. Community and experts emphasize the need to strengthen on-chain processes and learn from past challenges to fix current issues.
Resolving these challenges requires concerted efforts and attention from all stakeholders, focusing on infrastructure enhancements and returning to a decentralized operational model.
