The X Spaces platform crashed due to server capacity issues caused by high demand from over 205,000 users.

Well, there's over 205,000 people that are in the space right now. I'm actually currently in the space because I was one of the first people to join it, so I was able to get in. But it seems like they're having server capacity issues because so many people are trying to join the space at the same time. People like the Hodge twins and others are in the replies on both Elon Musk's account and Donald Trump's account, saying that they're having a hard time getting in.

The X Spaces team consists of only a small number of engineers, making it difficult to handle massive capacity.

Yeah, absolutely. And I know from conversations that I've had with Dick Sordor, because he and Mario, of course, are very intimately involved with the Spaces team at X. That as of a few months ago, the spaces team was only like half a dozen to a dozen people total as far as engineers are concerned. So we're talking about a really kind of bootstrap, lean team dealing with this massive capacity.

The X Spaces outage was caused by a massive DDoS attack rather than infrastructure failure.

Hey, we got an update from Elon Musk. Elon Musk says there appears to be a massive DDoS attack happening. Of course. I predicted that. Of course. This is not a failure of excellence. This is actually a cyber attack happening. Probably backed by people supported by the EU and others who have come out and issued threatening letters today.
