power outages at these facilities already happened, but it's a smaller problem in grand scheme of things. facility of this type promises to keep human meatsicle at 77K effectively forever (because magic tech to revive dead is not coming), for a single payment. this means they'll simply run out of power/liquid nitrogen money at some point and will have to shut down, and allow everything to thaw

At the very least the customers won't notice.

So the gamble is that tech is invented before money runs out?
But also didn’t one routine inspection discover liquefied human remains?

it's not a gamble, it's more of a shared belief propagated by people who took scifi way too seriously

From time to time they have to open these things and basically find melted human jelly where a body was once placed.

But the point is that people will continue to die and believe in that kind of thing. A bit like religion...
Obviously space could become an issue especially if some kind of revival never happens... But at the price they set I think it's prohibitive enough.
There will never be a shortage of fools for this kind of services.

I would imagine they use the same financial methods as funeral homes taking payment decades before you die.
Money goes into an investment fund that keeps growing.

And they'll have to fight it out to be the one consciousness getting shoved into a probe and sent into space after they're revived by a theocratic fascist state in 500 years

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4074928/ - I really liked this movie about it. Without spoilers, the idea basically is that to keep getting funding the company has to prove that the technology works. They have to start waking people up and someone has to be first. Decades after you've been frozen all your family is long dead so you're basically company's property, they can do whatever they want...

The idea is you have investments running that return enough to keep the place running indefinitely.
