/biz/ - Business & Finance

I remember in 2018 when all ethereum chain was used for was crypto kitties.

There were no dapps, just speculation on what could the future be. Big banks were shilling the "blockchain, not bitcoin" narrative and pumped millions into funding centralized alternatives, all the top enterprises rushed to join the EEA and launched proof of concepts across all industries, all the big tech and cloud companies tried to spin off their own blockchain for enterprise services, all the big law firms focusing on legal tech only had 2 words on their minds: "smart contracts".

I remember the first time I learned of this term, and how profoundly it clicked for me. The simple elegance yet deep implications of it; It was easy to "get" but the more you dug, the more you realized what a genuine paradigm shit it could be. Going back to 90's Szabo papers, realizing there was so much more to crypto than "currency". The crowd seemed much smarter back then, people actually theorized concepts on much more fundamental levels. People discussed concepts like triple entry accounting and back office automation back then.

The first wave of defi summer came, and it became somewhat of a reality. Yield farming, over collateralized loans, liquidity pools. Still a very tiny reality but it showed so much promise, "the future of finance!" and it was entirely "our own". It wasn't the banks or the enterprises that kickstarted it, it was grassroots, open source devs and the community adopters. "Defi" became the trend term that helped crypto heal in the bear market. Scaling and gas fees were still issues, but we had functional products and TVL quickly rose to numbers you couldn't ignore. This turned into market recovery and prepped the bull market.

Bull market attracted greedy VCs and stupid retail money. Focus shifted from replicating valuable financial instruments to inane bullshit. The "NFT" craze took over. Always in search of a new narrative.

This is like if "email" became a trend before "internet".

>whitepaper tl;dr
Some of you did manage to burn through all... sixteen pages of it (fuck me, right?), and a few of *you* have enough of a grasp to answer this question:

I know it'll run on any blockchain, but can it work on other kinds of solutions (like Hash Graph)?

Serious question, because blockchain technology's length-of-tooth is becoming painfully apparent with slow transactions et al. If this can work on other technologies such as hashgraph, well, then, there's really no reason not to buy it (especially at tomorrow morning's prices) (tomorrow night's prices may be another story).

>please list other blockchain alternatives in this thread

This right here lets you know that this project has *traction* -- someone actually *made* this with great care, literally linking blockchain to the real world -- artifacts: memes made materially manifest; 2D memagery to 3D artifice... this project's ascending to a whole nother dimension famalam, noam sane....

STOP drawing attention to this and hold quietly like most others. Your patience will be rewarded.

Here is another shot.
