I hope #OKX does not go down the wrong path. Every time I see comparisons made through TPS, I get worried. If this world could develop better just by TPS, $ETH might have gone to zero long ago. In 2021, many public chains used TPS leadership as an ETH killer, but most of these killers fell.
Whether a public chain can go far depends first on what applications it has, what problems it can solve, whether it can achieve better decentralization, and whether it can provide profitable opportunities for investors.
#SOL relied on MEME before and was called a casino chain, which is the description Solana most wants to get rid of from top to bottom.
Instead, I think X Layer could focus more on decentralized trading itself, building cross-chain redemption and liquidity structure, and concentrating on trading support might actually have a chance. Competing on TPS or low gas fees are not critically important.
When inscriptions were happening, wasn't gas on BTC even more expensive, which dampened investors' enthusiasm? On the contrary, many BTC layer-2 networks focused on being cheap, so how did that turn out?
