The "onchain" narrative is a bit weird to me because it's like flexing about being "onAWS" or "oncloud"

A chain is only one part of your tech stack. In fact, having to compose everything onchain is an anti-pattern that emerged because light client support sucks

Offchain is more expressive, safe, and cost efficient

Disagree: “onchain” is the whole premise of the thing. It’s closer to “online” in that the chain is what enables self custody, permissionlessness, etc. Similar to just being able to go to a website on your own vs. subscribe to a specific TV channel or order a CD ROM program.

I hear you - the chain is seminal

But putting my pedantic hat on — PKI is offchain, the chain only tracks balances (which I agree it’s great for)

I’m advocating for moving more app logic off chain and using the chain for proof settlement

Potential liveness issues, but that’s also the case with current L2/3s
