This was correct. Blinks didn't take off because Twitter mobile app — where 90% of usage is — doesn't natively support Blinks (and actively nerfs links). Remember how worked up everyone in Ethereum got about the sexy launch video? Ignore the noise.

“Blinks didn't take off” – it's how most consumer products in crypto seem to go. But you're missing the bigger picture here. It's become the standard on Solana for aggregating transaction signing into one interface. That’s super powerful and not something you see happening anywhere else on internet. Browser extensions were just a hack to sart with. The real deal is the Actions spec. Pretty soon, you’re going to see every dApp on Solana rendering transactions with a UI inside the app itself, instead of sending users outside the platform to sign. It's becoming the standard for how UIs handle transactions. Just look at how Drip, Bags, and even @dingg (coming soon on Farcaster) use Actions to create awesome user experiences. Over 400 unique Blinks were created in just two months and i think this is an imprressive achievement. I think they are working really well.

Everywhere - E-commerce - Games - NFT mints - Airdrops - Subscriptions - Onboarding - Quests - Staking - Betting and many more on browser even tho blinks are far from PMF but they are not dead, and i have launched blinks with 100k+ wallet interactions, i think they are in no way competitor to frames - the pie is too small to fight for rn
