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

Well said. “Onchain” feels like an insider circle jerk, and our job is to get outsiders to join the movement I’ve never heard an outsider say onchain, almost always it’s crypto or blockchain I think crypto is the best term we have but larger entities dislike it because politicians find it unpalatable

has been interesting to watch the subversive intellectual warfare over terminology extend into this sector current mental model i’m playing w is more trojan horsing than articulative dogmatism - since it seems like no matter the decision ppl on both sides don’t agree w it 1/2

something like ‘here’s the insider term we’re using so you (the normie) can get resistant and then eventually i’ll just bring you back to this is all the internet evolving and we already have agreed upon terms’ just w better tech lol side note this would have been a fun 20 min farhouse chat
