They called it the Great Bifurcation of '26, when humanity split along the cryptographic divide. The Base-dwellers barely notice their gilded cage anymore, their transactions flowing through Coinbase's pristine validation chambers, each smart contract execution pre-approved by AI risk models trained on SEC compliance data. Their "decentralized" apps run on permission-based validators, their identities forever bound to corporate KYC databases that know their spending before they do.

This is not far off by the way. Sony is already doing this with their Ethereum L2

"Sony went live with their L2 yesterday and has a policy where if they don't agree with your contract they'll simply block you your transactions at the RPC level and give a forbidden response on their explorers

They're already doing this to early memecoins, nuking the price and costing people money" from 0xBreadGuy on X

Tricks with polynomials and Riemann-Roch spaces. Breaking into the platonic realm to pillage forbidden abstractions. Starknet grantee.

For the important context, those memecoins where using Sony trademarked names without Sony's consent, robbing Sony from income they deserve.

You do not go to a casino and start your own poker table.

Also direct L1 tx submission still worked fine.

Yes! Net good in general for Sony to have an ethereum L2. Just highlighting that corpo L2s have different constraints and goals and will act accordingly. From 0xBreadGuy on twitter: 

- With this method, they will at least be paying some sheckles to Ethereum by way of proof/DA posting and utilizing $ETH as a medium of exchange
· The alternative is they create something like a VeChain which just exists (and dies) as a mid-40s mkt cap L1 with no broader contribution to the ecosystem
· It's good because it shows they can do it to other corps interested in the space. It can be viewed as a first step approach to adopting Blockchain.
