There’s a useful intermediate between “open protocol” and “closed API”. That intermediate is “open source, open state, open execution, private keys”. That’s a smart contract where you *do* retain the admin keys, but all state and execution are on-chain. Different than typical API with opaque server.

A power up to this api pattern is when services realize it’s better to assume the client will bring the data vs storing it for them
