blockchains : religions Woke up with an analogy in my head - Bitcoin : Hinduism - old and continually practiced, decentralized growth, no central leader, lot of passive users, large user base Ethereum : Judaism - introduces a new framework (smart contracts = law/code), founded by a known figure with writings, thoughtful governance, intellectually respected Solana : Christianity - born from Ethereum, appeals to a wider market, potentially disliked by hardcore ethereum users, missionaries more available to masses compared to others People can be friends with others from any religion, similarly they can use products built on any blockchain. However, similar to how they practice their own religion, when building a new product, they start with the blockchain that matches their mental models best? Obv this isn't meant to say any blockchain/religion is better than the other, etc. etc. Weird waking up with this thought...

compared with bitcoin: ease of creating many tokens and contracts as focal points compared with solana: many L2s for scaling, many clients, etc.

re: L2s - https://warpcast.com/rish/0xe63d21f3 one could argue similar things for Bitcoin with layers like Lightning and use cases like Ordinals. Agree there's more tokens and layers in Ethereum but don't think that makes it polytheistic, there's one clear Ethereum founder
