Farcaster is a fine demonstration in why you don't need strict global consensus and public blockchains for most things, but at the same time, they can prove valuable for 1 or 2 things I hope to see more hybrid applications that are significantly better by minimizing blockchain usage only to strict global consensus

Do you know any non-financial app that would make sense to build on a validium and not on CRDTs? (i.e. do you think validium makes sense for a non-financial app?)

indeed, most applications on the internet are abundance-centric rather than scarcity-centric! https://multicoin.capital/2022/02/16/the-composable-web3-data-network/

Even worse, applications can be explicitly *harmed* by trying to shoehorn everything into strict global consensus E.g. in DeFi, using a blockchain cedes privacy + ordering, resulting in MEV Excited for hybrid DEXes (e.g. Renegade - p2p mpc trading network that merely settles to blockchains in zero knowledge)
