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... 15 replies
