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...

Has to be one of the newer chains that gets enough adoption

For the analogy to hold, Base can’t totally break from Judaism https://warpcast.com/rish/0xe63d21f3

So maybe one of the newer chains like Monad or MegaETH

That said, this is a made up analogy and you can make up whatever you want lol

It must be Base then 😅

Technically, according to Islam all previous mono religions are previous iterations
