Ethereum

I like baking /goodbread and building apps on web3 protocols. DevRel @ ENS Labs. gregskril.com

Edge servers are highly distributed but they route to 3 core geo distributed locations. 

Nodes themselves vary beyond that depending on the chain support. We support 2.5k evm chains so there’s a lot of variety.

Can read a little more about it here: https://blog.thirdweb.com/changelog/major-infrastructure-overhaul-scaling-for-the-future/

Today I learned there are over 2500 EVM chains

You can see them all here: https://thirdweb.com/chainlist

There’s about 1050 mainnet chains and probably 750 or so that have some sort of activity. There’s some that seem dead and others that have permissioned access.

Wild to see the longtail. It feels like 10 major ones and that’s already overwhelming 

there likely is no incentive to interop vs having their own ecosystem they own + earn gas from

l2 scaling failed not because these chains couldn't interop, but because they didn't want to interop

there's a timeline where alt-L1s never became a trade

crazy huh and most of them has literally no reason to exist lol
