2 years from now, for most consumer experiences that use crypto, the underlying chain will be invisible. Exception will be if the target consumers own the underlying asset of the chain and are thus incentivized to hype an app because of a chain. For regular people, they will just care if the app is fun / interesting.

wrong. the chain will never be abstracted away. because they compete for users.

average people use iphones and google pixels, not smartphones. they buy the hardware that hosts the apps and make distinct decisions. hyperliquid is a chain before it’s an app.

Hyperliquid is quite literally an app before a chain. The HyperEVM launched after the DEX. Nobody would build on HyperEVM if the DEX had not got so many users first

If the apps were amazing enough, chain wouldn’t matter.

Osmosis > Uniswap under any UI/UX metric. but their chain sucks. Terra app UIs were kinda shit, yet people used them. is Believe a better app than Zora or clanker? absolutely not, but Solana has a better ecosystem today.
