Now try playing out a detailed scenario of what happens when someone builds an "on-chain Twitter clone", and what different players do in that scenario, and what competitive equilibrium emerges. That's what I've attempted to do here [0].

That's the same blog post you promoted above and I responded to it here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31430186

TBH, it looks like you have a huge axe to grind but don't understand the subject very well. That's why I suggested that you try actually building some things using web3 (which is an eth library)!

It will give you a better mental model of how it works. That will definitely improve your ability to write about web3. Imagining hypothetical apps falls far short of just building a prototype.

I know you technically "responded", but you're not understanding what I'm asking in my last comment. Please re-read my comment and understand what's required of you to actually think deeply about this topic. The inability of folks like you to do this is at the heart of this whole situation.

Thinking through a topic has a type signature. The required type is "example scenario of your point". You are making points that are vacuous, points that have no example scenarios. It's a problem that can be caught in type checking.
