Commonware: Building the Anti-Framework | Patrick O’Grady

Bullish:

• $EXOSTACK - Commonware's ExoStack approach allows developers more flexibility in building and connecting blockchain applications, potentially improving user experience and adoption.

  • “The idea is that you build something that's great that users would wanna use, and then you can connect it however you see fit and instantiate it with some sort of security model however you see fit.”

• $INFRA - The future of blockchain technology will shift focus from technical details to user experience and application utility, similar to how consumers use Netflix without concern for its infrastructure.

  • “We don't talk about, like, Netflix's CDN architecture. We just don't. We just use Netflix because it's great. The same sort of thing will happen with crypto, and we need to move past, like, the TPS era and, like, all this fighting about infrastructure things.”

Bearish:

• $ECOSYS - Current ecosystem standardization approaches in blockchain development may be limiting rather than facilitating user-friendly interactions, suggesting a need for more flexible development options.

  • “We maintain standards and keep things the way they are because it makes it easier for everyone to integrate. That's the guiding principle with a lot of the way different ecosystems and ways to build are based. The funny thing is, though, is if you ask people, like, do you feel like it's easy to interact with the blockchain? I don't think you're gonna get 'yeah, it's all standard, it makes it so easy to interact.'”
