To say that I’m really excited for the future of @kadena_io would be an understatement. We are determined to empower every human across the internet, from the blockchain to your device!

Here’s a small snippet of how we are going to do it: 🧵 We are taking #Pact to Web2.

Imagine combining the best of both worlds: the user experience of Web2 and the security of Web3. It's a powerful combination that can redefine how we interact with digital platforms and applications.

Scalability is the proving ground where clever designs go to die. One thing we talk about at @kadena_io is the "earnings report problem" to illustrate how so many seemingly attractive approaches fall over in real world use, coming from experience scaling trading exchanges. \1 Next time somebody's touting a system design that magically handles any load, the earnings report problem will usually reveal the weaknesses therein. Remember that scalability isn't raw speed but the ability to throw more resources at a problem without falling over. \2

What is Decentralized Infrastructure?

It's how crypto realizes its full potential.
It's how builders don't have to start from scratch when innovating.
It's how code stays on the blockchain, not in unsafe offchain apps.
It's only possible with Pact and @kadena_io . \1 Today on EVM platforms, the simplest contract requires reams of copypasted code. This is bad for devs but worse for users and auditors: every contract must be audited line-for-line, every time. It's confusing, bloated, slow and expensive, but most importantly, unsafe. \2

Smart contracts are key to success. It sounds obvious, but Ethereum and Kadena are two of a surprisingly small number of platforms that support real smart contracts. Many other platforms have gone a different way. Here's why they're wrong. \1 At a low level, Pact follows the EVM's (and Bitcoin's) lead: provide a limited interpreter to execute logic that populates the blockchain ledger. In Bitcoin, this is UTXOs, whereas in Kadena and Ethereum, it's a "state DB". \2
