Many think this. Many are wrong.
I'll tell you why, then I'll show you with live examples.
TLDR
→ Network effects are a thing and, unlike SaaS, blockchains build up history/state that cannot be taken.
→ Iteration pace of financial systems (chains) is muuuuuch slower because of risks.
→ Most of this tech is novel and scaling is multi-factorial, which requires solving net-new challenges across verticals
-------------------------------------------
Now let me show you what this looks like in practice with the 2 leading blockchains: Base and Solana
1. Base.
Base has been wanting to scale massively for YEARS.
This is a quote from Jesse in December of 2024 proclaiming they would "scale base another 100x with reth" and alluding to it coming in 2025.
Base Throughput:
Dec. 19, 2024: 18 Mgas/s
Feb. 6, 2026: 30 Mgas/s (!)
It's not even a 2x. 2! When they strived for 100x. Literally 2% of the goal. The implementation of Reth hasn't been mentioned since that post so I have no idea the state.
"Yea, but Bread, rollups have been cucked by Ethereum DA capacity it's not their fault."
- You, probably.
You would also be wrong.
Rollups haven't been held back Ethereum for over half a year - it's all self imposed scale.
