This chapter examines developer and user engagement with the Nillion platform, alongside a critique of Avalanche's gaming and real-world application challenges. The discussion highlights Avalanche's modular architecture, validator dynamics, and potential for growth through governmental applications and cost-effective subnets.

Additionally, they cover the dominance of stablecoin provider business models, how to potentially gain exposure to these businesses, and whether or not PayPal can compete with established giants in the space. Finally, they present the bull and bear cases for Avalanche adoption.
