INSIGHT

Multichain Future With Purpose-Driven Networks

  • The future is multi-chain with a handful of permissionless public networks capturing most activity.
  • Private and permissioned networks will persist because participant needs determine the appropriate network model.
ADVICE

Pick Networks By Counterparty And Regulation

  • Choose network type based on who you need to transact with and regulatory constraints.
  • Use private permissioned networks for regulated counter-parties and permissionless networks for global open access.
INSIGHT

Appchains And L2s Anchor To Major Base Layers

  • Many networks will be layer 2, layer 3, or app chains secured by a handful of base layer chains.
  • Securing on major public networks lets chains benefit from their security without bootstrapping full base-layer overheads.
