  • > Consensus is only really nessisary for solving problems like payments or namespacing (e.g. namecoin)

    That is the only credible use-case(s) that the cryptocurrency folks should be looking at. I can see a few projects surviving like Stellar [0], Ripple (XRP) [1], Algorand [2] and Nano [3], ENS [4], Handshake [5] and Skiff [6].

    Unlike the other project that are rife of scams that you see reported daily from web3isgoinggreat, there are a few that are not silly meme coins / tokens, or vaporware but stuck to their goals / whitepaper(s) and seem to be still useful and have a use-case.

    This is what these skeptics won't tell you and just ignore and filter it out.

    ℹ️ Uniswap v1+v2 analytics

  • Coinbase is a centralized exchange. Of course it runs in a SQL db or whatever. They only need to touch the chain when settling inflows/outflows.

    But something like Uniswap: https://app.uniswap.org/#/swap is fully on-chain. Every trade happens on chain, because the application is an immutable smart contract liquidity protocol, called an AMM, or automated market maker.

    It does as much, if not more, volume than Coinbase ($1.98B in last 24H): https://info.uniswap.org/#/
