The Real Bottleneck Is Not the Chain It’s the Users

July 2021

Everyone’s talking about scalability again. Rollups this rollups that. Faster finality and 100k TPS headlines.

But half the people I meet still don’t know what a gas fee is. They get confused when MetaMask shows “pending”. They click reject on signature popups cos they think it’s a virus.

Doesn’t matter how good your backend is if users can’t click a button without asking ten questions.

UX hasn’t caught up. Most dapps are made by devs for devs. Wallet UIs are still full of jargon. Nothing feels like a real app yet.

If we want real adoption we should be fixing frontends not launching another L2 every week.
