The barbell approach in blockchain scaling is working quietly but effectively. Picture this: 15 to 18 million daily transactions flowing through the retail channels, while institutional-grade RWAs like BlackRock's BUIDL build infrastructure on-chain simultaneously. Not many networks pull off this dual momentum. You're looking at something that bridges the gap between mainstream adoption and institutional capital—retail velocity meets enterprise-grade assets. Most chains pick one lane and stick with it. The ones doing both at scale? That's the real differentiator in this cycle.
