Web3 kept adding layers. I watched Fogo do the opposite.
When I looked at the Web3 ecosystem I saw that everyone was excited about making things more complicated. They were adding layers, like L2s, bridges and DA layers.
Trying to connect everything across different chains. I could not. Wonder, what does all of this mean for me as a trader? What is the real cost of using all these Web3 systems?
It took me about a week of using these Web3 systems to figure out the answer. I realized that I was paying a kind of tax. The Web3 ecosystem was so complicated that it was taking up a lot of my time and attention.
I had to deal with gas prices uncertainty about when my transactions would go through and a lot of things that were distracting me from what I wanted to do. The more Web3 protocols I used the complicated it got. I got used to it because everyone around me was dealing with the Web3 issues.
Then I looked at Fogos architecture. It was like a breath of air. They had combined all these parts, like SVM, Firedancer and order books into one Fogo system. This was not a decision but a way of thinking that I could finally understand. The idea is that all the complicated Web3 stuff should be hidden behind the scenes so that people like me do not have to deal with it.
When I used Fogo Sessions I saw what this meant in practice. Once I did not have to worry about signing in and all that I could just focus on my trading strategy. It was like I was not even using a blockchain anymore. This changed the way I trade using Web3.
I think the next big wave of investment will not go to the people who are building bridges between Web3 chains. It will go to the people who are building Fogo systems that're so simple and easy to use that you forget they are even there.
I think Fogo is building a Fogo system, like that. I am going to keep an eye on Fogo.
