It is 2022 and even after 13 years since the inception of Bitcoin, there is still no question the crypto markets remain the Wild Wild West frontier for financial innovation and change. The race to build a safe, secure, and resilient “blockchain railroad” is still underway and while the dominant platforms such as Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, and Polkadot are showing promise, the future is still uncertain as to who will become the “King” of smart contract protocols. Competition drives destruction and innovation for who will ultimately sit on the blockchain “Iron throne”, and there is a clear desire for developers to reveal who can be the most scalable, secure, decentralized, and resilient chain in the crypto space.
