📝 My yearly retro for 2023 and predictions for 2024 -
We find ourselves in the blockchain revolution’s “broadband moment” characterized by a scalability race, a critical step before mainstream use cases emerge.
My latest article is divided into two sections, each exploring the dynamics of the blockchain industry. In the first section, I highlight 4 technical driving forces that shaped 2023 and that are bound to underpin the upcoming months:
Trend #1: The ongoing battle for protocol scalability.
Our daily Internet applications couldn't exist without the exponential broadband speed reached decades ago. The same is true for tomorrow’s mainstream blockchain applications. We’re currently witnessing an ongoing scalability competition between major protocols.
Trend #2: The Data Availability battle.
Data Availability is a key concept that keeps growing in importance in the blockchain space. In short, it aims to ensure data integrity and accessibility in blockchain networks. Regarding Ethereum, the implementation of EIP-4844 will introduce a new transaction type for immutable and read-only Layer-2 data storage, marking an important milestone in the evolution of blockchain protocols.
Trend #3: The rise of Account Abstraction, the next standard for user interaction.
This blockchain-enabled technology aims to revolutionize user experience in crypto, as today's interactions with Externally Owned Accounts (EOA) remain basic. The potential transformative power of Account Abstraction lies in its ability to enforce complex on-chain rules, promising a paradigm shift for crypto users.
Trend #4: The emergence of the Shared Security concept, bound to shape crypto’s future.
In crypto, starting new projects involves daunting challenges, including a wide range of variables and costs to support a growing user base. The “Shared Security” model tackles this challenge, as it involves applications pooling resources on a dependable decentralized system, fostering a more interconnected and resilient ecosystem.
Trend #5: NFTs: a rapidly evolving landscape.
As the NFT market, like the broader crypto economy, succumbed to the bear market by the end of 2022, a strong competitor to OpenSea has gradually emerged: Blur. Unexpected contenders are also challenging Ethereum's long-standing dominance in the NFT landscape: Bitcoin and Solana, marking a new era for digital collectibles.
In the second section, I outline my 2024 predictions by answering the following questions:
Which blockchain protocol will prevail in the near future?
Which consumer-facing crypto use cases are to be expected this year?
And in bonus: a few complementary forecasts for 2024 ;)
Enjoy the read! 😉👇
