The real breakthrough isn't just new blockchains—it's making them disappear from the user experience.

Generalized Abstraction is the key. It strips away the friction that keeps mainstream users out: no more agonizing over fluctuating gas fees, no more juggling multiple chains, no more decoding cryptic hex addresses.

Users simply open the app and go. The complexity hides in the background where it belongs—like electricity powering your phone without you thinking about the grid. You don't see the infrastructure; you just experience the magic.

That's when blockchain goes mainstream. Not through marketing hype, but through technology that gets out of the way.
