The growth momentum of leading public chains in 2025 comes from solid technological iterations💪

The most critical upgrades include two aspects: block times have been reduced to below 1 second, and on-chain transaction costs are approaching zero. What does this mean? Developers finally have room to maneuver.

High-frequency applications are no longer a dream. On-chain real assets (RWA track), various stablecoins, perpetual contract trading, prediction markets, AI applications... These scenarios, once limited by performance bottlenecks, can now run smoothly on the chain. Coupled with low gas fees, a new round of ecological innovation has already begun.

Really? Gas fees approaching zero? So all those exorbitant fees paid before were for nothing. But on the other hand, the block time under one second is definitely impressive; we can finally run high-frequency applications. I'm optimistic about RWA on the chain, but I'm just worried it might be another hype; how many projects have truly been implemented? Smooth operation of contract trading sounds good, but how many times have we heard about ecosystem innovation... it all depends on actual trading volume. If this upgrade can truly be realized, I think there's a chance.

Less than 1 second + zero gas? Alright, I'll just see how long this hype can last. I've heard it too many times before. --- RWA, AI, perpetual contracts... sound pretty impressive, but I wonder how many of them can actually be implemented successfully. --- Approaching zero gas fees is indeed something worth noting. Should I try to connect with a project? --- No matter how loud the hype, it all depends on on-chain activity. That's the current buzzword. --- Developers now have room to showcase their skills. And then? Users are still the same small number. --- Is the zero-gas era here? I feel like I'm still dreaming. --- Who will be the real winners of this round of ecosystem innovation? It all depends on where the funds flow. --- Reducing block time to under 1 second is feasible, but how is stability ensured? --- With perpetual contracts now operational, the next step is to watch the explosion of the derivatives ecosystem. --- Another year, another "most critical upgrade." Hope this time it's not just another wave of slogans.

This time it's really different. Gas fees approaching zero is the real necessity. --- The time for RWA to take off has arrived. Previously, it was stuck due to transaction fees. --- Less than 1 second? Awesome, finally able to run high-frequency applications. --- Wait, can stablecoins and perpetual contracts really operate smoothly? It depends on the actual data. --- Developers are about to take off. The ecosystem definitely has potential this time. --- Both technological iteration and ecological innovation—talk is cheap. We need to see if blockbuster applications can emerge later. --- Lower gas fees indeed change the game, but it still depends on who seizes the opportunity first. --- Can prediction markets and AI applications really get off the ground? It still feels a bit too idealistic. --- Low cost and high speed—this combination is quite deadly.

Less than a second? The dream of sub-second latency is finally not just a dream anymore. RWA is really taking off this time. Gas fees are almost gone, and developers are smiling brighter than I am. Again and again, they talk about smooth operation. Let’s wait until we actually use it before praising. Can we stop lagging on perpetual contracts... Looking forward to seeing real results. Predicting market hype—new track or just the same old tricks? A 1-second transaction sounds a bit unbelievable. How is the benchmark performing? Stablecoin ecosystem is about to take off. This time, it feels more reliable. Is zero-cost speculation truly zero? Details make all the difference. On-chain AI applications—can they be more impressive than they are now? Haha. After all this hype about the RWA track, there’s finally some real substance.

Another set of this rhetoric, I believe in less than 1 second, gas fees approaching zero... Haha --- How long have we been hearing about RWA, and when will it truly land? --- Developers have room to grow, but users are still that group of gamblers --- Wait, which chain is this talking about? Feels like every one is bragging --- Perpetual contracts run smoothly, and my liquidation orders are even smoother --- Low gas fees can't save the ecosystem; what's crucial is real applications --- All this hype about performance, but where are the killer apps? --- Predictive markets with a bunch of fake projects, what innovation is that? --- Impressive technical indicators, but the ecosystem is cold; this is the current awkward situation

Oh my God, block time under 1 second? Now that's real productivity release. The days of gas fees that eat into profits are finally over. Is RWA really about to take off? It feels like I've been hearing about it for over a year, but I haven't seen much tangible progress. Approaching zero gas fees is incredible. Developers should be able to build with peace of mind, no longer worried about costs. It's called ecological innovation, but I feel like this is just the beginning of another hype cycle... Will perpetual contract trading run smoothly? Then the exchanges should be crying, haha. On-chain AI applications—are these real needs or just riding the hot trend again? A bit confusing. Low gas fees + high frequency—this combination is truly tempting, but when can we actually experience it?

It's been a while, but things are finally getting serious. However, whether a transaction can be confirmed in 1 second depends on if someone comes to dump later. I'm most interested in the gas fee approaching zero—those RWA folks are about to take off. Brothers, can we keep up with the ecosystem dividends this time, or will we get cut again?
