I keep seeing people call it “another L1.”
Like the exchange is something that might show up later.
But here, the exchange is already wired into consensus. Price feeds aren’t visiting. Liquidity isn’t renting space. The validators are selected with execution in mind. That’s not modular. That’s deliberate.
40ms blocks don’t just carry transactions. They carry matching. Settlement. State extension in the same breath. By 1.3s it’s not pending. It’s done.
Most chains host markets.
This one behaves like a market that happens to expose blocks.
