As the availability of block space increases significantly, the expenses associated with on chain transactions diminish towards negligible levels. This change eliminates a major practical obstacle that has hindered the execution of intricate coordination processes directly on a fundamental layer. The Fear of Going On chain (FOGO), which primarily shifts activities off chain to circumvent congestion and costs, begins to lose its foundational rationale. When the anxiety over expenses or delays related to on chain transactions is alleviated, the previously cautious tendency to remain off chain becomes less justifiable. However, it is important to note that FOGO could endure as a cultural norm, even when the technical justifications fade away. Entities such as systems, developers, and users that have structured their workflows around off-chain principles often continue to rely on them due to established habits. Furthermore, the infrastructure designed to manage limited resources does not vanish instantly simply because those limitations are lifted. On a more profound level, the surplus of block space transforms FOGO from a practical strategy into a philosophical inquiry regarding design should you choose to go on chain simply because it is feasible, or only when it is absolutely necessary? It is likely that communities and protocols will diverge in their approaches; some may adopt an onchain maximization philosophy now that costs are low, while others may continue to favor off chain practices for reasons of modularity and efficiency rather than out of obligation. @Fogo Official
