#机构采用 Recently, I saw a research report from Coinbase mentioning the rise of dedicated blockchain networks. I was a bit confused but also found it quite interesting. 🤔

To put it simply, it’s like large institutions don’t want to put their operations on other people’s platforms for fear of losing control, so they start building their own dedicated chains. For example, Circle’s Arc platform is specifically designed for institutional USDC applications, while Stripe and Paradigm’s Tempo network aim to create institutional-grade payment solutions… These all sound very high-end.

But what impressed me the most is that this isn’t a fragmented outcome, but rather these dedicated chains are connected through cross-chain technology. It’s a bit like city planning—each institution has its own "community," but ultimately they’re linked together by "highways." This approach ensures customization needs are met while also enabling liquidity and asset circulation.

What I’m curious about now is, what impact might this trend have on retail investors like us? Will the underlying infrastructure for trading become more complex in the future? Or does it actually won’t make much difference to our daily experience? Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts!
