#fogo $FOGO
I’ll be honest: every time someone announces a “new high-performance L1,” I roll my eyes a little.

Not because I hate innovation. I actually love watching new chains experiment. But we’ve heard the same promise so many times. Faster. Cheaper. More scalable. Then, a few months later, the hype cools down, liquidity dries up, and everyone quietly moves back to where the activity already is.

That’s why, when I first heard about Fogo, I didn’t get excited. I got curious.

The Strategy: Pragmatism Over Ego

Fogo isn’t trying to reinvent everything from scratch. It’s built as an L1 blockchain that uses the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) . And that detail matters more than people realize.
