Most people compare blockchains by speed or fees. I think that misses the more important question.
People focus on moving assets faster. I'm more interested in who gets to define the rules before those assets move at all. The real issue isn't transaction throughput. It's authorization.
That's why @NewtonProtocol caught my attention. Instead of treating every valid signature as enough, it adds an authorization layer where decentralized operators evaluate a policy before execution. Think of it like how a card network checks whether a purchase should be approved: Intent → Policy Check → BLS Attestation → Execute or Revert.
Will this become a standard? Maybe, maybe not. Decentralized authorization brings its own tradeoffs.
But the bigger conversation isn't about faster blockchains. It's about who decides what should happen before anything does.
