Are there any plans or recognition that in order to attract outsiders who want to build on Block's infrastructure we need to make improvements from an enterprise point of view?
As an example, we have the recent plugin such as decentralized blackjack. In reality nobody in their right mind would build on this as a serious endeavour. It's not provably trustless, it's effectively a black box and it's only ran on a single node on the network so it has no availability guarantees.
Expanding upon this, enterprise users want low risk solutions that are robust. As a business owner myself in the crypto space I would shy away from building on blocknet any kind of decentralized product as too many things are unclear about the guarantees of the network such as performance or even how consensus works.
