Back to collectionA-Zhen Sketches a Layer Above Layer Two
Background: The studio is weighing next year’s game and chain-side plans, and its chain specification is still exploratory. Today: A-Zhen writes down the conjecture “build another layer above layer two” in the specification. Impact and next: The specification now has a possible direction, but this is neither a product decision nor a deployed network.
A creative chronicle combining project history with imagined scenes. Story events are not verification of network activity.
Background: The studio is weighing next year’s game and chain-side plans, and its chain specification is still exploratory. On a rainy Sunday, A-Zhen, an early engineer, stays with the document and considers what infrastructure the game may need.
Today: A-Zhen writes down the conjecture “build another layer above layer two” in the specification. She does not treat it as a settled design. Instead, she tries comparing constraints in the game experience with existing scaling ideas and leaves questions beside the note for discussion.
Impact and next: The specification now has a possible direction, but this is neither a product decision nor a deployed network. A-Zhen plans to explain at the next discussion what problem the proposed layer would address and what it might cost; the team has yet to decide whether to study it further.
