The modular blockchain movement is picking up major steam. Countless new entrants are presenting innovative solutions designed to help us reach a maximum state of decentralization, security, and scalability. The tech is powerful, original, and, most importantly, compatible. Soon enough, developers will have the power to build complex, scalable dApps uncompromised by the limits of conventional blockchain infrastructure. As we continue building bridges between layers through technical integrations, it is crucial to also foster off-chain collaboration to sustain this growth. As architects of the modular movement, we must ask ourselves: How can we optimize our systems to not only facilitate our individual advancement but our collective progress as well? Facilitating a culture of ongoing, constructive discourse is paramount if we are to succeed. Decentralized governance will need to evolve within the modular paradigm to support this collaborative and sustainable growth. Decentralized governance in a modular paradigm The rise of blockchain modularity begs a new set of questions and considerations around what constitutes optimal blockchain governance. While similar on- and off-chain mechanisms as monolithic blockchains can be used at the protocol level, results can create a ripple effect through a modular ecosystem. In this new paradigm, decentralized governance has the potential to look radically different and it will certainly be more complex. For the modular thesis to succeed, a mechanism that helps to maintain a level of congruence between different layers of the stack must be established. We are dealing with nascent technologies that will undergo plenty of iterations as systems are refined and software becomes more sophisticated. As the technology progresses, more consideration must be paid to how this constellation of different players come together to build…
