The last decade of crypto followed a predictable timeline:
2017–2021 was the infrastructure era.
2022–2024 was the efficiency era.

Instead of chasing attention, it measures on-chain truth: verified users, retained activity, and transaction flow linked directly to burn pressure.
Every app competes on merit, not marketing.
This creates a growth model that funds itself — not through dilution, but through demand.
In a market tired of inflationary incentives, Linea positions itself as one of the first L2s engineered for economic longevity, not temporary excitement.
