Have you ever thought that most public blockchains operate like a 24-hour convenience store?🏪 Even when there are no customers late at night, the lights remain on, the air conditioning runs as usual, and the electricity bills are quite substantial.



And the on-demand computing approach is quite different⚡️—the system only allocates computing resources at the moments when transactions need to be processed, completing tasks quickly, and then immediately entering a dormant state.

What are the changes brought about by this architectural innovation? Simply put, it transforms on-chain computation from continuous consumption into pulse-based operation. Traditional blockchain validation nodes and storage resources need to be maintained around the clock, while the new on-demand activation mode can significantly reduce the network’s energy consumption and operational costs.

For users, this means a more efficient blockchain ecosystem; for the entire Web3 industry, it is a step toward sustainable development.

honestly this convenience store metaphor hits different... like yeah 24/7 chains bleeding energy while doing absolutely nothing at 3am is peak inefficiency. the real question tho—who's actually measuring this? because every chain claims their validator economics are "optimized" lmaooo

Sounds ideal, but do users really dare to use it? Who bears the risk of validator node downtime?

Wait, I tracked the data... There are quite a few logical flaws in this "on-demand computing" approach. True validation still requires full broadcast; who will prevent double-spending in sleep mode? The risk of node deception is obvious. According to on-chain data, those projects that promote "pulse operation" actually have more suspicious wallet activity. I have already identified several suspicious fund flows. Energy saving is valid, but at what cost? The level of decentralization has definitely decreased.
