Recently, there is a new trend worth paying attention to—the Fabric Foundation has been officially established.

This is an independent non-profit organization, similar in purpose to open-source standards like Linux and Ethereum. Its core role is to build governance, economic, and coordination infrastructure for protocols, ensuring the long-term healthy development and neutrality of the protocols, while also promoting continuous ecosystem expansion.

In simple terms, it manages and operates blockchain protocols in a manner similar to open-source software.

Oh no, another foundation has been established. Can it match the scale of Ethereum this time? Fabric is quite interesting; non-profit governance is indeed more reliable than team dictatorship. Can open source save blockchain? I'm skeptical either way. Is this just trying to follow the Linux model? Can it actually succeed? Wait, where's the moat? Why should it survive beyond five years? Another bunch of promises. Let's see how many of them can be fulfilled.

Wow, Fabric Foundation's move is quite interesting. Finally, someone has brought the open-source approach onto the chain. If the ecosystem can truly achieve decentralized governance, that would be the way to go, unlike some projects that claim decentralization but end up being a one-man show. This situation is similar to back in the Linux days. Let's see if it can really break through.

Another foundation has been established. Can it truly remain neutral this time... I always felt this kind of structure should have existed a long time ago.

Oh my God, another foundation is coming. Will this one be different? I've seen this routine with Fabric many times. No matter how nicely it's presented, it's just centralized management in disguise. Open-source standards sound good, but I don't know how they will actually operate in practice. Wait, can it really be as neutral as Linux? I'm skeptical. They're building infrastructure again, it just feels like they're reinventing the wheel.

Hmm, another Linux-like system. It looks like a good approach.

Moving the open-source governance logic onto the chain sounds good, but can it truly break free from capital constraints?
