What does state-of-the-art blockchain engineering look like in 2026?

In Episode 2 of TheCoordinate podcast, I sat down with Patrick O’Grady & Brendan Chou (Commonware) to unpack their Anti-Framework philosophy: build chains by composing optimized primitives—not inheriting a monolithic stack.

We go deep on:

  • how Commonware is designed in practice (and how to use it)
  • who it’s for vs Cosmos-style frameworks
  • how their newest consensus protocol Minimit works (arguably the hottest kid in the consensus neighborhood)
  • what’s coming with ExoWare

This is Episode 2 of TheCoordinate. Hope you enjoy it.
