Apps can’t customize the chain to their needs. Custom chains can’t easily compose with others.
That’s the tradeoff—but Syndicate breaks it by giving appchain developers full customization/control and atomic composability.
Build without tradeoffs.

Vanguard's real innovation wasn’t index funds—it was mutual ownership.
By letting funds own their management company, there was no need to profit off investors—they were the owners. This model created a flywheel: lower costs, more trust, and scale that strengthened the system.

one of my fav quick pieces i've read of late. takes a look at how community mountain clubs could inspire how L2s structure their networks.
@keikreutler is a phenomenal (underfollowed!) writer, thank you and @syndicate for producing work like this.

Communities are the reason platforms thrive, brands scale, and markets grow.
But they’re left out of decision-making, disconnected from ownership, and forced to rely on systems that take more than they return.
It’s time for that to change.

Web2 platforms captured the value. Web3 communities are reclaiming it.
With @boysclub, we asked founders how Ethereum unlocks a world where the people creating value finally own it.
The shift has already started.

Think community-owned networks are new? Try mountain clubs in the 1880s.
They maintained remote trails and huts through volunteer labor, membership fees, and shared governance—an early model of community-owned infrastructure.

Communities create value. But that value flows up and out, never back in. They build, they innovate, they contribute, and yet, they’re left without ownership.
No matter how much value a community creates, they rarely have ownership over the systems they contribute to, control over how value circulates, or a voice when rules change overnight.
They're not just underserved—they're undervalued in the very systems they help build.

After WWII, Japan’s economy was shattered with the dissolution of the zaibatsu (family-controlled monopolies).
Keiretsus (clusters of independently managed firms) solved this by creating interconnected business networks with shared economies, resources, and governance.

Every day, communities show up: building, creating, supporting. But the systems that determine their futures are built to profit, not reinvest.
You do the work. But the system isn't yours.
It’s time to change that.

What’s the problem you can’t stop thinking about? @boysclub asked founders, and their answers aren’t about the tech.
They’re about better economic systems, aligning incentives, and people being rewarded for the value they create.
This is why they’re building in web3.

Their system was never built for us. The time has come to build our own.
In 1929, just 13% of rural homes had electricity. By 1944, it was 94%.
How? "Electric cooperatives" owned the infrastructure they built.
But today, blockchains with programmable sequencers can make any piece of infrastructure community owned and controlled.

Decentralization is often seen as the ultimate goal, but what if it's not always ideal for community-owned networks?
Syndicate Appchains enable networks to evolve across a spectrum of decentralization models by updating their sequencer’s permissions.

The strongest projects don't just build products. They build movements.

Most builders plug into existing infrastructure. But what if you could design your own?

Appchains are the new apps.
Appchains thrive on community ownership—make sure your infrastructure does too.
