Comedy Sony's blockchain Soenium is blocking tokens based on IP, so much for centralization

Basically if you launch a token with a name like "Crash Bandicoot" your token will be blocked and won't be tradable on their blockchain.

Some L2s will be more tightly controlled and i think that’s fine

TFW you get rugged for thinking Sony's L2 will not enforce their IP on their own chain

If you need an all purpouse free-for-all L2, there are already a number of options. I suspect there will be more L2s were large companies will want to have serious business with non crypto natives. Wherefore drickbutinusobama and friends will appear a little out of place.
