Smart Contracts Forget A Lot ๐ง
A smart contract can execute perfectly and still know almost nothing about what happened before the current transaction.
That's a weird limitation when you think about it.
What if a lending protocol wants to know whether a wallet repaid its previous loans?
Or whether someone held an asset for 90 days?
Or what that address did across multiple chains?
Space and Time was built around making those kinds of historical and cross-chain questions available to smart contracts, with Proof of SQL proving the result instead of asking the contract to trust a database.
That's why I wouldn't really put $SXT in the generic L1 bucket.
Something like $SUI is focused on making blockchain applications faster and easier to build.
Space and Time is solving a different headache: giving those applications more context.
Execution matters.
But knowing what you're executing against matters too.
