  "textContent": "Teemu and I discussed the possibility of Avalanche no longer requiring subnets to validate the main network.\n\nAt the time, I did not see the value - why wouldn't you just build on Cosmos?\n\nTeemu mentioned the possibility of raising from capital that needs to invest in an otherwise barren ecosystem.\n\nI now suspect they may end up sucking air off L2s instead of Cosmos.\n\nAlso, I think Avalanche has the advantage that they can tell any EVM story to those were looking to L2s.\n\nIt is something I hadn’t considered.\n\nIt might not pull away teams that are looking into Cosmos, but will impact those that look at the L2 landscape and decide there is not enough there for them.",
