I love that idea @Rick Carlino Maybe instead of Solidity you would just run wasm. And it doesn't have to be limited to compute, could just as well be storage. In society we use trust as that lowers the cost of transactions (besides making things nicer overall). I think there is a huge potential in exploring that idea as a most crypto bro solutions go the other direction of minimal trust resulting in insane overhead.

As for the offline aspect that mostly becomes a problem if you need to coordinate on something (typical example is coins and double spending). That is only one class of problems, it might be a lot more interesting to think about things without scarcity, think CI for software or anything related to simulations.
