The thesis.
The internet’s media layer was supposed to be open. It isn’t. Packet rebuilds it from the bandwidth up: anyone with spare capacity can run a node, earn PKT on the Base blockchain, and route media — apps, channels, content, domains — to the rest of the network.
The result is a media stack where the underlying infrastructure isn’t controlled by three companies, and the apps on top can pay their hosts directly.
