Onchain First Does Not Mean Hard to Access

‍

Onchain first is no longer a tradeoff.

It does not mean less access, more friction, or narrower participation. It means the market is formed cleanly enough that access can scale without distortion.

That distinction is why Tea is launching with Aerodrome, onchain first.

‍

‍TLDR

• Onchain first is no longer a tradeoff, access has caught up to market structure.
  
  
• Tea is launching with Aerodrome so the market forms permissionlessly and transparently.
  
  
• Wallets and aggregators now surface access without users needing to understand venues.
  
  
• Tea will not provide execution instructions, mechanics live with venues and access layers.
  
  
• Clean market structure enables access to scale naturally.

Access has caught up to structure

‍

For years, onchain participation required workarounds. Manual routing. Fragmented UX. Users needed to understand venues to reach liquidity.

That constraint shaped how protocols launched.

It no longer applies.

Wallets, aggregators, and routing infrastructure have matured to the point where access is increasingly abstracted from the underlying venue. Liquidity can be discovered, routed, and surfaced without users needing to understand where it originates.

This launch assumes that reality rather than designing around its absence.

‍

What access looks like now

‍

Launching with Aerodrome means Tea’s market forms in a permissionless, onchain venue, without centralized gatekeeping or negotiated entry.

From the user’s perspective, that increasingly translates to:

• Access surfaced through wallets and aggregators
  
  
• Routing handled by the stack
  
  
• Participation without protocol literacy
  
  

The complexity lives below the surface.
That is the point.

‍

Why onchain first enables access, not the opposite

‍

Onchain first does not require every participant to interact directly with a venue.

It requires the market itself to be transparent, permissionless, and structurally sound so that access layers can route to it honestly.

When liquidity is formed cleanly at the base layer, wallets and aggregators do not need special handling, side agreements, or privileged paths. Access can expand naturally as routing surfaces mature.

This is how scale actually happens.

‍

Boundaries matter

‍

Tea will not publish execution instructions.
Tea will not reinterpret venue mechanics.
Tea will not validate screenshots or third-party guides.

Execution belongs to the venues and access layers that surface liquidity. Tea’s responsibility is to ensure the market structure is sound enough for those layers to function without intervention.

That boundary is intentional.

‍

Safety is part of access

‍

Periods of attention attract impersonation and misinformation.

Tea will not DM instructions.
Tea will not request private keys.
Tea will not endorse unofficial links.

Information that does not originate from Tea’s official domains or Aerodrome’s official pages should be treated as unverified.

A clean market requires clean information.

‍

The takeaway

‍

Onchain first no longer implies friction.

It implies that the market is honest enough for access to be automated, abstracted, and widely surfaced.

The structure is ready.
Access follows.

This is what launching into a mature onchain environment looks like.
