When some crypto users were more interested in knowing and identifying the anonymous beacon chain, some users criticized the post.
Subsequently, one crypto-Twitter user replied to the above post saying:
Most people misunderstood this thinking it’s called a beacon chain when the actual name is Bankman chain.
