But the announcement has stirred up heavy criticism from the crypto community, who argue the platform goes against the very principles blockchain was built on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Permissioned Chain at Odds with Crypto Values<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Google\u2019s blogpost, GCUL is a <strong>\u201cprivate and permissioned system\u201d<\/strong> that leverages Google\u2019s technology to deliver near-instant, low-cost transactions, payment automation, and 24\/7 availability. The company says its long-term plan is to make the system more open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, many in the crypto space were quick to criticize the approach. On X (formerly Twitter), traders and analysts argued that by launching a <strong>centralized, corporate-run blockchain<\/strong>, Google is missing the essence of what makes blockchains valuable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a permissioned chain, run by an American corporation with close ties to the government. I don\u2019t think these people understand what \u2018credibly neutral\u2019 means in the context of blockchains,\u201d one trader commented.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Another user was even more blunt:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cFully centralized? Then they shouldn\u2019t even call it blockchain.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Industry Voices Weigh In<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The skepticism wasn\u2019t limited to anonymous traders. <strong>Eli Ben-Sasson<\/strong>, CEO of <strong>StarkWare Industries<\/strong>, compared Google\u2019s move to past failed corporate blockchain projects, including Meta\u2019s <strong>Diem<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cI think corporations doing L1s is ngmi [not gonna make it]. Including Base. I know this is a contentious opinion. But reminding you I said the same about Diem.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jon Charbonneau<\/strong>, co-founder of crypto investment firm DBA, also expressed doubt after first learning about GCUL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Features and Ambitions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the criticism, Google Cloud is positioning GCUL as a <strong>financial infrastructure tool<\/strong> for banks and institutions. In a <strong>LinkedIn post<\/strong>, Rich Widmann, Head of Web3 Strategy at Google Cloud, shared more details:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The blockchain will support <strong>Python-based smart contracts<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It is designed to simplify <strong>bank account management<\/strong> and <strong>cross-border transactions<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It will integrate <strong>multiple currencies and assets<\/strong> to remove the need for extra infrastructure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fees will be <strong>stable and invoiced monthly<\/strong>, unlike traditional crypto networks with volatile gas fees.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Google says the blockchain will eventually be open to its <strong>entire user base and \u201chundreds of institutional partners.\u201d<\/strong> For now, GCUL remains in <strong>private testing<\/strong> with no public launch date announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Bigger Picture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While Google highlights the efficiency and stability its platform could bring, the backlash underscores a growing tension between <strong>corporate-controlled blockchains<\/strong> and the <strong>decentralized ideals<\/strong> at the heart of the crypto industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udc49 Whether GCUL finds adoption may depend on whether users are willing to trade decentralization for convenience a debate that sits at the center of crypto\u2019s ongoing evolution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google Cloud has unveiled plans for a new Layer1 blockchain platform, dubbed GCUL, which it says will make cross-border payments and asset settlements faster and cheaper.
