One of the smartest thing I’ve seen in the crypto realm was the realization by the Codius folks some years ago that smart contracts are something that would benefit from an “off chain” execution framework/platform, independent of any specific blockchain. Hence, the cryptocurrency part is purposely orthogonal to Codius. I don’t think it’s tacked on, it’s more agnostic and it’s up to end users to decide what if any blockchain integrations they want. The potential for Codius (and yes, it is an ambitious vision, with a long way to go) is a framework where you could deploy much more functional and powerful distributed applications than would ever be possible with a blockchain based approach like etherium.
