Widespread adoption came from easier to use systems that didn't require you to go out and piece things together.

High barrier to entry systems to keep out the "normies" is already a solved, and incredibly uninteresting problem.

Although I loved LambdaMOO and thought we could see an evolution of smart contracts in that direction but cryptobro greed might have ruined or soured that potential future.

You might like what my current employer is working on; Clockwork Labs. It's got a vaguely MOOish vibe. Can't show you anything public yet -- and I'm personally leaving middle of the month -- but it sounds like it might be up your alley.
