Protocol design space refers to the complete range of possible architectural choices, incentive mechanisms, and governance structures available when creating a new blockchain or decentralized application. It encompasses all the technical and economic decisions that define how a protocol functions and interacts with its users. Exploring this space involves evaluating trade-offs between various properties, such as scalability, security, and decentralization.
