Just now my phone popped up a red dot: there’s a new chain/new layer上线, and they say they are “modular” again... To put it plainly, for a end-user like me, the most direct feelings are two: more networks to choose from in the wallet, more transaction fees when crossing back and forth; and the execution quality should not drop, otherwise saving those few gas fees ends up losing everything on slippage and failed transactions.

Modular sounds very fancy, but in practice it means: the same application might run in different places, cheaper isn’t necessarily stable, stable isn’t necessarily cheap, I can only watch the confirmation speed, failure rate, and bridge risks, anyway, detailed calculations turn into “total accounting.”

By the way, thinking of the economic collapse of the chain games, inflation + studio刷 + coin price spiral, no matter how the chain is拆模块, it can’t save it, users still run when the experience is bad. For now, I don’t want to gamble on陌生桥 just to save on transaction fees today.
