Lately, I’ve been confused again by words like “data availability / ordering / finality,” but then I thought, don’t fear nouns—just follow a main thread: who do you trust to keep the books, who’s lining up, and how long until this thing is truly settled. Can everyone see the data (otherwise, you can’t even check), who’s responsible for ordering transactions (is it fair or unfair), and finally, can you back out (don’t wake up one day to find history has been changed). I think the protocol TVL follows a similar logic: what’s visible counts, smooth ordering makes it user-friendly, and stable finality makes it safe to hold long-term.

By the way, I looked into that NFT royalty war, and honestly, it’s also a matter of “who has the say”: creators want certainty, secondary markets want liquidity, everyone wants to avoid getting screwed. Anyway, I’ll just sketch out the chart first, watch the cash flow slowly, feeling a bit down but not eager to rush in.
