Recently, there's been more talk about sharding and parallelism, sounding like they're about to tear the chain into octopus tentacles, maxing out TPS and breaking costs... Things on Layer 2 are even more lively, with everyone showing off data and subsidies, louder than a marketplace. But I've been watching the memory pool for a while and have become a bit more calm: no matter how fast it runs, asset security and whether I can smoothly exit are the real issues.

Honestly, when I look at projects now, I ask two questions first: who manages the bridge, and can I cut losses if something goes wrong; when I really want to withdraw, is there enough liquidity, and will the withdrawal get stuck forever? No matter how loud the slogans, if the exit path is blurry, I just treat it like fireworks... beautiful to watch, but not suitable for savings. Anyway, I don’t pretend to understand everything; I just focus on the exit routes I can take.
