Recently, I've been thinking about modular blockchains. To put it simply, the biggest change for end users might not be "more advanced technology," but rather more complex routing... In the past, you just chose one chain and stuck with it. Now, multiple execution layers / DA layers / settlement layers stack together, giving the feeling of: more bridges, more signatures, and more fee paths. As someone who likes to save a few gas fees, I find it pretty exciting—being able to choose cheaper options—but it also makes it easier to go down the wrong path.



And lately, hardware wallets are out of stock, and phishing links are rampant, which is a bit alarming. Modularization gives you more choices but also amplifies the responsibility: clicking the wrong fake cross-chain entry point, and no matter how modular the system is later, it won't save you. Seeing others smoothly cross back and forth, checking into various ecosystems—I admit I feel a bit envious... But I still prefer to take it slow, double-check domain names, and minimize authorizations whenever possible. Anyway, I don’t endorse any project—better to protect the wallet first.
