When I can't sleep, I browse large on-chain transfers; looking at it too much actually makes me more anxious... Recently, someone asked how a newbie can judge "credibility" from GitHub, audit reports, and multi-signature upgrades. My own rough method: first, look at GitHub—not the star count, but whether updates are regular, whether the bug fixes are done by the same few fixed accounts; don't just look at "approved" in audit reports—flip to the "Unresolved / Known Risks" page—can they explain it in plain language, are there follow-up patches; upgrading multi-signature is even more practical—who are the signers, what are the thresholds, is there a timelock—at least it shouldn't be possible to change the contract overnight.
By the way, I thought of the NFT royalty dispute—basically, it's about how trust is priced: creators want steady income, secondary markets want better liquidity, and in the end, everyone is watching whether the rules can be casually changed.
I'm not regretful about the outcome, but about only looking at "what the project team said" at the time, not "who actually holds the authority." That's all for now; my eyes are starting to dry out again.
