Someone asked me, "Is parallel + sharding the new all-in-one solution?"
What I actually care more about is: despite the lively buzz, where are the assets actually stored, and can they be withdrawn?
Honestly, it doesn't matter how fast the chain can run, but once you start crossing over, using bridges and multi-signatures, when something goes wrong, you won't even know who to cry to.
Recently, the social mining and fan token schemes that promote "attention as mining" have been quite noisy, and I see them more as disguising liquidity withdrawal as participation.
Anyway, when emotions run high, it's easiest to forget where the stop-loss button is.
My simple approach: first figure out the worst-case scenario for withdrawal, then decide whether to chase the narrative.
Just tell you one thing: don't treat security as a "replenish next time."
