Recently, the narrative of parallel processing and sharding has started to resurface again, and it’s indeed lively, but the more I watch, the more I think: no matter how fast the chain is, if the money can’t flow out, it’s all pointless. Frankly, security and exit strategies are the underlying fundamentals.

In a certain region, taxes are increased, compliance is tightened/relaxed, and everyone’s expectations for deposits and withdrawals immediately change; on-chain, you can see the paths “changing posture” — addresses becoming more fragmented, jumps more convoluted, as if searching for a seam. Don’t just look at TPS and promotional images; first, think about layering assets, tightening permissions, and planning exit routes… I’ll start with this for now, and we’ll talk again next time.
