Modularization, to put it simply, the biggest change for end users is not "more advanced," but that as you use it, you might unknowingly switch to a different chain: bridges, wallets, Gas, confirmation speeds are all packaged by the frontend, making the experience feel like an app update. Who is responsible for executing the underlying operations and storing data? You don't bother to care. The benefit is that costs are easier to compress, but the downside is that problems become more "dispersed." Today it's a bridge malfunction, tomorrow it's a sorting algorithm glitch, and you can't even find all the scapegoats.
So what does that have to do with me?
The connection is that emotions are more easily ignited: a bunch of new narratives + new entry points, when the hype comes, everyone thinks "this time is different," then memes + celebrities shout, and the entire network's attention shifts. Veteran players advise newcomers not to take the last step, and the cycle begins again... I just keep an eye on social media hype and funding rates. When things get too exciting, I pull back first to avoid being emotionally swept away.
