Lately, I keep seeing the word "modularization," but honestly, for us end-users, it's not that profound in the short term: more intuitively, the chain might become more numerous, and the network list in the wallet longer, making transfers/interactions sometimes cheaper and faster, but also easier to send assets to the wrong chain, fragmented cross-chain fees, inconsistent confirmation times and user experience. When I look at the depth in the market, I become more cautious; as liquidity disperses, slippage and order cancellations need to adapt, or you'll easily get swept away by emotions.
These days, the testnet incentives and points expectations are making people restless, with all kinds of guesses about "Will the mainnet issue tokens"... I, for one, just pretend I didn't see it; if I can withdraw, I will, and I won't leave my main wallet with a bunch of unknown contracts just for a few points. There are many tutorials, but I prefer those that clearly explain interaction risks, authorization revocations, and cross-chain pitfalls—don't just teach you how to farm. Let's wait for the next wave to come.
