Recently, everyone has been arguing about testnet incentives, point expectations, and still guessing whether the mainnet will issue tokens... I’m a bit old-fashioned, so I first check GitHub and audit reports as "radio signals," and don’t listen to ads, just the background noise.
If a newbie wants to assess credibility, I think they shouldn’t just feel secure because of the words "audited": first, check if the audit is recent, which contracts it covers, and whether it clearly states unresolved risks. Don’t just look at stars on GitHub; also see if the latest commits are continuous, if there are bug reports in issues, and if the team responds seriously. Regarding multi-signature upgrades, honestly, it’s about "who can control the protocol"; having signers dispersed, higher thresholds, and preferably a timelock (to give everyone time to react) makes me feel more at ease. Otherwise, even if the points are attractive, it’s like listening to a fake station.
Anyway, when I see comments like "soon snapshot" or "go for it," I’ll first check these signals... I’m off to work.
