On a rainy night browsing Twitter, I saw someone discussing privacy coins/mixing—does it count as an "original sin"? Honestly, what I care more about is: can the project team be trusted, and not just talk about compliance while secretly changing things behind the scenes.
I’m a newbie, so I don’t dare pretend to understand GitHub and audit reports fully. I just look at a few simple points: Is the code maintained over the long term, or was it just thrown together overnight? Does the audit report clearly state the "unresolved risks" and the timeline? The most critical part is upgrade permissions—many pitfalls come from multi-signature setups—can a few people upgrade with one click, who are the signers, do we have to wait for a change, is there a delay? Anyway, the more centralized the permissions, the more anxious I feel.
If I could only keep one habit, it would be: first, extract and read the section about "upgrade/admin permissions" thoroughly.
