Recently, everyone has been talking quite lively about parallel processing and sharding, feeling like the chain is about to be turned into a highway. But honestly, what I care more about now is: can I get my assets out, where to, and will I get stuck when I do? No matter how smooth the technical narrative is, when it’s really time for you to retreat, if the path isn’t clear, it’s all pointless.
In the past two days, hardware wallets have been out of stock, which is also a sign of “progress” in security awareness; at the same time, phishing links are on the rise, with a bunch of fake airdrops and fake upgrade pages in groups. Anyway, my own rules are still the old three: authorize as little as possible, double-check the domain name before signing, and keep an exit route even with small positions—don’t get pushed around by the hype. That’s all for now.
