Recently, people have been talking a lot about how awesome "modular blockchains" are. Frankly, for someone like me, a end-user, the most direct change isn't some architecture diagram... but rather: the same click on a swap, some chains have lower fees and faster confirmations, but what’s more annoying is the sorting system. When MEV gets involved, it feels like I’m always being cut in line. Miners/validators make a pretty good profit, while retail investors are complaining below about "fairness."

If modularization can truly separate execution and data properly, I just hope that in the future, I won’t get emotionally wrecked when a single transaction gets sandwiched in between others.

My own way to avoid impulsive trading is pretty simple: when I see something I want to chase, I first close the trading page and go get a glass of water. If I still want to buy when I come back, then I do it. Also, I start with a small amount to test the waters—don’t just throw a whole ice cream position on at once, or it’ll melt in the sun and I’ll have to run... Anyway, I get emotional pretty quickly, so I can only rely on these clumsy methods to help me out.
