Recently, everyone has been obsessing over token unlock schedules and staking unlock "selling pressure anxiety," but I'm actually more worried about another type of unlock: contract upgrade permissions. If a newbie wants to check "trustworthiness," don't just look at GitHub stars and commit counts; first, glance at whether the audit report clearly states the scope (what was audited, what wasn't), and whether issues found have been fixed; then see if the upgrade is multi-signature, who the signers are, what the thresholds are, and if there's a timelock. The biggest trap is the illusion that "passing an audit = security." I used to think an audit meant safety, but after reading the report: it only audited a certain library, and the core logic wasn't covered at all... Frankly, things that can be upgraded with a single click, no matter how beautiful the report looks, are only for reference. Also, don't forget to check permissions—forgetting to revoke permissions is a form of slow self-destruction.
