Recently, developers are getting so hyped about modularization and DA-layer narrative, but it’s normal for users to look confused… To put it simply, beginners want to judge whether a project is reliable—don’t focus on the concepts first. Check three things first: GitHub, audit reports, and upgraded multi-signatures.

On GitHub, you don’t need to be able to write code—just see whether it “looks like they’re still working.” Recently, have there been continuous commits? Or is it just fake busywork, like only updating the README? Are bugs reported in issues and then responded to? Is the core contract in a separate repository rather than one big messy pile? For audit reports, don’t just look for logos either: focus on the conclusions and the “unfixed/known risks,” and whether the audit scope left out any key contracts. Finally, for upgrade multi-signatures: who can change the contract? How many keys are required? Is there a timelock (the kind that gives you time to react)? If it’s 1/1 or a temporary key change, or frequent upgrades, even a model that looks great can easily go off course.

In any case, when I look at a project, my first reaction isn’t “Will it go up?”—it’s “When something goes wrong, who can change the rules for my money with one click”… Off I go to get to work.
