These days, I've been bombarded with a bunch of terms like "data availability / ordering / finality," and my mind is a bit bogged down, but if I think about the main thread, it's actually quite simple: whether the things I submit (transactions, states) can be seen by others, who helps me queue first, and whether it truly settles at the end. Basically, it's about "don't let me pay for nothing and get front-run."
The economic collapse of blockchain games follows a similar logic: data gets messy (ledger is opaque), ordering gets chaotic (studio front-running), finality gets delayed (coin prices spiral downward), and players start doubting what they're actually playing... I've been rug-pulled twice, so now I only try small positions, and if I see the protocol can't explain these three things clearly, I just ignore it. I'm tired, but still here, taking it slow and picking carefully.
