I’ve always felt that the word “modular” makes ordinary users think it’s like an engine swap. But for the people riding in the car, what they care about is still the same: will it get more congested, will ticket prices be more expensive, and will the brakes feel responsive. The places where there’s truly a change are probably just two: first, transfers/interactions won’t get stuck like a PowerPoint deck anymore; second, don’t cross-chain on a whim until you’re overwhelmed—otherwise assets could end up half lost, and you’ll have a total mental breakdown.
But now, a lot of projects’ modular narratives are, if we’re being honest, more like finding a funding angle for themselves. The end-user experience is instead being led off course by “testnet incentives” and “points expectations”… People tap around on-chain not because the product is easy to use, but because they’re betting on whether the mainnet will issue tokens. There are tons of L2s (Layer 2 scaling solutions), but in the end it still comes down to where liquidity will go and whether the narrative can keep “surviving.” Anyway, I’ll stay in stealth for now—once I’ve really built the experience, I’ll chime in.
