The idea of modularity has been getting hyped everywhere lately—people talk about splitting it into a data availability layer and an execution layer, and it sounds pretty impressive. But for someone like me, a regular user, it’s basically just a different place to claim airdrops. Task platforms are getting so competitive that it’s ridiculous; daily check-ins and sign-ins feel almost like going to work, and it’s exhausting.

Later I thought about it and it’s kind of funny—what exactly has modularity changed? On-chain interactions still require confirmations and take forever, and gas is still expensive. The “free-money” crowd is busy trying to prevent Sybils, while project teams are busy rolling out points-based systems. In the end, the barrier hasn’t really gone down—the greens are still harvested batch by batch.

Forget it. I’d rather look at real on-chain address retention and loss positions—what feels like all the buzz is actually happening below the water; once it rises to the surface, it just dissipates.
