Discussions about restaking have heated up again recently. The idea of compounded rewards sounds great, but don’t treat the logic of shared security as a one-size-fits-all solution. Testnet token-earning farming and speculation about mainnet token launches are flying everywhere. In plain terms, everyone just wants to bet on a certain expectation, but any one of the pitfalls—like on-chain nonce failures or issues with transaction packaging order—can leave you working in vain. What I don’t regret is bringing an engineering perspective to look at these things; at least I wasn’t led astray by illusions.
