Recently, the narrative around parallel processing and sharding has been heating up again. A lot of people in my circle of friends have been sharing testnet interaction screenshots, and the expectations for points have been getting louder and louder. Honestly, whenever I see this kind of hype, I tend to look at the project’s actual deliverables and exit paths instead—not that I don’t have faith, but with positions, the more lively it is, the more I need to stay alert.

You ask if I’m not feeling any waves in my heart? Of course I am—after all, who doesn’t want to take a spot before tokens are issued on the mainnet? But thinking back to those past experiences of getting stuck on bridges because I was too greedy for speed, I decided to slow down. I’ll play in batches.
