Honestly, when I first heard the term “modular,” it sounded pretty cool to me—like the decoupling of the DA layer, the execution layer, and the settlement layer, and it feels like the chain is going to turn into LEGO. But after I messed around with it for a while, I found that for people like us who stare at the mempool every day to scalp short-term trades… it doesn’t seem like there’s any particularly obvious, immediate change? 😂 The gas fees you’re supposed to go after are still the gas fees you’re going after as usual, and the cross-chain bridges that fail are still going to get stuck.

That said, lately I’ve been watching them analyze US stock risk appetite and ETF fund flows, and then somehow tie it back to crypto’s ups and downs—I’ve actually become a bit calmer because of it. In any case, I don’t like listening to those big, lofty explanations. My current habit is this: **whenever I start feeling carried away and decide to go in with a heavy position, I first cut off a minimal position to test the waters. If I lose, I’ll treat it as tuition; if I profit, I’ll figure out whether the logic is really solid.** Don’t just rush in and go all-in right away—give your hand some room to execute. Anyway, leave all the modular stuff to the builders to compete and iterate; I’ll focus on protecting my small position first.
