The concept of modular blockchains has been talked about for quite a while, but honestly, for someone like me who’s used to digging through blocks on-chain by myself, it feels more like adjusting the underlying architecture than a change in the front-end experience. What users basically want is simple: the chain is a bit faster, the Gas is a bit lower, and nothing goes wrong. Now that everything is being split—execution layer, settlement layer, and data availability layer, each doing its own job—in theory it can improve overall throughput, but end users actually can’t perceive what the “data availability layer” even is. As long as transactions can make it into a block, that’s good enough.

I’m more like a spectator observing a local build rather than a gambler heavily betting on which modular chain will win. As for the recent talk about testnet incentives, point expectations, and speculation about whether the mainnet will issue a token—honestly, don’t take it too seriously. Some projects get broken down into finer pieces, but in actual day-to-day usage, switching wallets is still annoying, and bridging is still slow. Have a cup of tea first, and then see whether once it’s truly rolled out, it can reduce friction for ordinary people.
