Recently, I keep hearing people say "modular chains" are so impressive. To put it simply, for us end users, the feeling is just two words: switching. In the past, a single chain handled everything, and if it got congested, everything was congested; now it’s like separating execution, data, and settlement, each finding a more suitable "backend," just tap in your wallet to cross over... The ideal state is cheaper and smoother, and airdrops also love to do "multi-layer stacking buffs," but it’s also easier to get lost: more bridges, more signatures, and a higher chance of being scammed.
By the way, in the group these days, privacy coins/mixing and compliance are causing a huge fuss. I actually think modularity will amplify this: the same frontend, connected behind the scenes to different "privacy layers/modular blocks," and in the end, users only see one button—choose whichever side based on your courage and needs.
My colleague just said: "Can you stop making me research chain names every time..." Yeah, truly. Let’s leave it at that for now.
