The word "modularization" has recently been overused, but honestly, for end users, it boils down to two things: first, "don't get stuck." In the past, cross-chain bridges were clogged, L1s were expensive, and transferring assets was as anxious as waiting for a package; now, more chains separate execution from settlement, so your experience is faster confirmations and more predictable fees, at least preventing a single transaction from ruining people's mindset. Second, "don't get scammed"... In theory, modularization makes components easier to audit and replace, but in reality, the process is longer with more steps, and users can't tell which part went wrong, ultimately blaming the bridge or the front end.
By the way, looking at social mining and fan tokens with the "attention equals mining" approach, I feel a bit hesitant: attention is definitely valuable, but packaging it as mining sometimes feels more like turning emotional fluctuations into assets... Anyway, I just hope it doesn't turn liquidity migration into a competition to avoid traps again. Hmm, that's it. I'm off to work.
