Recently, everyone has been watching the extreme funding rate and arguing whether to reverse or continue squeezing the bubble.

I actually want to remind you: don't just look at the candlestick charts, the "reliability" of a protocol can be roughly gauged from several public materials.
Don't just look at stars on GitHub; check the update frequency, whether PRs are reviewed seriously, and if the key changes clearly state their motivations.
Also, don't just skim the conclusion page of audit reports; focus on whether there are high-risk items, whether they were ultimately fixed, and if the auditor mentioned "only partial coverage."
Upgrading multi-signature is more straightforward: who are the signers, is the distribution decentralized, are there delays or emergency pause switches— the more transparent, the more reassuring.
In short, I review these before opening a position to sleep more peacefully.
