Recently, I encountered a pretty annoying problem. Logging into the account on different devices suddenly triggered risk control—had a VPN on the computer, but not on the phone, and it was directly locked. This level of strictness is really outrageous.

Speaking of which, many people are now using the chat community of a major exchange. Think about it, in the future, the social functions of these Web3 platforms could completely take over some of the roles of traditional social apps. Cross-border, decentralized, less hassle—these advantages are right there. It won't be long before we see such a trend shift. Anyway, I am increasingly inclined to fulfill social needs within the ecosystem.

Risk control is really becoming more and more surreal; a difference in IP can directly lock someone out. That said, social interaction within the ecosystem still depends on who can first provide a good experience. Cross-border is indeed convenient, but popularity remains an issue. After being locked out once, I didn't want to log in again. Forget it. What is the ceiling for Web3 social? That’s the core, right? The network effect of traditional platforms is truly impressive; decentralization alone is not enough. I am optimistic about this direction, but the timeline might need to be pushed further back.

Risk control really is incredible; the same person logging in from different devices can trigger risk control measures, which is simply outrageous. Social interactions within the ecosystem definitely have potential; anyway, I am gradually abandoning those traditional platforms. With such strict risk control on VPNs, is the trading platform hinting at something? But honestly, Web3 social needs to wait a bit longer to fully take over; the infrastructure is not yet fully developed. The community aspect of exchanges is indeed growing, and the advantage of cross-border, no-approval transactions is evident—those who use it know. This risk control strategy is almost like censorship, which ironically pushed me further into embracing Web3. The migration of social features to the blockchain doesn’t seem like the future; it’s happening right now. With such strict risk control, no wonder everyone is flocking into the ecosystem—there’s just too much fuss outside.
