Testing on a testnet is definitely worth doing—don't get me wrong. Just remember it shouldn't become your only focus. Make sure you're also testing on mainnet conditions, monitoring real-world scenarios, and validating your contract behavior under actual market conditions. Balancing testnet experiments with production readiness is key to building robust protocols.

That's right. Playing around on the testnet is fun, but I've seen too many people crash on the mainnet afterward... We really need to strike a balance.

Exactly right, overplaying on the testnet can easily lead to self-deception; only going live is the real hell mode.

Bro, you're so right. The group of people who dare to go live on the mainnet right after testing on the testnet will eventually suffer losses.
