The cornerstone of trust in the Web3 world: it's not just immutable code.
In the Web3 domain, many believe that "immutability" is the ultimate guarantee of trust. However, this is actually just an entry-level threshold.
For the assets themselves on the blockchain, the immutability of the ledger is indeed credible enough. For example, the total cap of 21 million bitcoins, the balance of ERC20 tokens on Ethereum, the ownership of NFTs, or the completion status of cross-chain transfers, as long as they are recorded on the chain, are already credible enough without relying on human factors.
But for commercial entities, protocols, and projects in the Web3 ecosystem, an immutable ledger is merely a basic function. What truly inspires trust is not that it "cannot be changed", but that it "cannot leave" and "does not wish to leave".
The trust in Web3 does not lie in consensus mechanisms or nodes, but in the transactions between participants. Trust is built through repetition.
