In the world of cryptocurrency, the one phrase I fear the most is: "The project has been hacked." We have seen this news too many times, with funds evaporating overnight, communities falling into panic, and the previous excitement fading to zero in an instant. That feeling is like the foundation suddenly collapsing, leaving those standing on it with nowhere to escape.
Because of this, when I saw that Succinct had completed audits from OpenZeppelin and Zellic before launching on the mainnet, a sense of security suddenly surged within me. It made me feel that this project is not just thinking about how to launch quickly and generate hype, but is genuinely putting "stability" first.
I appreciate this attitude. Because safety itself does not bring about sensational stories; it rarely makes the headlines. But it is the most important foundational guarantee. Like the foundation of a skyscraper, you usually don't pay attention to it, but without it, the building cannot stand tall.
Some might say: "Audits cannot guarantee absolute safety." That's true, but at least it is a sign of responsibility. It lets the community know that the project team is aware and taking action to protect everyone's assets. This visible effort can provide a sense of reassurance.
In this industry, which is always filled with uncertainty, we have been searching for that "trustworthy certainty." The audit results from Succinct, for me, represent this certainty. It makes me feel that I am not standing alone at the forefront of the storm but that there is an invisible hand supporting the entire ecosystem.
A sense of security is, in fact, the most precious form of trust. Succinct is gradually building this trust through repeated validation.
