It handed control of cross-chain liquidity to a handful of intermediaries, who it called โ€œbridges,โ€ wrapped assets in slick tickers, and pretended that was decentralization. Every time one of these house-of-cards systems collapses, billions vanish, and the rest of the industry shrugs, as if these were isolated accidents instead of warning sirens blaring across the ecosystem.
