These problems arise from poor blockchain design choices. Have you ever questioned the VM-smart contract model introduced by Ethereum and followed by so many other projects? Smart contract devs need to build the same primitives over and over again because the protocol doesn't provide them. You have serialized transactions on a shared world computer with no accounting of the tokens that run above the single native security currency that is ETH. As billions of $$$ in lost user funds have shown, DeFi on single currency Layer 1s, with all financial interfaces written by thousands of projects "by convention and best practice" at application level, is not good enough. Smart contract developers are entirely responsible for implementing all asset logic. Mistakes in any token smart contract can result in hacks or exploits, and any token smart contract may contain code to exploit users. Unlike other platforms, Verus identified the most useful and crucial functions (DeFi, identity, privacy, cross-chain, superior network security etc) needed in blockchain space and made it a core part of it, which gets shared with any project using this tech. By using a UTXO-based system and smart transaction technology, Verus is far more decentralized than your typical L1, and solves critical issues smart contract platforms suffer from.
