Worked on one blockchain for years — now every job wants multi-chain skills. How are people handling this?

How do you explain to an interviewer the trade-offs of a single contract acting like both ERC-721 and ERC-1155?
Seeing developers discuss hybrid NFT standards always reveals something deeper: the interview challenge isn’t the syntax—it’s demonstrating architectural judgment.On AOB, threads that compare real trade-offs in protocol or...
