Migrating to Kava? I'll sum it up in one sentence: Don't believe in any "EVM compatibility" nonsense; avoiding pitfalls is what truly matters.
In the first week, make sure the environment is set up properly: RPC, browser, monitoring and alerting, none of these can be missed.
Parameters must not be directly copied from Ethereum; timeouts and fault tolerance must be adjusted according to Kava's nature.
Launch with the most core functionalities: exchanges and contract interactions; monitoring should focus on failure rates, delays, and authorization revocations.
Remember to create a "pitfall manual" to document error codes and countermeasures, so that future team members can save some hair.
Ecosystem integration should be approached slowly; aggregators and cross-chain bridges need to be tested repeatedly. It's best to simulate extreme situations to see if the chain crashes during congestion.
Three points that are easily overlooked:
Gas structure is different; batch processing and caching need to be re-optimized.
Permissions shouldn't be too broad; granting permissions based on need is safer.
Think about what to do in case of failure beforehand; don't wait until users complain to remedy the situation.
Set a firm goal: launch within 14 days, reach 1,000 weekly active users in 30 days. If you can't achieve this, quickly review and see if it's the toolchain or the process that has issues.
In summary, migration is not about technology; it's about efficiency. The better prepared you are, the more peacefully you'll sleep after the launch.
