UUIDv7 takes the best of two worlds for distributed systems: auto-incrementing ID and UUIDv4. It keeps page splits and fragmentation out of primary key index, while also maintaining cryptographically secure randomness to prevent insecure direct object reference. (This obsoletes UUIDv4, which only tends to bloat every index and cost more with each write operation.)
