Just realized something that's gonna change my whole strategy – can't slowly accumulate positions in public wallets anymore.
The moment I make this move visible on-chain, bots and traders are gonna be all over it. Front-running is basically guaranteed at this point.
So what's the play now? Gotta rethink how to build positions without getting rekt by MEV extractors watching every transaction. Anyone else dealing with this? The transparency of on-chain activity is both a feature and a curse.

This is what I've been saying all along—the paradox of on-chain transparency. Information symmetry actually creates new asymmetries, isn't it ironic?

That's why I switched to privacy pools long ago, otherwise it's really just giving away to bots.

This is the curse of Web3: the higher the transparency, the easier it is to be targeted.

Isn't this the fate of Web3? The more transparent it is, the harder it becomes to play.

Bro, that's why I now use private pools. Public chain transparency really is a double-edged sword.

This is the real dilemma of Web3—it's impossible to build a position quietly.

I should have thought of this problem long ago—privacy pools, flash loans, and OTC are gradually becoming essential options.

That's why you need to use a privacy pool; otherwise, on the public chain, you're just feeding the hunters themselves.
