Lately, people keep asking me whether blockchain builders and bundles need to understand them... Basically, retail investors just need to know that "my order might be front-run or sniped" is enough. You don't have to memorize a bunch of terms; just focus on two things: whether the execution is consistently slipping or deviating significantly, and whether the funding rates and open interest at the same time suddenly become suspicious (I especially watch this, and the more I watch, the more anxious I get). If you're really entering the market, don't use market orders to blindly rush in; if possible, use limit orders, and when on-chain, try to use protected routing or set minimum transaction amounts. Otherwise, you might get played by the order packing sequence and not even realize how much you've lost. Recently, cross-chain bridges have been hacked again, and oracles are still "waiting for confirmations," so I'm even more cautious now. When the market gets volatile, I prefer to shut down first... If I lose money, I follow the usual rule: stop for a week and don't argue with myself.
