To be honest, lately I've been looking at projects like staking and shared security, and the returns stacked up seem pretty attractive, but I always feel there's an illusion layered on top: ignoring the "risk correlation." Security isn't Lego; if something goes wrong at the bottom layer, a chain reaction of issues can happen, and neither slippage nor delays can fix that.

AI agents and automated trading are the same; everyone is touting "fully automated on-chain interactions," but when it comes to details like signing permissions, contract upgradeability, and rollback paths, they start pretending to be clueless... I'm not sure if I'm just too conservative, but right now I'd rather earn a little less and first ensure there's an emergency exit button and that the worst-case scenarios are covered. If I can't make money, I'll just consider it tuition fees.
