Someone just asked me again, "What's the point of so many confirmations on cross-chain bridges?" Basically, it's just to keep oneself alive... The biggest risk with bridges isn't that you're slow, but that you think you're fast. Multi-signature looks stable, but if the signers/machines panic, everyone will panic together; the same goes for oracles—feeding the wrong data once is enough for you to review the entire week. Waiting for confirmations may sound like nitpicking, but at least it can avoid reorganization, delays, and fake finality schemes.

Recently, funding rates are almost twisted into knots, and in the group, people are arguing whether to reverse or continue pumping the bubble. I actually prefer not to gamble on speed on the bridge; I'd rather be half an hour slow than jump across and find the floor on the other side isn't properly laid out. As for you saying "Isn't that missing the opportunity"... Well, I also have FOMO, but I'm more afraid that I wake up one day to find my assets in someone else's multi-signature.
