Just now I almost uninstalled a cross-chain wallet again... Every time I click "Cross-Chain," my mind starts calculating: who do I trust for this asset? It's not enough that the chain itself is fine; I also have to trust the other chain, the relay/verification system responsible for transmitting messages, make sure the bridge contract isn't written to explode, and that the front end doesn't give me the wrong address. I quite like the idea of IBC; at least it clearly separates "what am I trusting," but honestly, it's not zero trust either—just that the components are more disciplined and auditable.

Recently, everyone has been talking about rate cut expectations, the US dollar index, risk assets sometimes rising together and sometimes falling together. I feel more anxious: when the market heats up, I want to move more into high-yield pools, but the biggest risk turns out to be cross-chain risks. Forget it, today I’ll hold back a bit—if I can avoid crossing chains, I will. Less profit, but I can sleep peacefully.
