Last night, I came across a yield aggregator, and the interface was flashing like neon lights.

The APY was written so high I almost thought I was the chosen worker… but when I clicked in, I realized the returns were actually from multiple layers of contracts bundled together, plus a bunch of “counterparties” passing the baton behind the scenes.
If something really goes wrong, you wouldn’t even know who to hold accountable.
Recently, when the cross-chain bridge was hacked, I became even more cautious: once the money crosses over, if the bridge malfunctions, I won’t even have time to withdraw.
And that time with the oracle giving abnormal quotes, everyone in the group was shouting “wait for confirmation,” which basically meant everyone was pretending to be dead and waiting for things to settle down.

I also had a moment where I didn’t understand and just didn’t act: I was planning to put a little money into a “auto-compound” pool, but the contract had an external call I didn’t recognize at all.
The more I looked, the more it seemed like handing the keys over to a stranger…
In the end, I didn’t confirm anything and just went to bed peacefully.
Losing a bit less is fine; the money is still there.
