The past couple of days, I've been stuck in front of the cross-chain bridge again, waiting for "confirmation" for a few minutes that can really wear out your patience... In the past, I would rush over as soon as I could, but after being educated a few times, I realized: multi-signature isn't foolproof insurance; if the signers are on the same interest chain, accidents still happen together; oracles aren't divine revelations either—if the price feed is skewed, the assets on the other side of the bridge will follow suit, and in the end, you can't even clearly blame anyone.

Someone also asked me why I don't just use those "faster" bridges—honestly, yes, they are faster, but sometimes speed is just risk pre-emptively realized. Recently, the economic collapse of some blockchain games seems quite similar—inflation + studio involvement, coin prices spiral, everyone wants to rush ahead, but the more they rush, the more it crashes... Anyway, I now prefer to wait for a few more confirmations; taking it slow isn't shameful.

What I've learned isn't a technique, but: don't equate "can transfer" with "safe."
