Recently, whenever there's a hot topic, I remind myself not to follow my emotions. The attention economy is really a harvesting machine: first it makes you focus on the K-line, then it feeds you some "insider" narrative, and finally you get itchy to cross-chain or chase new pools. Basically, it's using your attention to exchange for their liquidity. Miners/validators' income, MEV, and fairness in ordering are also being criticized, which actually shows one thing: the "orderly transaction" you think exists is often just a wish. My approach is pretty simple: I’d rather earn a little less than save on that small fee; if I can avoid cross-chain, I avoid it; when I do act, I only use paths where I can clearly explain the trust assumptions. If I don’t understand, I don’t touch it. For now, I’ll verify the mechanisms and emergency plans of the bridges I use regularly.
