Recently, the market has cooled down, liquidity has dried up, and I realize that the word "bottom fishing" is really quite luxurious... I now believe more in one thing: survive first, then talk about picking up bargains. Especially with cross-chain bridges, I have mixed feelings—love and fear. When on-chain funds are low, the limited depth in the bridge can cause slippage and lag, which can really wear down people's patience. If a patch isn't up to date, it's not just about losing a little money.
New L1/L2 projects are starting to offer incentives to attract TVL, and I can empathize with old users complaining about "mining, then selling." Basically, everyone lacks liquidity and wants to recover their funds first. Anyway, lowering my expectations has made me feel more relaxed: use less leverage, diversify positions, avoid bridges if possible, and if I do need to use one, I prefer to spend more time waiting for confirmations and checking recent patch records for vulnerabilities. Survive first, and opportunities will come naturally.
