Just now, I really scared myself: I accidentally added an extra digit when copying the address, almost sending a small amount of swapped tokens to an unfamiliar contract... Luckily, I noticed something was wrong at the last second and withdrew to try again. Honestly, for someone like me with small funds, when you see "arbitrage opportunities" on-chain, don’t get excited first. Many times, that single confirmation you click is actually feeding transaction fees to others, and sandwich bots are much faster than me.

Recently, I’ve been comparing RWA and U.S. Treasury yields with on-chain yield products. My feeling is: you need to first stay alive to get that steady return, don’t get eaten up by slippage, MEV, or messy routing. Anyway, I now see myself more as doing disciplined trading: splitting small orders, limiting slippage, using familiar L2s, taking profits and then withdrawing, not fighting over seemingly profitable spreads. Today’s scare is a reminder to myself not to get carried away… that’s all for now.
