It's raining today and the traffic is so bad that my coffee has gone cold... Just casually talking about the price feeding issue. Many people think liquidation is just "when the price hits, it explodes," but there's a delay caused by oracle price feeds: if the feed is delayed, you see the market has already recovered, but the protocol still shows the "old price," and positions might be liquidated at the old price, especially during those volatile few minutes, which is really unfair. There's also a more awkward situation: slow price feeds cause some liquidations not to happen when they should, and when the update finally catches up, a cascade of liquidations can hit, making slippage even worse. Anyway, now I keep a larger margin when using leverage, and if I see on-chain price feed updates lagging, I reduce my position first... Don’t trust the liquidation line too much. By the way, that NFT royalty water war is similar: when rules change or updates are out of sync, the ones who get hit the hardest are often the least prepared. That’s all for now, the rain hasn't stopped yet.
