With lending and borrowing, I’m only focused on one thing right now: how many steps are left until liquidation. When it’s down to just three steps, don’t force it, and don’t keep checking your phone to see who’s yelling “about to reverse”… I usually cut my position a bit first, switch to more stable collateral, and make sure automatic reminders are turned all the way on—don’t wait for on-chain bots to make decisions for you. It’s even more true on the cross-chain bridge side: the more panicked you are, the easier it is to move money back and forth out of the incident, and even the fees can mess people up badly. Recently, memes and celebrity hype have started driving momentum again, and when newcomers get excited, they want to add leverage and chase. I honestly advise you: don’t be the last person to take the hit. There’s also a small habit that’s really life-saving—I set smaller targets, like only pulling your health factor back into the safe zone. I’m not trying to get it done in one step; instead, it helps you last longer. Live first, then talk.
