Last night before bed, I checked the on-chain data, and when I woke up, it had changed a bit... Sometimes you think you're looking at "real-time on the chain," but in reality, there's a chain of intermediaries like nodes, RPCs, and indexers passing messages. If one gets stuck or syncs a little slower, what you see will be "delayed." Not to mention, some queries are cached from the start, making it feel like the truth is delivered with a delay.
Recently, hardware wallets have been out of stock, and phishing links are everywhere. I'm even more hesitant to click on pages that claim to "check transactions / claim airdrops." Honestly, the information sources might be a half beat slow, and people might get too excited and slip up... I'm still the same as always—take it slow, operate less, and if I can sleep, I go to sleep first.
