Recently, I've been looking into re-staking/shared security again. The returns seem to layer upon layer, and it's easy for my mind to get caught up in stacking buffs... To put it plainly, the money hasn't increased, but the risks have quietly been stuffed into the drawer: the same collateral backing multiple places at once, when something goes wrong, liquidation, confiscation, liquidity runs could all happen together, and the withdrawal curve might be drawn like an electrocardiogram.

I'm not regretting the outcome, but rather the illusion at the time that "everyone is playing, I’ll miss out if I don’t," which was a mistake. Now I care more about whether I can sleep through the worst-case scenario, whether I can withdraw at any time, otherwise those "stacked" gains aren't enough to buy peace of mind.
By the way, the NFT royalty debate is lively—one side says they need to protect creators, the other says it affects liquidity... Anyway, I only know that when rules change, everyone’s expectations follow, and in the end, those who pay the price are often the most emotional ones (like me used to be). That’s all for now, taking it slow.
