Today, I was browsing the blockchain and saw a bunch of "arbitrage opportunities." My first reaction wasn't to jump in, but to check if I still had money in my pocket... Honestly, many times you think you're picking up money, but you're actually contributing fees to others' sandwich layers. Putting a little of my money in is like adding dishes for the big players.
Recently, the debates over privacy coins, coin mixing, and compliance have been quite intense. It feels like everyone is taking a stance, but the chain still runs as usual. The more chaotic it gets, the easier it is to find all kinds of "seems very lucrative" holes. Anyway, I'm more relaxed now: I’d rather miss out than be seen as liquidity.
What I fear most isn't slowness, but chaos—slower is still manageable, but chaos can easily cause shaky confirmations, and before I even buy an avatar, my wallet might shrink first. That's all for now.
