I used to be a bit paranoid, always saying "I only look at on-chain data," imagining a whole migration epic whenever I saw funds move in bridges... As soon as the mainnet's gas fees rose, I’d get distracted halfway through writing a poem. Now I’ve found a compromise: for daily small and frequent transactions, I hide on L2 to save time and money; if I really need large amounts and security, I go back to the mainnet and pay that "proper tax," at least I can sleep soundly.
Recently, before and after that mainstream public chain's upgrade/maintenance, everyone was guessing whether the ecosystem would move away, and I was nervously anxious too. But honestly, whether to migrate or not isn’t about group sentiment; it depends on how deep the liquidity is, how smooth cross-chain transfers are, and whether you can tolerate the delay and fees. Slippage rhymes, but experience is the main theme... Let’s leave it at that for now.
