When the funding rate hits an extreme, I get a little itchy to take the other side of the trade—but to be blunt, for the most part I still try to dodge the volatility… I’m especially scared of something going wrong over the weekend; even just randomly pulling on the bridge, oracle, or liquidation chain is already risky enough. You think I’m just eating the emotion premium, but in reality it might be that I’m just taking over for a whole pile of leveraged positions as their bag holder. The twist is: if I really were to take the other side, it wouldn’t be about “going against my beliefs.” What I care about more is whether the order book is being pushed around by bots. Lately, all that talk about AI agents + automated trading has been getting hyped a lot, and with the on-chain interaction permissions opened too widely, I just don’t dare—I’d rather make a little less than wake up one morning to find my contract authorizations are still active and my wallet has been drained. That’s it for now—alarms are on.
