Today it’s raining again and the roads are congested, I forgot to drink the coffee I left on the table, and when I come to my senses, the chain is arguing again: L2 your TPS is high, my fees are lower, and the subsidies are more aggressive… it’s making me a bit dizzy. Honestly, retail investors don’t need to study blockchain builders or bundles like academic papers; just knowing “your one transaction might be packed into a bundle and sent into a block” is enough. Someone will prioritize based on their own interests, and that’s all you need to understand. There are only a few things you can do: don’t chase prices when liquidity is thin, don’t recklessly use unknown private RPCs, if the transaction looks suspicious, assume you might be front-run, and don’t treat every slippage as a conspiracy. The rest—how builders split the profits or compete—is mostly written nicely in governance proposals, but the actual implementation secretly changes the details… Anyway, I’ve watched too many votes, trust the process, but I’m more afraid that “the process is correct, but people aren’t controlled.” That’s all for now.
