I set a rule for myself: don't rush to click confirm when the chain is congested. Mempool is basically just a queue; your transaction is first "watched" by everyone, miners/validators pick and pack it, and if the gas isn't enough, they slowly push it back; what's more annoying is that the longer you wait in line, the easier it is to get sniped or for your own slippage to wipe out your gains, and in the end, it might even expire, wasting a fee. Recently, the group has been talking about stablecoin regulation, reserve audits, and various "de-pegging" rumors. Honestly, as soon as people's emotions rise, they tend to impulsively place orders. I remind myself: first check the queue and congestion, then decide whether to act. Better to miss a chance than have your transaction sit at the door for too long. That's it for now.
