These days, I see the group comparing RWA, US Treasury yields, and on-chain yield products, having a lively discussion, but my first reaction is still: no matter how stable your returns are, if the feed price is delayed, liquidation can still come suddenly... To put it plainly, an oracle isn't "okay if it's a bit slow," it's that your leveraged position will be treated as if it's still in the old world. Especially during those moments of needle-like volatility, when the price has already dropped, you're still seeing the old quote, and by the time it updates, it skips your buffer zone, making it impossible to add margin in time. Anyway, my current approach is: don't set the liquidation line too close, I'd rather earn less; also, choosing the chain matters—if gas is expensive, I slow down, because slow = easier to be fed price and chain congestion teaching together. Someone in the group also complained, "It's not like it's my operation problem," but everyone understands—it's just that after being liquidated once, everyone becomes more cautious. That's all for now.
