Lately, I've been talking about blockchain builders, bundles, and these terms. Honestly, how much do retail investors really understand? I think there are just two points: first, the "transactions" you see may not be purely market counterparty trades; there might be someone batching orders or sandwiching you; second, don't be overly confident in your quick reflexes—on-chain, the fastest are always bots and block producers. The more detailed process steps make my head spin after a quick glance... Anyway, remember that large transactions, high slippage, and low liquidity are the easiest to manipulate.

Coincidentally, these past couple of days, before and after that mainstream public chain upgrade, everyone in the group has been guessing whether the ecosystem will migrate. My attitude is: whether it migrates or not, I can't control that, but during those few hours of the upgrade, I try not to get itchy hands—especially avoid chasing new pools during maintenance windows, as it's most likely you'll "click but feel like someone stole it."

My simple trick to avoid impulsive trades: first, close the trading page and check if the protocol's revenue and incentives still seem reasonable, and lower the slippage a bit; if I still want to go for it, only place one-third of the original plan, and wait for the next opportunity to do the rest. Stubborn as I am, losing money just makes me feel worse.
