Cross-chain matters (whether called IBC or various message passing/bridges), to put it simply, every time you press "transfer," you are simultaneously trusting a few things: the source chain won't rollback itself, the target chain's receiving rules won't be changed, the relayer/middleman won't send out incorrect messages (or get stuck), the light client/validation logic won't be written incorrectly, and the contract permissions on the bridge side won't leave backdoors. Missing any one of these could turn into "I thought the funds had arrived."
Recently, the group has been discussing stablecoin regulation, reserve audits, and de-pegging rumors, and emotions are quite easily influenced... but when it comes to assessing risk, it's better to look at permissions and whether there are abnormal fund flows than just forwarding screenshots. Forget it, speaking plainly: cross-chain isn't magic; it's a chain of trust, and the shorter, the better.
