Lately, I've been hearing everyone talk about blockchain builders and bundles. Honestly, I envy those who can immediately understand the transaction flow... I’ve only roughly grasped the outline after studying for a while. For retail investors, I think it's enough to know whether you'll get front-run, why it happens, and how to reduce the chances: don't keep using large market orders with obvious signals, break them up if possible, and try to use protected trading methods (like setting limits/slippage not too high). If you really want to jump into hot pools on-chain, just treat it as paying tuition. As for which builder is doing what, or how bundles are assembled, studying that is interesting, but it doesn't necessarily lead to safer operations. Also, I’ve been feeling the recent complaints about on-chain data tools and tags being outdated or even misleading... Anyway, I trust my own observation of transaction details and execution habits more now, rather than relying on screenshots claiming “smart money” is in. That’s all for now, take it slow.
