Recently, many people have been asking me whether retail investors should learn to "write code" when it comes to blockchain builders, bundles, and such. Honestly, it's not necessary, but don’t treat it as some kind of mysticism: as long as you know that when you click "market order," it might not be directly matched with the counterparty, and there could be someone bundling, front-running you, saving gas, or even making money for themselves.


If you want to manage risk, a sufficient understanding is: don’t place large orders in low-liquidity areas, don’t blindly trust "my speed," try to use order types that can prevent front-running, and if you see abnormal slippage, cancel the order—don’t stubbornly hold on.

By the way, the same logic applies to the NFT royalty debates: everyone wants "simple rules," creators want income, secondary markets want liquidity, and ultimately, it all comes down to how transactions are bundled and routed, who takes what share.
Anyway, I see simplicity as a trap—words like "won’t be front-run / definitely fair" are just for listening.
