Just now my phone popped up a red dot: "Cross-chain deposit completed," but when I clicked in, it was still waiting for confirmation... Honestly, now when I see the "instant arrival" on the bridge, I get a bit anxious. Whether it's multi-signature or oracles, you only realize when something goes wrong that you're actually betting that those few people / those few data points don't all drop the chain at the same time. Move a bit slower, wait for enough confirmations, at least leave yourself an undo window, don't just blindly dump your position from one chain to another.
Recently, the NFT royalty issue has been quite heated, everyone wants liquidity, and everyone wants creators to get more... I see it like a bridge multiple-choice question: you want it fast, cheap, and secure, but you have to sacrifice something. My approach is still the old way, small amounts first, even if it takes a few more minutes, I feel more at ease. For now, that's how I'll do it.
