Recently, those "queue jumpers" on the blockchain are causing a fuss again. Basically, it's about who controls the ordering rights. You might think it's just bots snatching opportunities from each other, but in reality, the small trades of ordinary people are often the first to get squeezed out: same transaction fee, a slightly worse price, entering the pool a second late, and in the end, they have to take the blame themselves for being "slow."
Now I see block space like rush hour subway trains—everyone calls for fairness, but some people with monthly passes can still walk through the employee entrance...
And then there's this wave of attention shifting with Meme + celebrity calls to buy, lots of people just watching the fun. The old player’s advice of "don't take the last baton" sounds old-fashioned, but if the order on-chain gets mixed up, the last baton often doesn't even get in line, and you can only watch from outside as others get on first.
Anyway, I’m not chasing anymore. The keyboard clicks, but I’ll keep my hands tight.
