This morning, the traffic was terrible on the way out, and the coffee in the car had gone cold... Suddenly, I thought of that feeling on the blockchain where "you think you're taking a shortcut," but end up stuck between the bridge and the pond, unable to move.

I’m pretty indifferent to sandwiches and arbitrage now: what you see as an opportunity is often just the fees others have calculated. Especially with cross-chain transactions, when liquidity gaps and slippage are amplified, bots follow along with you. Honestly, you're just feeding them data and price differences. Recently, AI agents and automated trading have been very popular, but those who focus on security tend to be quieter. First, understand the traffic conditions and avoid walking in the dark—that’s more reliable than chasing narratives. Anyway, I’d rather go slower, confirm the route and pool depth, and not become a "case study."
