I recently set a rule for myself: when I see claims on RWA being "highly liquid," I shouldn't get carried away. First, I check the redemption clauses and who guarantees the backing. Honestly, the trading volume on-chain can sometimes be just an illusion; when it comes time to redeem, there might be many restrictions: windows, limits, queues, or even offline confirmations... At that point, you realize you're not buying something that can be sold "at any time," but rather "theoretically sellable." These days, I've seen people mixing ETF capital flows, U.S. stock market risk appetite, and crypto market ups and downs in their analysis. When emotions run high, it's easier to overlook these small print clauses. I'm just practicing with a small position as a learning experience—at least to understand whether I’m buying an asset or just a story.
