I tried once, specifically choosing a volatile period to do a small position experiment: with the same position, watching the exchange price felt stable, but suddenly on the on-chain side, a single spike “liquidated” me. Later, after reviewing the records, I realized it wasn’t an instant market crash, but the oracle feed was half a beat slow + a quick update at the moment of refresh, and the liquidation line was directly broken through… To put it simply, you can withstand the market trend, but not necessarily the “quote rhythm.”



Now everyone yells “wait for confirmation” when encountering oracle anomalies. I used to think it was unnecessary, but after experiencing it once, I understand: when the price feed is delayed, the most dangerous thing isn’t the drop, but thinking it hasn’t dropped. I also don’t dare to do too much with cross-chain bridges that have been hacked; anyway, the less uncertainty, the better. Keep positions smaller, leave some buffer, and sleep more peacefully.
