In the past few days, I've seen re-staking and shared security being hyped up quite a bit, with layered yields stacking on top of each other, looking very attractive. But honestly, the risks are also stacking: the same collateral backing multiple places at once, if something goes wrong, it’s not just “less profit,” it could drag everything down together. I’ve closed the yield page for now to avoid my mind being inflated by the compound interest illusion...
And recently, that main public chain is about to upgrade/maintain, right? The community is speculating whether the ecosystem will migrate. I’m actually more worried about these nodes being the most likely to encounter issues before and after the upgrade. When everyone panics, they start moving their positions chaotically, and details like chain congestion, bridges, and contract permissions can become very problematic if something goes wrong. Anyway, I prefer to take it slow, eat less profit, and not use sleep as a cost.
