Recently, I saw new chains/new L2s start incentivizing to attract TVL, and everyone is rushing while complaining "mining and selling," basically saying liquidity comes quickly and leaves just as fast.


On the other hand, when it comes to cross-chain, I’m getting more cautious: multi-signature isn’t foolproof, having more signers doesn’t mean they won’t all make stupid mistakes together;
Oracles shouldn’t be treated as divine commands—delays or feeding wrong prices can directly cause the bridge to be compromised.

So after I cross over, I’d rather wait for a few more confirmations, prefer to be slower.
It’s not that I believe blindly in “confirmation counts,” but it gives me a cooling-off period: wait until on-chain messages are stable, check for any abnormal large transactions, see if anyone starts withdrawing from the bridge.
Perpetuals can stop losses, but many bridge failures happen without even a “cancel order” option…
That’s all for now.
