These past few days, I feel like I’ve been doing version updates on myself: v1.0, whenever I see "on-chain data," I reflexively believe it; v1.1, I slowly realize that the numbers on your phone can also be "late." Anyway, it's not the chain lying to you, but the middle nodes/RPCs/indexes queuing, caching, and choosing routes... The same transaction, the timeline you see and others see might be completely different.
The group is again discussing stablecoin regulation, reserve audits, and various "de-pegging" rumors. Honestly, a lot of this emotion is amplified by this delay: you're seeing a scene from half an hour ago, yet you think you're participating in real-time. Now I tend to treat "what I see on-chain" as a lagging signal, take a breath first, then decide whether to act. Just like that for now.
