Today I got educated by myself again: I clearly just wanted to do a little trade, but one swap failed straight away—and they still charged Gas… I hit “stop” right there; don’t place the order while you’re stopped. Looking back, I realized I just filled in the slippage without thinking, and I didn’t even check the pool depth—when the price jumped, it threw me off the car. Even dumber was my order timing: even though the chain was starting to get congested, I still pushed ahead, basically using emotion as the accelerator. Plainly put, pause and look first: check the depth, see whether the fills are thin, and only then decide whether to split the order into several smaller parts and proceed slowly. Lately everyone’s been chatting about modular design and the DA layer, and developers are super hyped—meanwhile I’m a user and I’m completely lost. In the end, for me, the experience is: don’t blindly refresh, don’t randomly click—pause for a bit, and you might save your wallet from a few slaps.
