Recently, I saw someone scare themselves with a "unlock calendar," saying that selling pressure is coming.
I actually think what's more worth worrying about is: who are you really trusting with this cross-chain?
IBC sounds smooth, but essentially it's also message passing—just breaking the "bridge" into parts:
the source chain / destination chain must be reliable;
light clients / verification systems need to truly keep up with on-chain status;
relayers shouldn't cause trouble, but they also shouldn't be the bottleneck;
and further out, if the frontend and routing give you the wrong address, you won't even know who to blame...
Anyway, before I do a cross-chain transfer, I first think clearly: is this a "chain-to-chain proof" or a "person/multi-signature proof" chain?
NFTs can cut losses at floor prices, but crossing chains and falling into pitfalls is truly irreversible.
