I've been lurking in the group for a long time, and seeing the discussion about block builders and bundles again, I can't help but share a retail investor perspective: actually, you don't need to study "who is packaging blocks" into a thesis; a sufficient understanding is—knowing that the order you place may not be executed exactly at the moment you click the button, and in the middle, it might be "cut in line/ squeezed in," especially with large amounts, high slippage, or chasing hot trends.
I personally remember three things: don't set too loose a slippage; don't rush in when liquidity is thin; if you can, use limit orders or split your orders into smaller parts. Think of it like an oven with unstable temperature—don't cram a whole batch at once.
By the way, recently, the kind of inflation + studio + coin price spiral collapse in blockchain games is actually like a liquidation chain reaction: at first, everyone thought it was fine, but then a chain reaction triggered, and no one could react in time. Anyway, risk control being "adequate"—living longer—is more important than knowing more.
