Recently, I saw everyone arguing about "data availability, ordering, finality"—basically, it's one main issue: when you send a transaction, who sees it first, who gets to queue first, and whether it truly settles in the end. The longer the term, the more it seems like a cover-up; in reality, it's about "Can I be front-run, can I back out."

These days, retail investors complaining about MEV and unfair ordering are quite genuine. When miners/validators' income rises, it feels like you're waiting in line at a convenience store, and someone always slips money to cut in through the side door. Finality sounds very mysterious; I just take it as: don’t celebrate too early, until it’s confirmed, it’s all just a show.

Anyway, I’ll just keep my hands in my pockets.
