Recently, I saw a bunch of words like "data availability / ordering / finality," sounding like metaphysics... I can only focus on one main line: at the moment you place an order, who is "first and who is later," and whether "this transaction is truly finalized." Frankly, slippage and being front-run often get stuck in the ordering; and when you think you've completed the trade, a rollback/reorganization can happen, and if finality isn't in place, it's all pointless. Last week, I encountered the third delay in on-chain data tool labels; even though the pool was already crowded, it still showed "normal," misleading me into engaging with bots. Anyway, I now prefer to split orders more slowly, wait for an extra confirmation layer before acting. That's all for now.
