In the past couple of days, I've seen more news about cross-chain bridge hacks. Everyone's first reaction is "wait for confirmation"... Honestly, right now, no one wants to be the last one holding the bag.
By the way, this makes me think of oracles and price feeds: you might think prices are real-time, but sometimes they lag behind, and liquidation processes are not slow.
Price feed delays = your position still looks safe on the surface, but when the chain's wind blows, the next update might show a worse price, and suddenly you're pushed below the margin level, with no chance to add collateral.
People like me who are always a step behind tend to lower leverage first, preferring to earn less rather than get wiped out by a "delayed blow."
Anyway, when I see certain pools suddenly start to freeze quotes or everyone is talking about "oracle anomalies," I just withdraw half and sleep a bit easier.
Talk again next time.
