Recently, someone has been arguing over "on-chain data" as if it were an imperial decree, and I really want to laugh… The transfers, holdings, liquidations you see are often just versions "translated" for you by nodes/RPCs/indexers. Blocked, slow synchronization, queued indexing—just a little delay can make you start half an hour late. Especially during unlock days, everyone watches the token unlock calendar expecting selling pressure to come, but in reality, the data you're looking at is still on its way.
What I regret isn't the outcome, but trusting too much that "what I see on my side is just like this," without asking: which RPC are you using, and how far has the index been updated? Anyway, now when I look at on-chain data, I first check the delay, then the sentiment… Post-event reviews are much more useful than banging the table during the meeting.
