Recently, everyone has been arguing again about L2 compared to TPS, transaction fees, and subsidies. The more they argue, the more I want to remind myself: slow down. Cross-chain bridges, to put it simply, are most afraid of being "fast." When you're in a hurry, it's easy to treat multi-signature as a catch-all, and oracles as the truth. No matter how many signatures there are, they are managed by people; no matter how smart the oracles are, they can feed incorrect data. When something goes wrong, it's not as straightforward as an on-chain transfer.

Now I usually approach bridging a bit more cautiously: try small amounts first, wait for confirmation before adding more, and wait a few more blocks on the target chain. I’d rather miss out on a little than turn myself into a "rushing liquidity." Anyway, my safety measures are still diversified: avoid crossing too many bridges, avoid locking too many assets, and slowing down makes me feel much more secure.
