Before, the moment I saw a big on-chain order, I’d get antsy and think, “Hey, isn’t this basically arbitrage—free money?” Now my first reaction is: am I just providing someone else with fee material, especially those sandwich setups that trap you so completely you can’t even get mad. When the trading screen gets lively, my social instincts make me want to rush in and join the scene—but the truth is, the thinner the liquidity and the bigger the slippage, the more it feels like I’m working for bots. Haven’t there been a bunch of testnet incentives and point expectations lately? Everyone in the group is constantly guessing whether the mainnet will issue tokens. I want to grab some too, but for now I’ll split the trades into smaller pieces and set slippage in advance—better to take a little less than get “sandwiched” into a sense of participation. Of course there are opportunities, but sometimes what you see isn’t profit—it’s someone else settling the path for you. That’s it for now. Time to refill my cup.
