When my phone rings, a bunch of red dots appear: in the group chat it’s “Quick, look at this” plus a screenshot of a KOL’s promotional post—and my finger is almost faster than my brain at hitting confirm… Then the slippage kicks in, and I start to wonder who, in the end, should really foot the bill for this impulsive buying. Put simply, group messages are like heckling, the KOL is like handing you the microphone, and the one who actually clicks is still me—pretty stupid, but also pretty real. What’s even more annoying is that lately people have been complaining about MEV and ordering: validators/miners are eating pretty well, while retail investors chase after pop-up notifications, and we still have to pay the price difference for the “cutting in line.” Anyway, now when I see red dots, I mute them first, compare two paths with an aggregator—if the slippage isn’t right, I let it go. I’d rather miss out than be led around by notifications again.
