Recently, the group has been sharing about stablecoin regulation, reserve audits, and various screenshots claiming "de-pegging." Honestly, seeing so much of it can sway your mindset... I just remind myself not to be driven by emotions to increase leverage.
Regarding LST/re-staking, the returns, frankly, don't just fall from the sky: part of it comes from the rewards of underlying staking, and another part is lending out the "same amount of security" to collect rent (various point incentives also count as a kind of sugar). The risks are similar: smart contract failures, secondary staking leverage crashes, redemption queues drying up liquidity, plus when big on-chain players move, you'll find the pool depth suddenly insufficient.
What I don't regret is always maintaining a light position, staking in batches, and setting stop-losses in advance. If the returns are slow, so be it—at least I can sleep well at night.
