Recently, watching those “cutting in line” on the blockchain is still a bit exhausting, but I can't help but keep an eye on it. To put it simply, MEV/ordering isn't just about who makes a few extra bucks; it’s more like adding an extra layer of uncertainty every time an ordinary person clicks confirm: larger slippage, the transaction price being squeezed, or even someone seeing the same transaction first and bypassing it. For big players, it might be a cost; for small orders, it’s about the mentality. I just want to swap some coins or move a position, but it feels like being stuck in traffic with someone suddenly cutting in.
These days, everyone is talking about staking unlocks and token unlock calendars. I understand the anxiety and selling pressure, but what I fear more is “information gap + cutting in line” happening together, eventually turning into a race where whoever runs faster wins. Anyway, I’m trying to split my orders now, not chase after the excitement of confirming quickly. Take it slow; at least I can sleep peacefully.
