Recently, everyone has been arguing about staking unlocks and token unlock calendars. Honestly, I only realize it after the third time I see it... Anyway, I’ll just move all the inactive tokens back to the cold wallet to keep a calmer mindset.
As for the “queue jumping” on the chain (MEV/ordering), the more I look at it, the more I feel the impact is quite uneven: big players and bots can spend money to secure priority, while ordinary people are like waiting in line to buy bubble tea, being pushed past from in front of you, and even having your “slippage” taken away. You think you're trading, but actually you're providing certainty profits for others.
It’s not that anyone is inherently bad; honestly, the rules are just like this: whoever is faster, who knows how to auction block space better, takes a share of the value. The best we can do is try to avoid chasing the hype too much, not use overly aggressive settings, and split trades when possible... I don’t have any clever tricks either—taking it slow, being cautious is better than becoming fuel.
