The alarm clock on my desk has been ringing more often lately, reminding me not to get confused by terms like "data availability, ordering, finality"... Basically, there's one main point: whether that transaction you see is actually visible to everyone, the order in which it was included in the block, and whether it might be reversed in the end. Not long ago, there was another issue with cross-chain bridges, and I realized that many pitfalls aren't because the "blockchain isn't good enough," but because you think things are already settled when they're actually still in progress. After that oracle reported an abnormal quote, everyone collectively "waited for confirmation," which is quite realistic—taking a bit longer can actually be more reassuring. I'm still leaning towards stable pools with small leverage, preferring to earn a little less and sleep more peacefully.
