Recently, I saw someone blame a mysterious organization for getting "clipped by the snip"… Basically, with the block builders + bundle setup, you don’t need to learn how to code to understand it. Retail investors only need to know three things: the transaction you send may not be included in the block in the order you see; others can bundle a series of transactions and insert them; your slippage/market orders are just scraps that can be harvested in others’ eyes.

My own minimal approach is: if you can use a limit order, don’t use a market order; don’t set the slippage too high; when encountering shallow pools and high volatility, better to eat less than to force through blindly; seeing a bunch of "linked transactions in the same block" on-chain usually means someone is playing with bundles—no need for conspiracy theories.

By the way, the economic collapse in chain games (inflation + studio + coin price spiral) is actually very similar in mindset: seeing opportunities to exploit, then rushing in. But liquidity and exit barriers are written into the parameters, and everyone chooses not to read them. Anyway, whenever I see a "sure-win model," my first reaction is to find where the devil is hiding.
