These past few days, I've been obsessively checking on-chain data to the point of questioning my life... Clearly, "on-chain data is always real," but the "truth" you see might already be several minutes late. Slow node synchronization, overwhelmed RPC queues, index services (those databases that organize on-chain data for easy querying) missing blocks or replays—you end up seeing: others have already completed their transactions, while yours are still "pending"; NFTs are minted, but your wallet looks like it has amnesia and nothing updates.

What's even funnier is that everyone is arguing about which L2 has higher TPS, lower fees, or more subsidies. I just want to ask: can we at least stop making my query records feel like a gacha game... For the same transaction, RPC A says success, RPC B still says not found, so I just screenshot it to save my sanity.

My current rule: don’t just stick to one browser or one RPC, look around a bit more, and don’t immediately FOMO and send another transaction just because you see "not on chain"... Otherwise, my nickname really isn’t just for show.
