These days, there are new L1/L2 projects that are driving incentives to boost TVL. It’s also normal for long-time users to complain about “mine, buy, sell.” Put simply: there’s more “free money,” and the chain gets noisier—routing gets more fragmented—and in the end, it’s still transaction fees that foot the bill.

For ordinary people, the trade-off between gas and experience matters. My approach is pretty straightforward: for everyday small amounts, I put them on L2 and would rather bridge once to be hassle-free. If I really need to move large amounts, or if the signing permissions are relatively sensitive (like authorizations or contract upgrades), I still go back to the mainnet and get it done there—yes, it costs more, but it feels solid in the mind. And don’t break your actions up too finely just to save that bit of gas; once you start splitting things, slippage and failure fees hurt a lot more.

There’s one thing I still believe: the fee structure will ultimately filter out the noise and gradually bring the experience back to normal. That’s it for now.
