Recently, browsing on-chain data always feels like it’s “hanging,” but it’s mostly not your internet connection; it’s the middle layers catching their breath: wallets/front-end first hit RPC, and when rate-limited, you have to queue; some pages rely on indexers or subgraphs to piece together on-chain fragments into understandable tables, and if they don’t sync in time or the service provider hiccups, you get “still there a second ago, blank the next.”

My biggest fear isn’t slowness, but chaos—if it’s slow, I can wait; if it’s chaotic, I don’t even know if what I see is the same reality on the same chain.
Recently, new L1/L2s are incentivizing TVL, and it’s no surprise that veteran users complain about “mining, transferring, selling,” as more requests cause congestion, making data more prone to glitches…
Anyway, I now prefer to have multiple entry points for key transactions, even if it’s a bit more trouble.
