Last night I got itchy again and chased a trade on the chain, clearly looking like a "safe arbitrage," but when it executed, the slippage felt like someone pushed me from behind... To put it simply, many times what you see as an opportunity is actually someone else's source of fees.
The sandwiching tactic is the most annoying: you think you're squeezing the spread, but they're squeezing your emotions; your speed and priority are on a different level.
Recently, Layer 2 has been arguing about TPS, fees, and ecosystem subsidies, and I find it quite amusing: it's cheaper, faster, but it also seems to accelerate the "being squeezed" process.
Anyway, I can experiment with small positions now, but for large positions, I’d rather earn less, play it more conservatively, or just not chase hot pools...
Forget it, let's not talk about it; the more I talk, the more I want to place an order.
