Every time I see those builders package transactions neatly, I can’t help thinking: how much does a retail investor really need to know before it’s “enough”? To be blunt, knowing that it exists is all it takes. If I were to actually chase the ordering logic behind every bundle… I’ll pass. After all, it’s not them paying the gas anyway.

The group has been arguing about privacy coins again. Some are afraid of compliance, others are afraid of going around half-naked—exposing themselves. I understand both sides, but my approach is simple: with every new protocol, I always play in disposable wallets, then throw them away after. The urge isn’t greed; it’s the kind of curiosity—“Why hasn’t this thing been picked clean yet?”—like opening a blind box. I know, almost certainly, it’s just empty hype, but I still want to see what cheesy little “easter egg” is hidden in the code.

As for the block builders’ setup, I tell myself not to dig too deep. Dig any deeper and I’ll end up an MEV refugee. Forget it.
