Recently I’ve been bouncing back and forth between L2 and the mainnet, and to be honest, it’s kind of confusing. The mainnet is really expensive, but some pools have liquidity depth right there—small funds can slide in and have slippage eat up half the profits… Later I tried farming on Arbitrum and Base; I saved a huge amount on gas, but every now and then I have to manually pause and check whether the cross-chain bridge is acting up, or whether the contract audits have found any new pitfalls. Yesterday I came across a post about an AI Agent that automatically interacts—blowing it up to the skies—but my first reaction was: stop. Hold on first. Safety—this stuff—wait until someone else has already stepped on the landmines for you. Anyway, my current strategy is: keep some long-term core positions on the mainnet, use L2 to run short-term high-frequency operations, and also stop and check the charts every few days—if I refresh too much, I’m likely to get itchy and make impulsive moves. In plain terms: compromise means don’t force it when you should stop; the gas you save is enough for two bowls of braised pork rice😌
