It’s kind of funny—back then I thought L2 was basically a substitute for the mainnet: you get it for being cheap and fast. But now the new-pool launches have people front-running, and L2 gas has jumped three feet high too. Now I’ve learned my lesson—during normal small transactions, I route them through L2; but if I really need to move large amounts or hit a key time window, I still obediently go back to the mainnet and line up. I’d rather pay a bit more in gas—at least I can guess the packaging rhythm with about 80–90% accuracy. Now when I look at this NFT royalties game where it’s being cut and recut, with secondary liquidity constantly siphoning off to different chains, honestly it’s hard for regular players to make trade-offs. But at least keep the money where you can see the gas clearly, and don’t mess around blindly.
