I just glanced at the liquidation waterfall, and it reminded me of that sorting issue on a chain a couple of days ago. The data had already been broadcast, but the sorter stalled for a bit, and finality didn’t make it in time—so it directly ate the liquidation price spread from one of my loans… I was just bleeding out. Honestly, in the past I only watched the interest rate curve, but now I realize data availability and finality are the real invisible ceilings. Especially when your position is even slightly heavy, you get rubbed by the timing gap in no time. Lately, a bunch of people have been talking about how ETF fund flows link up with risk appetite in the US stock market. It makes me want to refresh the lending/borrowing panel from time to time too—I don’t know if it’s anxiety or vigilance. In any case, when I research all the way through, I find you still have to make sure those underlying lines are steady; everything else is just an emotion amplifier. So yeah, I’m increasingly trusting that one line from a certain protocol: first look at finality, then look at interest rates—don’t put things the wrong way around. For now, that’s it. I’ll keep watching the market.
