I’ve been staring at the mempool for ages, and it suddenly reminded me of cross-chain matters. In plain terms, IBC is trust in every “middleman” on the trusted chain—validators, relayers, and even the contracts themselves; every link can go wrong. Recently, testnet points have been getting farmed like crazy, but no one knows when the mainnet will actually issue tokens. In any case, I’m used to first noting the abnormal gas rhythm, and then taking my time to look.
