Just saw someone in the group asking why on-chain data suddenly froze and stopped moving, thinking the wallet might be broken. In fact, it’s most likely that the RPC has been rate-limited, or the indexer hasn’t caught up yet. I used to think this stuff should come out instantly too. Now I get it—basically, “everyone is competing for the data pipe.” If one request gets stuck there, the rest queue up and wait behind it.
Recently, I also saw discussions about privacy coins and mixers, and the compliance boundaries are being fought over pretty aggressively. Sigh—on one hand there’s the need for privacy, and on the other there’s anti–money laundering. Either way, as a small retail user, I can only try to stay away from the controversial zones for now, so I don’t get wrongly hit one day.
Like baking bread: if the heat is too strong, it burns; if data reads are slow, that’s normal too. Just keep your mindset steady.
