To be honest, switching back and forth between the mainnet and L2 recently is a bit head-spinning. With a big ETH account, the gas can be just a few cuts away every time—gas fees are really not worth spending that money on a few more bowls of noodles. But when I switch to a smaller chain, I worry the slippage will be too brutal and the liquidity depth won’t be enough. Anyway, what I do now is get a quick look at the route first and then decide—save a little whenever you can.

Recently, there’s been no shortage of people in my social circle asking about hardware wallet stockouts. I actually think more than “hardware wallets being out of stock,” what we should be worrying about is the high frequency of phishing links. I just saw one a moment ago disguised as an “airdrop verification.” I clicked it and the wallet directly authorized—terrifying.

In plain terms: if you’re trying to move fast and save on gas, go with the L2. But if you want stability, take it slow on the mainnet. As for me, I’ll just be eating noodles while keeping an eye on-chain—security can’t be rushed or made do. This really isn’t something you can afford to be careless about.
