I just saw someone discussing stablecoin de-pegging, and it suddenly reminded me of something.

Actually, bank runs are kind of like slippage—when panic hits, everyone rushes to run, and liquidity gets drained instantly. But when it’s really time to run, you end up not being able to. Go slower, and you might be able to see more clearly whether the reserves are actually transparent or not. That’s how I see it: when I see large on-chain holders starting to move their holdings, I don’t rush to follow—I first watch which route they’re taking. Sometimes bigger slippage isn’t necessarily bad; it could be an opportunity.

Old players always say don’t catch the last baton, but honestly, people who lag half a beat often can see who’s swimming naked. Meme rotations move fast, and attention moves fast too—if you’re slower by a step, you might not get left behind. 😂
