Just sat down to place an order for a sandwich, watching gas skyrocket from 90 to 300 right in front of my eyes. Clipper Bro finished the meat and ran off— I didn’t even get a sip of the soup. You say arbitrage is an opportunity? To me, it’s clearly paying “protection money” to MEV bots. Lately, unlock calendars have been coming one after another— the fear of sell-pressure from staking unlocks has everyone on edge. As for me, I don’t dare chase orders at random anymore; I’ll just grind some points and survive—at least the fees are lower. SocialFi is pretty much the same: even the mutual-follow games can still burn a bonfire to keep warm. On-chain arbitrage? That’s the axe they use to light the fire—if you reach out, you’re just the kindling.
