These days I've been seeing everyone talk about re-staking/sharing security, to be honest, when the returns stack up, don't automatically "stack" security as well. Often, the stacking is just an illusion... Before I interact now, I first calculate: whether the extra profit is enough to cover the psychological tolerance for an extreme scenario. Yesterday, I tried a new pool with 0.03 ETH, and it got stuck at the "waiting for confirmation" step for 7 minutes, and I started replaying the scenario of cross-chain bridge theft in my mind. Especially after that oracle had an abnormal quote, I trust the consensus of "waiting for a few confirmations" even more now. It's okay to be slow; don't save those few minutes and end up in a trap. Anyway, I’d rather eat a little less interest than share a security breach in shared security.
