Today I was educated by a “sandwich” again… You think you’ve found an arbitrage opportunity, but the moment you hit confirm, you’re actually paying someone else’s transaction fee. Plainly put, the candlestick chart you see is what other people are seeing about your order. Lately, AI Agents/automated trading has been really hot, and the narrative is flying high—but I care more about whether it has truly pulled the traps like authorization, slippage, and private keys clean. Otherwise, it’s just an accelerator: accelerating your losses. As for whether I trust data or intuition? I trust intuition more. The reason is simple—data often only looks smart after the fact, while my fast hands are the “smart” that makes real-time mistakes… Anyway, when I see good-looking NFTs, I still go in; after I buy, I go back to complaining about the bubble. I’m used to it.
