Why does DeFi keep putting users in such tight spots?
The reality? Markets move at lightning speed—way faster than any human can keep up with. You blink, and the opportunity's gone. That's just the first problem.
Then there's the issue with manual trading strategies. They can't pivot fast enough when conditions shift. Risk just keeps piling up while you're scrambling to react.
And don't even get started on data fragmentation. Information lives scattered across different blockchains. Piecing it all together to actually track what's happening? Nearly impossible for most traders.
These aren't edge cases—they're everyday frustrations in DeFi.

NGL, that's why I switched to bot automation long ago. Manual trading is long overdue to be phased out.

Basically, it's that the human brain can't keep up with on-chain speed. A one-second delay in reaction means a loss. Who can tolerate that?

Really, the most annoying part is data fragmentation... Every time I cross-chain to look up information, I have to open a dozen tabs, and I still can't get the complete information.

Damn, it's the same old tune again. Fast speed, manual reactions are overwhelmed, but to be honest, these issues are nothing new, why are people still complaining...

NGL, that's why I still occasionally miss traditional finance... at least I don't have to compete with robots for speed.

Really, it was eaten up by slippage in the blink of an eye, so annoying.

Bro, that's why I lose money every day. My reaction speed can never keep up with the market...
