Lately, I've been feeling a bit anxious about on-chain liquidations... To put it simply, when the oracle feed price is slow, and the market suddenly swings, you might think your position is quite safe, but in reality, the liquidation line has already been broken through by the "updated reality." Especially in highly volatile and low-liquidity situations, a delay of just a few minutes is enough to turn you from an observer into a participant.
What I regret isn't the outcome, but the fact that I knew the feed price occasionally lagged yet still opened high leverage, thinking "there's still time." Now I plan to be more relaxed: lighten my positions, set stop-losses earlier, and prefer to earn less rather than risk more.
By the way, recently everyone has been testing testnets for incentives and points, speculating whether the mainnet will issue tokens... I might be tempted too, but if it really comes down to betting real money on the boundaries of the feed price and liquidation system, I think I'll hold off. I'll wait and see how the community handles these extreme situations first.
