Airdrop hunter but not extreme, mainly focused on interaction costs and return ratios. Likes to write processes as checklists, helping newcomers avoid pitfalls and also for personal review.
Lately, I keep hearing people talk about block builders, bundles, MEV, and so on.
Honestly, retail investors don't need to treat it as a new profession to study…
I think it's enough to know "how not to get screwed": when you place a trade on a DEX, the transaction isn't immediately on the chain; it might be bundled, front-run, or sandwich attacked in the meantime.
A bundle is just putting several transactions together and inserting them; the usual results are increased slippage, strange transaction prices, or transactions that you click but end up being reverted.

My biggest frustration right now is multi-chain wallets plus a bunch of small assets, clearly not worth much, but the interface looks like a warehouse explosion... So I set a simple rule for myself: only keep 2 wallets for frequently used ones (one main wallet and one for interactions), and before each interaction, write a line "What's the plan this time," if it's not worth it, don't click. Regularly consolidate small on-chain balances, even if it costs $0.3 or a few cents in gas to clear out the fragments, otherwise it will be more mentally taxing to find them next time. Also, for each chain,
