Lately I've been thinking about cross-chain bridges again, and it's really not something you can just click and finish. The "waiting for confirmation" you see is basically a safety net: if someone signs incorrectly on the other side, or if the data fed in goes wrong, at least there's still a chance to stop before confirmation. My kind of cautious position is even more timid; I only do small amounts on cross-chain, testing with one-time wallets. If it works, great; if not, I just take it as a lesson learned.

By the way, I thought about blockchain games where the economy collapses, inflation + studio manipulation, and the coin price spirals downward... If something goes wrong with the bridge, the emotional reaction is the same chain reaction—everyone rushes to withdraw. Anyway, I’d rather be slow now, wait for two more rounds, than rush and send myself into a trap.
