Lately, the more I look at RWA on the chain, the more I want to laugh (and a bit panicked)... The so-called "liquidity" on the chain often seems like it's just for show; when you actually want to redeem, the terms flip: queuing, lock-up periods, limits, or even temporary suspensions. Basically, you think you can walk away anytime, but in reality, you have to wait. Waiting for confirmation, waiting for the funding party to release, waiting to see if you really consider it a stable asset.
These days, the group is again discussing staking unlocks, token unlock calendars, everyone fears the kind of selling pressure that could hit "tomorrow." I actually think RWA is more covert: it may not crash the market, but it could block redemptions. The price looks stable, but psychologically, it's the easiest to relax. Anyway, I first lower my exposure to hide my position, preferring to miss out on some gains rather than gambling on the "can sell" situation.
