Recently, many people have been complaining that "on-chain data is lagging," but in many cases, it's not the chain itself that has stopped; it's the layer you're viewing that's gasping for air: the frontend checks subgraphs/indexers, which are still catching up to the latest blocks, or RPCs are rate-limited/queued, and you'll see balances, NFTs, and transaction records acting erratically and lagging behind. Especially now, as L2s compete daily on TPS, fees, and subsidies, they talk a lot but data services and node resources can't keep up, resulting in poor user experience. Anyway, my own habit is: before key operations, refresh twice (using different RPCs/different browsers). If you see "not updated," don't rush to draw conclusions, and don't take delays as market signals either, as that can easily lead you to become a bagholder.
