Oracles feeding prices, you know, usually no one cares about it, but when it comes to liquidation, it turns into "I have no idea how I died."


A few minutes of delay, and the on-chain price is still in the old world, while your position has already been sentenced to death in the new world: it could have been topped up with margin, but by the time you react, the liquidation bot has already finished the job, and by the way, it’s treating you as a liquidity source.

What's more embarrassing is that everyone is criticizing miners/validators for their income and MEV, yet they also expect ordering to be "more fair"...
In plain terms, slow price feeds + unfriendly ordering = the price you see is always a step behind the liquidation price.
Anyway, before opening leverage now, I check the oracle update frequency and anomaly protections, and when gas is high, I’m even less willing to bet on my reaction speed.
For now, living is more important than face.
