Lately I've been looking into re-staking, shared security, and these kinds of things, with layered yields stacking up, it looks pretty tempting, but I always feel like many people are stacking illusions: the underlying risks haven't disappeared, they've just been renamed or broken into several parts so you can't see clearly. Frankly, security isn't something that comes from just adding a few checkboxes on the UI.
Moreover, hardware wallets have been out of stock lately, phishing links are everywhere, everyone's security awareness has improved, but then they turn around and authorize private keys to a string of unknown contracts... I'm not against trying new things, I just habitually ask first: can I use it? Will I be able to sleep after using it?
I treat complexity as an enemy: if I can't understand the yield structure, I just pretend it doesn't exist. That's all for now.
