These days, I keep seeing the benefits of re-staking and shared security stacking up, and someone in the group even said "passive income." My first reaction isn't to rush in, but to pause first. Earnings can be stacked, but so are the risks, especially when the underlying security is "shared" across many places. When something really goes wrong, it could trigger a chain reaction, making it hard to escape. Honestly, what you get might not just be interest, but also a chance of being dragged down with it.

The attention shifts driven by memes and celebrity calls are even more so. When things get lively, everyone gets itchy hands. I understand that, but veteran players advising newcomers not to take the last step isn't just show. Stop, observe, and pause for a while—look at how quickly liquidity is retreating on the chain, check the unlocking of staked assets and exit queues, and only then feel more at ease. Anyway, I’d rather earn less than fall asleep in the illusion of "stacking."
