Remember the previous market cycle, a single trade would only incur about 1.5u in slippage, and the trading volume could reach 33,000u. Now? Even 2u of slippage is considered lucky. I really can't take it anymore. With such high trading costs and the fact that the returns in this cycle are mediocre at best, it feels like every operation is a loss. Some trading opportunities are visible, but once you do the math, you realize you simply can't beat the slippage. When will these days end? When can we return to that comfortable market rhythm? Every day I wonder, when the next cycle comes, will there be a chance to earn some real money again.

Such high wear and tear make it impossible to play; it's really just working for the exchange.

The wear jumps from 1.5u to 2u, and the price difference is really incredible. Feels like doing charity.

The slippage has skyrocketed from 1.5u to 2u... I need to check the on-chain data; it feels like whales are manipulating the gas fees behind the scenes.

Wear increases from 1.5u to 2u, which is as frustrating as some smart contract permission control vulnerabilities. You know where the problem is but just can't get around it. Waiting for the next cycle? Why not first review your own trading logic for potential "integer overflow."

Wear increases from 1.5u to 2u, and this price difference can eat up half of the profit. I really can't hold on anymore.
