We have all experienced this situation. The opportunity is right in front of you, and the potential gains are clear; your intuition tells you to act.

Today, I was watching ETH break through the $3,211.32 threshold. All the trading orders were prepared, but I got stuck during authorization. By the time I reacted, the price had already moved away. It was then that I realized, in the market, a single step can make all the difference—no matter how perfect the setup, without millisecond-level execution, it's all pointless.

Sometimes, it's not the strategy that’s the problem, but that mere fraction-of-a-second delay that turns a stable 2x profit into a missed opportunity. This is the cruel reality of on-chain trading.

Authorization card gets stuck, and the gas fee takes half a day to run. This is the hell mode of on-chain transactions.

The moment the authorization card got stuck, I was directly overwhelmed. Watching the chart soar upwards but unable to move my finger... This is the most frustrating part of on-chain transactions.

That moment when the authorization card gets stuck is truly incredible, the feeling of watching double returns slip away... I've experienced it too.

I've also experienced that moment of authorization lag, it was truly intense. Watching the chart soar but unable to make a move with my finger.
