Lately, the task platforms during airdrop season have become as strict as clocking in at work... The anti-fraud measures are getting more and more severe, and as soon as the points system is introduced, everyone starts competing to screenshot and interact. Honestly, crossing chains once requires you to first get your mindset right.

Others think that IBC/message passing is "native and very secure," just a click away.
In reality, every time I cross chains, I mentally review: Are both chains stable? Are there any pitfalls with light clients/relays? Are there backdoors in contracts/modules? Plus, I have to be careful with frontend and my own signatures to avoid mistakes... Bridges aren't necessarily bridges; they might be a series of components you silently trust, stacking up like a game of Tetris.

Now I mostly try small amounts multiple times and test with a one-time wallet. Even if I succeed, I don’t get excited—just consider it good luck. After all, I’ve been educated enough times to stay humble.
