Noticed something about Osmosis - the high slippage across assets isn't a bug, it's literally baked into how the protocol works. Kind of a design choice that catches traders off guard.

I have heard a lot about osmosis being trapped by Slippage; it turns out this is the setting of the protocol, which is essentially digging a hole for oneself.

This slippage design is really awesome, I was just saying how I lost my money as soon as I entered.

Oh, so the high slippage of Osmosis is not a bug, I should have realized it earlier... this kind of frustrating design can really fool a wave of newbies.

Oh dear, this is what we often call a "design trap." I always get wrecked by the slippage here, thinking I've discovered a bug, but in reality, they've long set up this pit for us to jump into.

Ha, this is ridiculous... To put it nicely, it's a "design choice," but in reality, it's just a trap for retail investors.

The slippage is so high yet I have to force myself to use it, it's really ridiculous... Who came up with the design for Osmosis?

Oh no, isn't this the trap I've been complaining about? I've already been trapped by it before... is it a design flaw or intentional? Anyway, I got trapped.

Huh? So the slippage of Osmosis is not an issue, it's just how its parents designed it... This design is too impressive, I can't stop laughing.

With such a large slippage, it's good that the design considerations were made; luckily, we didn't lose everything right from the start.

Ha, this is why I never take a Heavy Position on Osmosis swaps, the Slippage is so painful that I become numb. What can I do with a design like this?
