Validity of execution and order of execution.
Without considering smart contracts that's basically enough. With smart contracts there are many valid states that are very undesirable (e.g. pegs breaking, manipulation of prices to liquidate positions) this one would be a peg breaking that subsequently would trigger a cascade of liquidations, at the current state of solana that would also flood the network in people racing to try and grab the liquidation fees[1]
[1]: (a quirk of all of the smart contract platforms I know is that there is no way to ensure that X happens under Y conditions, so instead what people do is set up there systems such that if Y there exists riskless profit for anyone who can make X happen. So once collateralized positions become undercollateralized (e.g. backed by 1.1x) anyone that can return the lended assets (which need to be liquid & fungible) gets the collateral)
Who happens to be just one actor in the whole thing.

You mean like this culture?

And replies like this make it no better. Comments like this
> the whole thread isn’t calling anyone who works for Google “shills” but that decorum is totally acceptable on these threads
are basically not true. This whole thread isn't saying everyone is a shill, there is ONE comment that said that.
Crypto is full of scams, just like traditional banking. Yes there are people who absolutely shit on crypto here, but there's also crypto enthusiasts who can't take ANY constructive criticism. Both extremes aren't warranted. Stop pretending that crypto advocates are being victimized here...they aren't.
That’s not what the crypto shills have been saying for years. It’s supposed to solve everything because it’s trustless.
