For whatever reason I always get too tempted and have to jump into these crypto-arbitrage posts that appear on here about twice a month.

This is by far the most informed reply I've seen in all those threads I've read.

Especially wanted to highlight the last two sentences: there is no way to do risk-free arb in crypto due to counter party risk with exchanges. Even if it might seem small, it isn't small! The opportunity size, scale, roi, etc need to outweigh that risk and (despite playing in this sandbox which I guess makes me a hypocrite but w/e, just trying to help...) I don't think it is worth it right now.
