Recently, I've been feeling a bit guilty about farming testnet points: originally, it was just practice, but at some point I started defaulting to "I can definitely exchange for something" in my mind... Once it shifted from practice to expectation, my behavior changed, and I even considered taking shortcuts just to cross-chain bridge.

My stop-loss is pretty simple: set a limit for myself (time/transaction fees/number of authorizations), and stop once I reach it; then add a hard rule—any contract that requires unlimited authorization or isn't open source/has no audit info, I skip it directly, and I don't need the points.
Now, looking at the stacking and shared security yield stacking, being criticized as "copycat" isn't surprising; honestly, the risk transmission chain is too long, and on-chain evidence is overwhelming.
Farming points feels like working out and like a lottery— the more into it, the easier it is to get hurt... for now, that's it.
