My biggest fear now isn't the market trend—it’s that the more wallets I keep, the more often I switch chains. My assets get fragmented, like coins scattered in my pocket, and when I actually need to use them, I end up searching for half a day. My simple workaround: in daily life, I only keep one “going-out wallet,” and put in a few hundred dollars I’m planning to use this week plus a bit of gas. Everything else goes into a “storage wallet,” and I don’t touch it—period. Every time I bridge cross-chain / switch chains, I make a quick note: what this is for, and when I expect to use it. Otherwise, seeing a clump of tiny balances after two weeks will just make me question my life… Last night, I even waited two minutes for confirmation on a 0.03 remainder, and after it finally went through, I realized it wasn’t really useful anyway.
Recently, new L1s/L2s have been rolling out incentives to pull TVL, and the guys in the group have been complaining about “mining to sell,” which I can understand. In any case, I’m trying to get my flow organized first—I’d rather earn a little less than end up messing myself up with too many moves.
