When the funding rate hits extremes, I actually become less interested in "proving myself." Playing against the market sounds exciting, but honestly, you're just tugging with a group of people driven by emotions. Winning might just be luck, and losing means bearing the volatility and time costs. Right now, I prefer to hide a bit, observe whether there's continuous selling pressure on-chain, and see if stablecoins are truly flowing in or just circulating within exchanges.

Recently, I've been discussing rate cut expectations and the US dollar index, but risk assets tend to rise and fall together, with the market logic bouncing back and forth. Thinking about it later, it's quite amusing. Anyway, I stay quiet, avoid heavy bets during extremes, and wait until the rates normalize and the sentiment cools down before gradually increasing my positions.
