Someone asked me why I always set stop-losses. I said, plain and simple, it’s just like a breakup: if you keep dragging it out without deleting people or blocking them, in the end it’s you who ends up being repeatedly dragged through the past. Positions are like a cat—today it scratches here, tomorrow it scratches there—so even small plays, used to “test the waters,” can still blow up your mindset. Recently, there’s been another round of cross-chain bridge hacks. At first I even thought, “Maybe if I wait a bit longer, it’ll come back,” but the longer I waited, the more it felt like I was working for interest. And after the oracle prices started acting up, everyone collectively “waited for confirmation”—it looks stable, but really it’s just giving your hesitation a place to stand. Anyway, I’d rather admit the loss and get out sooner. Then later I can go grab a bite in some other pool—at least I can sleep at night.
