I find that I am much more sensitive to "floating losses" than to "floating gains." When I make a profit, my mind automatically acts as if nothing happened, at most thinking "it's okay"; when I incur a loss, even if I haven't sold and the account is only slightly red, I feel like I'm doing homework late at night, becoming more and more clear-headed, afraid that I might lose even more in the blink of an eye. Honestly, losses make me feel like I made the wrong decision, while gains seem like luck, and I don't dare to claim them.



Recently, I also feel quite relatable to the economic collapse of blockchain games: inflation hits, studios go all out, coin prices tighten screws downward, and when the account turns red, I get more anxious. The more anxious I get, the more I want to cut, and after cutting, I regret it... Now I also deliberately leave some buffer when dealing with NFT lending/staking, preferring to earn less and sleep peacefully, since I'm not here to compete with my own willpower. Occasionally, if I genuinely like a piece of art, I just buy it for happiness, and my mood becomes much lighter.
