Recently, I've been hearing people talk about options, and honestly, the buyer is racing against time, while the seller is relying on time to slowly "collect rent." Who is time value really eating away at? Most of the time, it's the buyer's patience and hesitation that get worn down—you don't move, and it gradually diminishes each day; but when the market suddenly moves, that "stability" the seller thought they had can be wiped out in one go.



I personally lean more towards a Zen approach: I prefer to make fewer trades rather than constantly watch the expiration date and have my mindset worn down. Especially now, with cross-chain bridges frequently having issues and oracles occasionally acting up, everyone has learned to "wait for confirmation" first... In this environment, time isn't necessarily on your side; it might just be pushing the risk to a moment when you're not paying attention.

Anyway, I believe more in habits, not talent: slow down building positions, keep positions small, and use hardware wallets instead of hot wallets when possible. Being able to sleep well is better than anything else.
