Lately I've been scrolling through various social mining, points, and badges again, but honestly I’m not really追ing them much anymore. It’s not that I can’t get any rewards and that’s a loss, but many bridges back and forth, wallet signing a bunch of things, in the end only get a “status,” wasting time and attention and easily getting into trouble. What I fear most isn’t losing money, but having funds stuck halfway, with liquidity so thin that I can’t get out, and I have to keep an eye on transaction confirmations before bed.
These days I also see everyone comparing RWA, US bond yields, and on-chain yield products, honestly all looking for that “seemingly stable” income, but the paths and risks are completely different. Anyway, my current principle is to slow down: open fewer new permissions, chase fewer new tasks, and if I really participate, do a small bridge run first. Don’t get yourself like clocking in at work just for a badge. That’s all for now.
