Lately, doing tasks on platforms has become a bit exhausting...
In the past, earning rewards was like finding a bargain; now it feels more like clocking in at work: signing in, filling out forms, interacting, taking screenshots, and even fearing witches.
Finally, they give you a score and cut you off.
Honestly, it’s not about using the chain; it’s about working for the platform.
Outside, Layer 2 is still arguing over who’s louder—TPS, fees, or subsidies.
I’d rather see if there are truly new users on the chain, or if everyone is just running in circles driven by tasks.
It’s lively, but that doesn’t necessarily mean growth.
As for impulsive orders, I now have one habit:
I keep my hand on the keyboard and pause for 10 minutes first,
to check if there’s suddenly a large inflow or outflow on the chain.
If I don’t see anything, I accept missing out.
I’d rather be slow.
