I almost transferred my coins to the old address just now... I slipped while copying, added an extra character, and the few minutes before on-chain confirmation were more nerve-wracking than watching a K-line chart, serving as a reminder not to be overconfident.
Speaking of extreme scenarios with funding rates, everyone was crowded on the same side. I used to impulsively want to take the other side, thinking "go against the trend and you'll win for sure." Later I realized the hardest part isn't the direction, but having the patience to withstand volatility and managing positions. Honestly, I usually prefer to hide first: lower leverage, reduce positions, and only consider taking the other side when I can sleep well. Otherwise, even with attractive funding rates, a single spike can blow you up.
Recently, new L1/L2 incentives to boost TVL, and veteran users complaining about "mining, liquidation, selling" are quite real. Liquidity flows in and out, making volatility more like an emotional game. Anyway, I now have only one principle: better to earn a little less than to disrupt the long-term rhythm because of a temporary funding rate. That's all for now.
