Recently, I've been looking at options markets again, and the more I look, the more I feel that time value is quite "silent": buyers are slowly being bitten by it every day, unless the market gives you a fierce enough fluctuation; sellers are like standing still collecting tolls, but it's not free—if a sudden spike hits, all the gains you've made before have to be given back, and that's not enough.

Now, many new L1/L2 projects are incentivizing to attract TVL, and old users complain about "mining, selling," but I can understand it—it's a bit like the seller's mindset, taking the certain time/incentives first, leaving the rest for the market to go crazy. I personally lean a little more toward the buyer side, with a small position, just chasing "possibility," not wanting to watch every day for a liquidation risk.

Honestly, I don't need to be understood; I just set a boundary for myself: earning slow money means accepting slow, betting on volatility means accepting wins or losses, and not turning emotions into strategy. That's it for now.
