Lately, I've been a bit obsessed with earning testnet points, but I keep reminding myself: when "practice" turns into "expectation," it's easy to treat time as capital to gamble with. To put it simply, I first write stop-loss points on my calendar: if there are no new effective interactions/data for two consecutive days, I stop; or if a single project investment exceeds my free time for a week, I withdraw—no need to force it.
Actually, I also get carried away by the kind of "one more round and I might hit it" mentality in the group, but when market breadth shrinks and everyone's relevance is high, such expectations are more likely to turn into collective overcompetition. Anyway, right now, privacy coins, mixing coins, and compliance boundaries are causing intense disputes. I block any interactions that might "bring trouble," and even if points are tempting, I don't want the hassle of swapping.
