I recently set a rule for myself: stop. Stop binge-checking K-line charts, stop randomly tapping around, and stop to think—what on earth is modularization actually useful for me, as an end user… Let’s be blunt: it probably comes down to just two things. Transfers shouldn’t get stuck and turn into a slideshow (PPT) again, and on-chain actions shouldn’t have me paying fees every single time like I’m buying lottery tickets. If it can really make “using it feel like an app,” and I don’t have to understand how the backend assembles it like Lego—that’s a win.
But the reality is, going bridge to bridge, crossing this and then that—one careless move and you end up crossing yourself right out of the game… Especially lately, with everyone talking about tax increases and compliance getting stricter/looser. Once expectations for deposits and withdrawals shift, everyone’s mindset starts drifting too, and the more it drifts, the more they want to rush in. Anyway, my current strategy is: stop—take a look at whether I’m chasing hype or chasing my own life. If I lose, I’ll post a meme; if I win, I’ll shut up first. That’s it for now.
