Last night, I was testing points on the testnet when I accidentally clicked a "Claim" link with a slip of the hand. The page looked exactly like the real one, almost connecting my main wallet... Luckily, now I see a pop-up, I reflexively close it first. Recently, hardware wallets have been out of stock, and phishing attempts are especially frequent. It's not that I’m overly suspicious; the market forces us to be cautious.
Back to the points matter, honestly, it was just for practice. But as I kept clicking, I started to subconsciously think, "What could these points be worth in the future?" Expectations rise, and people tend to get carried away. My stop-loss is pretty simple: set a time and effort limit, like no more than half an hour per day, and stop if I sign more than three times; any action that requires importing a mnemonic or private key, even on the "testnet," is considered a liquidation line—if hit, I blow. Anyway, I’d rather have fewer points than leave myself with psychological debt. That’s it for now, I’m going to sleep.
