Borrowing and lending are most afraid not of a decline, but of discovering you're only "three steps" away from liquidation, and the moment your palms start sweating. My approach is pretty simple: first, stop and don't add to the drama, don't think "I'll hold on a bit longer and it'll rebound," treat the collateral ratio like a refrigerator thermometer—when it’s about to freeze, just close the door first. If you can top up the margin, do a little; if not, honestly reduce your position, pay off some debt first, and push the red line outward; if you really don't want to move, that's fine, but at least keep the warning alerts fully on, check again before bed, and don't wake up to find everything has been automatically decided by the system.
Recently, the social mining and fan token schemes that say "attention is mining" have been quite noisy. To be honest, attention is indeed valuable, but being valuable doesn't mean it can serve as collateral... The chain won't be gentler just because you're trending. Anyway, I’d rather earn a little less than practice my heartbeat near the red line. That’s it for now.
