Recently, I’ve been seeing a bunch of tasks for testnet points, and I can’t help but feel a little suspicious: it was originally just meant to practice the feel for things, but now everyone treats it as if it’s “guaranteed/expected.” Once your mindset slips, it’s easy to get carried away. My stop-loss is pretty straightforward, and a bit old-school: first, set both a time and a number limit—like running only two nights per week, and if you go over, you don’t touch it; then set a cost limit. As soon as the Gas, cross-chain transactions, or buying small accounts start to become “dollar-cost-averaging-style” additions, I just stop immediately. The truth is, before the points are actually in hand, it’s all just air.

Also, I saw that when mainstream public chains upgrade/are maintained, people in the group start guessing whether the ecosystem will migrate… As for me, I’ll focus on permissions and fund flow first. I don’t understand the code changes in much depth, but whether the admin can pull the plug with one click, and where the treasury money goes—that’s the most practical.

What I’m most afraid of isn’t losing money, but treating my wallet like a wishing well. The more I make wishes, the harder it gets to stop. For now, I’ll leave it at that—I'll check tomorrow to see if there are any anomalies on-chain.
