Everyone gets it: once interest rates tick up, the market suddenly remembers that “money has a cost.” Risk appetite pulls back first, and I get even more timid with my own positions. I’m not in a rush to chase new narratives—mostly I keep some cash on hand and wait for the emotions to cool down. Lately, the airdrop season is even more obvious: with a points system plus anti-bot/anti–anti-scam measures, the “farmers for free rewards” feel like they’re punching a clock for work. Watching it is exhausting… In times like this, I actually prefer to just be a spectator. On-chain data is like a series: the hype is real, and the exits happen just as fast. Anyway, my method is a bit dumb—when macro conditions get tight, I don’t tinker as much. When I feel impulsive, I shut off the task platform first, go for a walk, and then come back.
