The biggest feeling I've had while watching the market these days is that liquidity is really a bit scarce, the order book is frighteningly thin, and a quick scan back and forth can easily sway people's emotions. Frankly, at times like this, I prefer to do less, first reduce my positions and leverage, set clear stop-loss levels, keep enough cash reserves, survive first, and then talk about bottom-fishing.
There are also a bunch of people discussing testnet incentives, earning points, and guessing whether the mainnet will issue tokens. I also check them out, but I set a limit for myself: don't let the time cost get out of control, and don't expose principal to uncertainty just for a "possible airdrop." Wait until the market regains some depth before gradually adding back. Anyway, opportunities are not limited to this wave.
