Lately I’ve been stuck between grid/DCA and going all in—honestly, it’s not really about the strategy; it’s about sleep quality. Going all in is exciting, but when I watch open interest and funding rates heat up, and see that liquidation hot zones are packed with people lining up, I know I’ll probably wake up several times tonight. Grid/DCA is like breaking your emotions into smaller pieces; whether it makes money or not is another story, but at least it won’t be pierced through by a single needle.
The narratives around AI Agent and automated trading have been pretty noisy lately. The more on-chain interactions there are, the more “details determine life or death” applies to security. Things like authorization, private keys, and script errors really can’t be solved just by shouting that it’s “intelligent.” I’d rather move slower now: the rules are written in stone—execute when triggered, and if it doesn’t trigger, then it is what it is.
What I’m most afraid of missing out on isn’t opportunities—it’s waking up and realizing that I’ve again lost discipline because I got carried away.
