Lately, watching the testnet points thing is really a bit funny and frustrating: originally it was just practice, but as everyone kept going, they started to have "expected returns," and then emotions took over the brain. Honestly, you're not practicing; you're using time + attention as chips to gamble on an airdrop illusion.

My own stop-loss is pretty simple: once it starts affecting the mainnet position discipline (like wanting to borrow money / leverage / stay up late to do tasks), I stop immediately; another thing, I give each project at most two days of enthusiasm, and if there's no clear progress by the third day, I delete the bookmark. Don’t tell me “what if,” because “what if” is just the scent of FOMO.

By the way, the NFT royalty disputes are quite similar: creators want stable income, the market wants liquidity, and in the end, it’s still retail investors’ expectations management that gets caught in the middle. Anyway, I now treat the “points = future money” thing as just air; keeping a calm mindset is more important than anything else.
