These days, I've been watching Layer 2 projects argue over TPS, fees, and subsidies, all boasting loudly. I might as well check if my own wallet is getting messier... The biggest pitfall of using multi-chain wallets for a long time isn't losing money, but asset fragmentation: losing a small amount on chain A, holding an LP on chain B, forgetting to claim an airdrop on chain C, and finally reconciling accounts feels like digging up old debts.
My current simple method is: keep only two frequently used chains in my main wallet, treat all other chains as "temporary workers," and clear them back to the main chain or the same stablecoin after use; once a week, export the address and take a screenshot of the balances (don't laugh, it really works), and clean up authorizations at the same time. Honestly, reducing the number of active lines of defense is more practical than any ecosystem subsidy. Sigh, I still need to check the nodes regularly, so for now, this will do.
