I started recording what I’m actually earning from these LST/re-staking activities: honestly, the profits don’t fall from the sky, either someone pays a security fee/service fee, or a new project offers incentives to "invite" you, or market sentiment is priced in. The numbers look pretty, but the risks are very real: underlying staking/nodes malfunction, contracts get hacked, liquidity tightens and slippage is large when trying to exit, and adding another layer of re-staking is like stacking risk buffs... Recently, with airdrop season + task platforms and anti-witchcraft campaigns, everyone feels like clocking in at work and earning points. I don’t want to be carried away by the rhythm, so I first write down why I buy each time, what I’m afraid of, and how to exit, so at least if I lose money, I know where I lost it. Don’t want to be left only with “I don’t know either.”
