After night running, I casually checked the active addresses and bridge flow of L2, and the data is actually quite stable, no "apocalyptic signals." But people are just strange; even small unrealized losses can automatically be magnified into "Did I do something wrong again?" I can replay that candlestick chart even with my eyes closed before sleep; on the other hand, realized gains are quickly taken for granted, and some even complain about earning too little. Basically, it's too much loss aversion that torments people.
Recently, there's been more debate about rate cut expectations and the US dollar index moving in sync with risk assets—rising and falling together. I also can't understand what macroeconomic scenario they are trying to play out... But when I'm losing money, seeing these discussions only makes me more annoyed. The more I look, the more I want to add to my position or cut losses to "resolve my emotions." I now force myself to follow the data: as long as fees aren't exploding and addresses aren't crashing, I won't make reckless moves. That said, in the middle of the night, I still can't help but refresh once. Forget it, I'll run another round tomorrow to vent.
