These days, I was educated once again by the "attention economy": whenever a hot topic changes, I can't help but scroll, can't help but want to follow, and as a result, I am most likely to pay the price in my emotions. To put it simply, being repeatedly cut off is often not because the project is bad, but because I treat attention as an asset and spend it recklessly.
Seeing that after the main public chain upgrade/maintenance, everyone in the group was guessing whether the ecosystem would migrate en masse, I also got itchy to check data on the chain. The more I looked, the more anxious I became... Later, I simply unfollowed a few accounts that constantly created a sense of urgency. Unfollowing at that moment felt a bit empty, like losing a sense of "information security," but after a couple of days, when I followed back only those that explained mechanisms and risk boundaries, my mindset relaxed a lot.
Now I set a dumb rule for myself: any new narrative first waits 24 hours, and I ask myself, "Do I really understand how it makes money and how it loses money?" If I don't understand, then forget it—just do that for now.
