When the funding rate hits an extreme, my first reaction isn't "bet against the other side to earn the rate," but rather to first block my own wallet access: whether authorization is given recklessly, whether positions are mixed in one address... Frankly, no matter how attractive the rate is, it can't withstand a single needle poking to trigger liquidation. I occasionally take the other side, but only if: the position is small, stop-loss is clear, and I can accept being washed back and forth; otherwise, I avoid volatility, wait for it to settle down, and then decide. Less loss is profit.
Recently, social mining and fan tokens have become popular again, with slogans like "attention is mining"... I can’t quite handle it. Attention is indeed valuable, but if you stake your attention, you're also packing your risk along with it. Anyway, I have just one thing to say: stay alive first, don’t get swept away by emotional rates, stay steady, revoke authorization first, then take action.
