These days, the hot topics are changing too quickly.
Today I came across a narrative that made me eager to interact,
Tomorrow it’s a different chain and a different approach,
The easiest to get "liquidated" is actually attention...
I’m now forcing myself to first put "do / don’t do" into a table:
If I don’t understand the rules clearly, need to do a lot of preparatory work first, or it’s obviously about pushing data,
I’ll set it aside first, better to miss out than to be repeatedly led by emotions.
Honestly, airdrops aren’t about quick reflexes, it’s about not being led by the rhythm.
Additionally, recently some regions are tightening and loosening taxes and compliance,
Expectations for deposits and withdrawals keep changing,
It’s really easy to get emotionally overwhelmed.
So I simply stratified my funds:
Keep the ones that can be withdrawn at any time,
Treat long-term holdings as invisible,
Don’t chase the "new hot spots for re-accumulation" just because policies change,
In the end, the fees will wear you out...
My hands are sore, so I’ll leave it at that for now.
