These days, watching everyone grind tasks during airdrop season feels like going to work.

I'm actually more inclined to slow down.
Playing with leverage on the blockchain—honestly, sometimes it's not that you're wrong about the direction, but that the oracle price feed is slow:
The price has already soared or crashed, but the contract still thinks everything is calm.
By the time it reacts, liquidation happens in one go, with slippage and fees hitting hard, and even the quickness to "add margin" doesn't help.
Now I prefer to open fewer high-leverage positions, choose price feed mechanisms that are transparent and update steadily, and leave some room in my positions...
Slowing down isn't about lying flat; it's about giving myself time to react.
Anyway, living longer is more important than just racing to score points.
