These days, I've seen a bunch of social mining and points tasks again, and as I do them, it turns into "living for the badge"... Honestly, time is the real capital, don't be kidnapped by the leaderboard. Points and identity are of course useful, but they are more like "signals" in risk control, not the assets themselves; once the rules change or the thresholds are raised, the sense of presence you stayed up late to earn becomes very empty.
Memes and celebrity shoutouts that shift attention are also quite similar; when it's lively, everyone thinks they'll get off, but in the end, it's often newcomers who take the last baton. Anyway, right now I’m only watching two things: whether the pool is healthy and whether the protocol is willing to subsidize users long-term; as for everything else... do what you can easily, and forget about what you can't.
