Last night, halfway through a review, I suddenly remembered that one of my wallets still had “infinite authorization” enabled, and my mind immediately didn’t feel steady—kind of like the feeling of realizing, right before sleep, that you didn’t lock the door. To put it plainly, withdrawing permissions isn’t about being obsessive or clean-minded. It’s about giving yourself an escape route: you think you’re managing risk, but you’re actually managing your emotions. Fewer hidden hazards means fewer times you’ll jolt awake in the middle of the night.

Recently, we’ve been talking again about social mining and fan tokens—things like “attention is mining”… the more I look at it, the more it seems that attention is often the first thing that gets mined away—by me. Once I get carried away, I click agree, click authorize. Whether I lose money afterward is one thing; but that shame of “I wasn’t even aware I did it” is what hurts the most. So now I’m treating it like practice: after each trade, I quickly check authorizations, and if I can revoke them, I do—like stretching. It’s not to beat the market; it’s to keep my own impulses from leading the way. For now, that’s it.
