Recently, someone started posting airdrop screenshots again.
I say it's impossible not to be tempted, but thinking about the previous times, I kept interacting and got "re-rolled,"
Gas fees spent, time invested, and in the end, I didn't get anything...
Now I prefer to "sit in the corner and slowly do some confirmed actions,"
rather than "seeing the hype and rushing in all at once."
My own approach is pretty simple: only use protocols I already need,
small amounts, few transactions,
if I can do it all at once, I won't split it into ten transactions;
separate wallets, regularly clear authorizations,
if I encounter a request to sign a bunch of strange messages, I just exit,
missed opportunities are missed.
Recently, staking unlocks and token unlock calendars have been repeatedly brought up,
the selling pressure anxiety makes people want to gamble more,
but honestly, I care more about not losing my principal now...
That's it for now.
