Last night, I looked through my previous options trading records, and I got a bit scared: back then, I was too superstitious about "the buyer's losses being limited," and as a result, the time value was like tiny bugs nibbling away every day. Even if the market didn't move, it could still wear down your mentality. To put it simply, the buyer is racing against time; the seller is more like collecting the part that "won't come," but once a big wave really hits, the paper gains jump quite frighteningly, and you can't sleep peacefully. Recently, I've also seen a bunch of testnet incentives, token expectation forecasts, and people guessing whether the mainnet will issue tokens every day... When this kind of emotion takes over, it's easiest to buy long-term fantasy orders, only to be ultimately educated by time. Anyway, I now prefer to do less fussing and wait patiently for more certain progress.
