These days, watching on-chain "whale movements," there are people rushing to follow along again.
Honestly, the biggest fear is that you think they are building a position, but in fact they are hedging, buying with the left hand and selling with the right hand, with no net change in position.
If you follow in, you just become emotional fuel...
My slower reaction actually allows me to observe a bit more: whether the same address/related addresses are opening opposite positions at the same time, whether they are adding collateral to loans, whether the inflows and outflows to exchanges are one in and one out.
By the way, I want to complain about how recently L2s are starting to compare TPS, fees, and subsidies again, causing a lot of noise.
But for someone like me who is slow, what I care more about is whether the funds will stay or not—don’t let the subsidies stop and then everyone scatter.
Let me make an analogy: seeing the big brother next door buy ten bags of rice at once, you think he’s stockpiling food, but actually he’s stocking up for his store, about to sell it soon...
Following him to bring rice home, in the end, you’re the one who ends up taking up space.
Anyway, I’d rather miss out on some opportunities now than be led by “whales” to make volatile moves.
