To be honest, these days social mining, points, and badges have me a little worn out… I spend every day staring at the task list to clock in, and it feels like I’m handing my time over to someone else to do data work. Points are definitely tempting, but to be blunt, the most expensive thing is your attention—and it’s also easy for phishing links to slip in and get mixed in amid the chaos. You just click once and it’s all gone.
I’m not even sure whether these “identities” will be worth anything in the future, but my current principle is: if I can avoid binding my main wallet, I won’t bind it; if I can sign fewer signatures, I’ll sign fewer; don’t empty out your seed phrase and your sleep just for a badge. Lately, the group has still been arguing about privacy coins, coin mixing, and the boundaries of compliance. No matter how much they argue, I’ll just make sure my own authorizations and addresses are isolated first… that’s all for now.
