Recently, Layer 2 has started comparing TPS, transaction fees, and subsidies, and the arguments are flying high... But what really discouraged me first was another matter: wallet security should not be gambled with. Don’t screenshot or upload your seed phrase to the cloud, honestly, even if you keep an eye on the market, if your seed phrase is gone, it’s game over. And those pages that say “Sign to receive airdrops/subsidies,” I now reflexively close them when I see them. Authorization either has limits or time restrictions; otherwise, they give you an unlimited quota, and your wallet becomes a public toilet.
A few days ago, I even set a reminder for myself: clear all authorizations every week, and set a small limit for each transfer. At first, it was a bit annoying, feeling it slowed down my operations, but later I felt more at ease—slippage is what it is, take a little loss if needed, at least I won’t wake up to find I’ve been working for a phishing site. Anyway, I’m not some big shot, just want my principal to last a bit longer.
