Lately, I've been feeling a bit dazed while browsing task platforms.
Initially, I just wanted to "give it a try" for some quick gains,
Now I have to bind a bunch of social accounts, fill out forms, write reports, and keep an eye on scores—like clocking in for work...
Honestly, more and more "witches" are appearing, and platforms are becoming less trusting of users,
Eventually turning into who can better perform as a "real user."
I'm nostalgic for the old PoW days, where the costs were obvious, and the hash rate curve could even be viewed as a macro,
But I also feel that the current reputation system is pretty mystical.
Not to mention the on-chain miner/validator earnings, MEV, and fair ordering—it's normal for retail investors to complain.
You wait in line for half a day, and someone cuts in, grabbing a transaction and pushing you aside—your mood just explodes.
Last night, my mom even asked me, "You click on these tasks every day, is that considered a real job?"
I could only reply half-jokingly: "Maybe... but it feels more like doing homework for the system."
For now, that's it. I don't want to add any more materials today.
