Lately I've come across a bunch of testnet point tutorials, and I feel a bit uncomfortable: originally, it was just practice, but everyone is forcing it into "expected returns." To be honest, once the expected return is established, people will automatically invest more time and effort, then start feeling dissatisfied.

My self-imposed stop-loss is pretty simple: first, calculate the "total cost" for each testnet—time, Gas fees, changing accounts and environments, mental exhaustion—all counted as money; stop once it exceeds that, no chasing tasks, no re-engaging. The second is informational stop-loss: if project rules change, treat it as a restart, the previous investments are considered sunk costs, and I won't deceive myself with "I've already done this."

Recently, with RWA and comparing US Treasury yields to on-chain yield products, it's the same story—basically packaging "possibility" as "certainty." Anyway, I’m currently just practicing with a learning mindset; as long as I learn the process, it’s a win, and points are just a bonus.
