Lately, I've been a bit exhausted by the "attention economy." Whenever a hot topic shifts, everyone rushes to follow. I’ve been tempted too, but looking back, many times I realize I’m not actually trading; I’m just working for my emotions. Honestly, the more I see "new narrative" or "next stop" flashing across the screen, the more I need to pause first and ask myself: Do I really understand how it makes money or how it could blow up? If I don’t understand, I shouldn’t force it—just forget it.

When news like cross-chain bridge issues come out, the group immediately splits into two camps: one shouting "buy the dip," the other shouting "run away." I now prefer to go slower, first checking who did the audit, who signed multi-signatures, whether past incidents are clearly explained; if I really want to cross-chain, I wait for confirmation—no need to fear missing out. When oracle anomalies happened, everyone suddenly agreed on "waiting for confirmation," which I found quite normal. At least it’s better than being led around by an abnormal quote.

Repeatedly getting liquidated isn’t usually a technical problem; it’s because you chase hot topics without boundaries every day. My simple approach is: if I don’t have time to research, I don’t touch it. Keep my position small enough to sleep well. When the hot topics are the loudest, I actually look away a few times first—no need to talk about it right now.
