In the past few days, I've seen people talking about the "high-yield pools" in chain games again, basically meaning inflation is chasing after you: the more output there is, the greater the selling pressure, and when the small amount of new funds in the pool slows down, prices soften, and everyone starts rushing to sell, eventually whoever runs faster loses less. Large addresses are not gods; sometimes they just cooperate with the hype to make a fake move. I've also been fooled by this kind of "whale appears to be absorbing the chips" act.
Recently, the attention shifts even more dramatically with memes and celebrity shoutouts. Veteran players advise newcomers not to take the last step, and I truly agree. Chain games are more likely to become the last step because the output is sprayed out regularly every day.
The only thing I can stay calm about is: when I see screenshots of returns/output, I don’t click to impulsively buy. First, I check on-chain whether "selling is more sustainable than buying," and whether the pool’s new funds are slowing down. I wait ten minutes before making a decision. Many times, after ten minutes, the urge to act isn’t as strong anymore.
