Recently, I’ve seen more people arguing about privacy coins and coin mixing—whether they really count as “crossing the line.” In fact, it’s pretty similar to trading methods: some people just love the thrill of going all in, feeling like they’ve got “god mode” when prices rise, and starting to question life when they fall, with sleep quality basically tracking the market... I’ve also been carried away by it before—plain and simple, it’s putting all your emotions on the line.
Grid/DCA is even more like “removing a bit of yourself from the decision-making.” You don’t chase every K line—ups and downs just follow the plan, and even losses are something you understand more clearly. The downside is this: if the market truly rockets straight up, you’ll feel like you’re slowly picking up coins on the side, and you still have to hold your mindset steady.
Anyway, my current selection is pretty brutal: if this position will make me wake up in the middle of the night to check my phone, then don’t go all in. Only something that lets me turn off the lights and sleep is worthy of being called a strategy. That kind of divisive discussion about the boundaries of compliance is also like that—no matter what’s gray, don’t use “luck” as risk control for it. That’s it for now.
