Over the past couple of years, multi-chain wallets have become more and more popular, and asset fragmentation is really annoying: first one chain has a bit of gas, then another chain still has some LP positions—opening up a whole row of addresses makes me dizzy. My dumb workaround is to keep only 2-3 “main wallets,” and if I can avoid using other chains, then I’ll avoid them; concentrate the pools for stablecoins and blue-chip pairs, and just treat the scattered little coins as if they don’t exist—don’t keep tinkering. Every week, I set aside one fixed day to sweep through balances, authorizations, and LP positions, and while I’m at it, I turn off any unused approve permissions; otherwise it just gets more and more chaotic as you keep accumulating.

Lately, I keep running into retail investors complaining about MEV and unfair ordering—put simply, that makes me even less willing to spread my money all over the place. The more chains there are, the harder it is to keep track, and the feeling of slippage and getting sandwiched is even more obvious… In any case, I’d rather make a little less now and trade it for peace of mind. What about you?
