Lately, I feel more and more that what frustrates multi-chain wallets the most isn't the operation itself, but "asset fragmentation" that tears attention apart everywhere. Today, I casually browsed on the subway: one chain has some gas left, another chain holds an old LP position, plus a few airdropped small notes, it looks lively on paper, but the management costs are exploding.
I now have a bit of a "restraint" approach: concentrate the main holdings in one main wallet + two commonly used chains, and only keep enough for transfer fees on other chains. If I really want to farm or try new protocols, I use a temporary wallet, clear it after, and make a note of the transaction. Basically, I prefer to miss out on some opportunities rather than have my reconciliation feel like archaeology every time.
Recently, everyone has been talking about rate cut expectations, the dollar index, and risk assets rising and falling together. I actually prefer to keep my position structure clean: when macro sentiment rises, it's easiest to get overwhelmed and click approve carelessly. Anyway, my current principle is: merge when possible, close when possible, sign fewer transactions, authorize less, and stick to this for now.
