These past couple of days, watching the market feels more like observing macro sentiment: when interest rates rise, everyone says they're not afraid, but in reality, they're all shrinking their risk positions. To put it simply, higher capital costs make even someone like me, who trades less frequently, switch from "trying to gamble a bit" to "just survive first." Stop losses should be set; otherwise, when emotions take over, it's easy to treat candlestick charts like a wishing well.
In the community, there's still debate about whether privacy coins and coin mixing violate compliance boundaries. I see it as quite divided: one side says "privacy is a right," the other says "don't invite trouble." My own approach is pretty cautious—I try not to touch them if I can, at least to prevent my positions from becoming an obsession.
Last night, I actually thought about leaving the group and uninstalling the app—too noisy... But then I figured, uninstalling isn't really a problem, just lower my risk appetite a bit, scroll less, sleep more, and see how it goes tomorrow. That's it for now.
