Why can I stay calm? One small habit: every time I feel like impulsively adding to my position or pool, I first write down the "worst-case scenario" in my notes, then wait ten minutes before checking again. Many times, the fire just goes out.
Recently, I see everyone treating airdrop season like going to work, platforms even countering witchcraft and offering sets of points... Honestly, everyone is chasing "certainty." But doing AMM isn't really passive income; the curve is right there, you think you're earning fees, but in reality, you might be exchanging impermanent loss for that little bit of excitement. When volatility spikes, positions are passively adjusted, and the proportion of tokens you hold has long changed. If your mindset doesn't keep up, it's easy to treat the pool like a savings account.
Anyway, before I add to a pool now, I ask myself: what do I really want to earn? Fees? Or bet on the direction? If I can't figure it out, I do less, and don't treat my position as a matter of pride.
