Recently, I keep seeing a bunch of people watching “whale buying” and wanting to follow—I’ve been impulsive too… But the truth is: first figure out whether they’re building a position or hedging. Otherwise, you might be following a fake signal—getting led by someone’s act. On-chain, I just spotted a big transfer from CEX to 0x8a…c1b, and 5 minutes later it was split into two new wallets to open perpetual reverse positions. It looks like “stocking up,” but it’s more like spreading out risk cushions. Especially now, with memes plus celebrities throwing out a couple words and attention rotating fast—newcomers really shouldn’t rush to catch the last move. My rule is: if I don’t understand it, I don’t place an order; if I get an itch, I close the computer and go for a couple laps, then come back to see whether the volume and my emotions are still in sync.
