Last night before bed, I saw yet another wave of hot topics rotating. The timeline was like a game of whack-a-mole—whoever makes the most noise gets the screen. To put it simply, attention is like chips. The moment you get anxious, you’ll be pulled along by your emotions, chasing after it until you finally realize you’re only taking someone else’s sell-off order flow. Now I’m setting myself a simple rule: when I see a narrative about “about to take off,” I don’t click the link first—I ask two questions: where does the motivation come from? Where is the sell pressure heading? If I can’t answer clearly, then I treat it as if it doesn’t exist.

Recently, in some regions taxes and compliance are being tightened and relaxed alternately. Expectations for deposits and withdrawals get tugged back and forth, which most easily pushes people into changing positions frequently. Anyway, I’d rather be half a beat slower—I’d rather miss it—than keep paying tuition over and over chasing hype. That’s all for now.
