These days, I’d say I’ve done a “mindset version update” for myself.
In the past, seeing social mining, points, and badges would make me itchy, afraid of missing a task chain, and I’d end up scrolling all night.
By the next day, after review, I’d realize: my time was drained, and my cost accounting was a mess.
Now I prefer to think of “identity/badges” as map markers, not the endpoint.
If I can interact easily, I do it; after finishing, I log it, take screenshots, leave traces.
If it exceeds the preset time, I stop—anyway, points won’t sleep for me.
Recently, everyone’s been complaining about miner/validator income, MEV, and fairness in ordering,
Basically, retail traders are busy with front-end tasks, and when backend rules change, it’s all for nothing…
So I’d rather go slower, follow the execution, and not be led around by badges.
That’s it for now.
