Lately I've been interacting with airdrops again. Honestly, I'm most afraid not of missing out, but of getting "counter-rolled" and accidentally becoming liquidity fuel... So I've been deliberately slowing down recently: first, to see what the project is actually doing, whether the contract has suspicious permissions, whether the team is just making empty promises, and to confirm I can handle the worst-case scenario before taking action. Otherwise, if I get too excited and use multiple accounts, I’ll lose on gas fees and time first, and my mindset will also get blown up.

Especially now, with the main public chain upgrading/maintaining, the group is guessing every day whether the ecosystem will migrate. When the hype rises, I remind myself to be a bit slower: does it matter to me whether it migrates or not? I’m not a moving company. The only thing I can do is avoid betting on a single narrative, not to interact too "forcefully," and not to turn myself into the last pawn just to look like a good student in the eyes of witch hunters. Anyway, slowing down at least makes it less easy to get swept up.
