Recently, I’ve been a bit obsessed with testing network points. I initially thought of it as practice, but the more I tested, the more I started to “expect to get an airdrop”… Honestly, once expectations are set, people tend to invest more time and attention, eventually turning it into emotional positions. My stop-loss is set very simply: spend no more than X hours a day, stop if I go over; interact no more than N times, close the webpage after finishing. Then there’s cost-based stop-loss: gas fees, cross-chain fees, various small authorizations, all adding up to a certain amount, and I won’t continue beyond that—better to miss out than be dragged along.

Seeing someone compare RWA, US bond yields, and on-chain yield products together, I also get tempted, but testing networks are more like “buying a ticket before playing the lottery”—don’t treat it as fixed income… I now just treat it as a workout log; finish today’s session and stop, pick it up again tomorrow. I can accept losing some time, but losing my mindset isn’t worth it.
