Lately, I've been bombarded again with a bunch of "social mining/points tasks," basically just using badges to lure your time—filling out forms, sharing, checking into groups—and in the end, giving you a "status"... Whether that status can be converted into real value, I don't know, but at least my attention has been completely drained. What's even more outrageous is that some of them even ask you to connect your wallet and sign, with pages looking just like phishing sites. My security paranoia makes me want to lash out at a glance: if you want my signature, first clarify the domain and permissions.
These days, the fee rates are extremely high, and the group is arguing again about "whether to reverse or continue squeezing the bubble." Listening to that just annoys me: if you haven't managed your position risk, trying to find comfort by farming points is useless. My approach is pretty boring: if I can avoid doing tasks, I won't do them; if I do, I only use an empty wallet with minimal permissions—don't hang your main wallet out as a social business card. Alright, I'm off to work.
