Night shift watching perpetual funding rates until my eyes hurt, casually scrolling and seeing a bunch of PFPs doing "membership benefits," honestly many times it's just buying an attention seat... Whether it can become a brand really depends on whether there's continuous delivery later, otherwise once the hype passes, only avatar pixels are left.

Recently, meme + celebrities shout a couple of times, attention shifts so quickly it's ridiculous, veteran players advise newcomers not to take the last step—I’ve heard it so many times I’m numb, but it’s actually useful: you think you're joining a club, but actually you're buying a ticket to take over. PFPs are more like emotional indicators for someone like me who trades short-term; if the momentum is too strong, I reduce my position, better to miss out than hold on stubbornly.

My mom asked me yesterday: "What can you actually do with buying an avatar?" I could only reply half-heartedly: some can join groups to listen to people brag, some can really get something... Anyway, I only trust discipline now, cut losses quickly, don’t treat socializing as an asset.
