Recently, social mining, points, and badges have become popular again, even fan tokens are starting to talk about "attention as mining"... To be honest, what I fear most isn't losing money, but losing control: being led by tasks, check-ins, and interactions every day, with time fragmented beyond recovery.

On the infrastructure side, I actually feel more confident; metrics like node uptime, DA costs, block production/latency, at least have objective indicators and don't rely on emotions.
I also earn points, but only do so when it’s easy to verify the product; if it takes more than 20 minutes, I stop. Anyway, don’t exhaust yourself just for a badge.
That’s all for now.
