Today I saw the funding rate start to go off the rails again, and a bunch of people in the group shouting "Get on board and eat the fee," my hand itched... But honestly, I’m more afraid of being whipped back and forth in these extreme situations, making the other side profit from that tiny fee, and maybe a single needle will blow it all back.

My usual approach is pretty timid: either take a small position and go against the trend a bit, or just avoid the volatility altogether, and do some batch interactions on cheap chains, at least the gas won’t make me furious.
By the way, recently I’ve been into social mining and fan tokens, that “attention is mining” idea sounds pretty right, but as I keep scrolling I feel like I’m being squeezed for attention... There’s just too much information, and it’s a bit anxiety-inducing. My current filtering method is pretty crude: only look at actual on-chain actions + two or three addresses I follow, treat other noise as background chatter, and wait until I’m calm before confirming (then keep cursing the transaction fees).
