Lately, I've been a bit obsessed with testing network points. Clearly, it's just practice, but as I keep doing it, I start mentally setting "expected scores" for myself, then pouring all my time, Gas, and attention into it... Honestly, that's when I should set a stop-loss. I usually have two boundaries: one is a time stop-loss—if I keep repeating the same interactions for two days straight, I stop; the second is a risk stop-loss—even on testnets, if I encounter requests for strange permissions or prompts to interact with mixing or privacy-related bridges, I skip them immediately to avoid future compliance issues if regulations change, and I end up arguing with people in groups.
I see it more as doing homework check-ins rather than betting on "this will definitely be airdropped." Anyway, it's practice, and once expectations are set, people tend to lose control easily, so I’ll stick with this approach.
