These days, I've been carried away again by meme narratives, with the timeline all about "If you don't jump in now, you'll miss out." Honestly, it's a bit funny and a bit frustrating: I actually prefer stories that unfold slowly, but I still get itchy hands... Especially now, as everyone is simultaneously testing the network incentives and guessing whether the mainnet will issue tokens, the atmosphere feels like a giant wishing pool.
My current stop-loss is pretty simple: first, clearly define what narrative I'm actually buying into (a meme? community? or pure emotion), then treat "if the hype dies down, do I still want to stay" as the only standard. If I don't want to stay, I won't pretend it's an art collection; I'll keep my position small enough to sleep peacefully. If I really want to stay, I’m not afraid of short-term fluctuations, at most treating it as paying tuition. Anyway, I’d rather miss a fireworks display than blow up my mindset into fireworks.
