Lately, someone in the group has been shouting "Hurry up and interact or you'll miss the airdrop," and just hearing it makes me a bit annoyed... Honestly, I'd rather do less than get countered and lose out. My approach is pretty old-fashioned: only use a small account + small amounts, first see if there are a bunch of strange transfers on the chain pushing to the same address, then decide whether to follow. I basically avoid cross-chain bridges that had issues a few days ago; if I do use them, I wait a night first. And that time when oracle prices were acting up and everyone was "waiting for confirmation," I learned my lesson too—better to miss out on one, than to accidentally send yourself in during the middle of the night with quick fingers. Anyway, taking it slow keeps my mindset more stable.
