These past couple of days, the information overload has been a bit annoying: a bunch of "Check out the big orders" and "It's about to take off" in the group chat, with KOLs hyping up the emotions. Honestly, no one needs to buy impulsively on my behalf; in the end, I’m the one who presses the button. I learned my lesson from the recent cross-chain bridge theft, and then I also encountered oracle errors. Suddenly everyone started shouting "Wait for confirmation," which is quite ironic—usually, we hate waiting the most.
I've also experienced that kind of feeling where following the news makes you think your information is faster, but the more you look, the more chaotic it gets, turning market watching into stalking. Recently, I just unfollowed a few accounts, and it instantly became much clearer... It’s not that they’re bad, but when my discipline is poor, any voice can be an influence. Now I only watch the order flow and stick to my rules: don’t act without confirmation, miss the opportunity if I don’t, anyway, it’s better than rushing in and getting hurt. That’s it for now.
