Lately, the "unlock calendar" has been flooding my feed again.
It feels like once attention is diverted, people tend to get itchy hands and chase those emotional fluctuations.
Honestly, it's just handing over your rhythm to others.
My clumsy approach: first see where the money is flowing—last night I casually checked a stable pool, and suddenly there were several new positions of over 200k USDC, which actually looked more like "someone is waiting for something" than a typical candlestick chart.
I also half believe that unlocking = selling pressure, but what I fear more is myself being repeatedly led by hot topics: today anxious about unlocking, tomorrow anxious about staking and redemption, and ending up buying at the loudest story-telling moments.
Anyway, as long as I see the pool structure unchanged and the fee rates normal, I hold steady…
Better to miss out than to become liquidity for emotions.
