These days, I’ve seen a bunch of “social mining + points + identity” gameplay, which sounds pretty lively, but I always feel that the easiest thing to be drained isn’t the wallet, but time… Daily check-ins, reposts, joining groups and spamming for badges—basically like burning attention as fuel. Points might be useful, but don’t treat “I missed out” as a KPI; in the end, you might forget what you’re even learning.

Recently, some regions have been tightening and loosening regulations on taxes and compliance trends, causing expectations for deposits and withdrawals to fluctuate. People become more anxious and want to grab some “certainty”—like getting an identity or setting up a whitelist. But the value of identity is usually in providing ongoing permissions, not just screenshots or social posts.

I’m currently more conservative: I only interact with projects related to modularization, DA, or Rollup that I genuinely want to study. Others are left to chance; if I don’t get them, so be it. I’ll focus my mind on technical posts first.
