Recently, a bunch of new L1/L2 projects are rolling out incentives to attract TVL. Old users are on the one hand complaining about “mining and selling,” but on the other hand they can’t help but still interact… My own principle right now is: I’d rather do less than get tricked. Put simply, treat your wallet like a “signing machine.” For every pop-up, check clearly who you’re authorizing and how much allowance you’re granting—don’t start with “unlimited,” and don’t leave it on by forgetting to turn it off after a couple of days. If something really goes wrong, you won’t even know where the money went.

FOMO is really annoying, so I set a limit for myself: I only use dedicated small wallets and small amounts of funds, and I don’t touch unfamiliar contracts with my main wallet. After I finish interacting, I quickly clean up all authorizations—I’m not counting on the project team to have a good conscience. Anyway, airdrops are just icing on the cake, not my salary. For now, I’m going to review the approvals on my frequently used wallets again.
