I’ve found that what affects my sleep the most isn’t actually that I didn’t make money—it’s that little floating loss just hangs there… I clearly know that not selling is only fluctuation, but my brain automatically starts fabricating thoughts like “Should I add to it, should I stop, could it get even worse?” Floating profits, on the other hand, are easier to treat as if they don’t exist—you think, “It hasn’t been tucked away yet, so it doesn’t count.” In plain terms, loss aversion is what’s acting up.



Recently I’ve also been seeing the whole “social mining” and “fan token” setup—“attention is mining.” I’m also really conflicted: once you start scrolling, it feels like you’re working for other people. There’s too much information, and the more you look, the more anxious you get. My filtering method is pretty crude: I only look at charts near my order range plus large on-chain transfers (as a crude “wind direction” indicator). Everything else in hot posts I treat as noise. If I miss it, then I miss it. Placing orders is like flying a kite—wait for the wind. For now, that’s it.
