I find people are really strange: when they are floating profits, I can stay calm and think "Hmm, just leave it for now," but when they are floating losses, they start to lose sleep. In the middle of the night, they check their phone to look at the chain, pretending they are doing "risk management." Honestly, it's not that the money is gone, but that the brain defaults to thinking that losses = mistakes, and they feel they need to fix the mistake quickly, or it’s like they’re constantly being deducted points.
What’s even more amusing and frustrating is that recently, cross-chain bridges have had issues again, and oracles report outrageous prices. When everyone collectively waits for the "confirmation" consensus to come out, I actually become more anxious: knowing that confirmation can reduce misjudgments, but the wait itself amplifies the sense of floating losses. Anyway, I now force myself to check only twice: before market close and before sleep. The rest of the time... forget it, pretend there’s no internet.
