I find that floating losses are really noisier than floating gains, even if I only lose 13 USDT, my mind will start overthinking: Did I make the wrong move back then, did I not set a stop-loss, should I wait a bit longer and it would come back... On the other hand, when I have floating profits, I’m more like “Eh, it’s okay,” and I’m even too lazy to look at it more. Honestly, losses force you to make decisions immediately, the red number in your wallet pops up like a permission prompt, urging you to click “Confirm,” which is really annoying.

Recently, watching those blockchain games with economic collapses feels quite similar: inflation kicks in, the studio runs away, the coin price spirals, and everyone can’t sleep better because losses are continuous and accompanied by regret. Anyway, I now give myself a very short cooling-off period, like waiting 20 seconds before acting, so emotions don’t mistake “Cancel” for “Confirm.” That’s it for now.
