Today I keep seeing a bunch of screenshots of “whale addresses entering the market / bottom fishing.” My hands almost went into conditioned reflex and I wanted to follow… But calm down—really, I need to think it through first: are they building positions, or are they hedging? A lot of big transfers don’t necessarily mean bullishness; they might just be tossing spot assets in and then casually opening shorts to protect themselves. Put simply, they treat volatility like their meal—if we follow along, we easily become fuel for an emotional trading cycle.
Recently, the modularization and the DA-layer narrative have developers talking up a storm, and users here are left completely baffled: what does that even have to do with my “floor price”… Anyway, when I look at whale movements now, I’m more inclined to favor tutorials that “lay out the trading path clearly,” like how positions change over time, whether they’re moving assets back and forth—rather than just taking a screenshot of balances to scare people. For now, that’s it—I was once again talked out of it by my own cautiousness today.
