Just now I saw people in the group chat arguing about testnet points again, and I suddenly couldn’t keep it together: it was originally just about “getting a feel,” but once I automatically assume in my head that it’ll get converted into some kind of airdrop, my whole brain starts acting like it’s in a drama—so much so that I’m even willing to go through weird interactions just for a tiny amount of points. To put it plainly, there’s only one way to limit losses: I set a “max spend before I stop” threshold for myself (counting time/effort/Gas). The moment I feel like I’m chasing expectations instead of validating the product, I stop right away—otherwise, in the end, all that’s left is resentment. And as for those on-chain data tools and labels that have been getting criticized lately for being laggy or misleading—there’s a reason for that too. When I see things like “high-quality addresses” or “smart money tags,” I just put a big question mark on them first; don’t let them lead you around. After all, this points thing is the one that’s best at cutting right into human nature.
