I’m increasingly feeling that grid/DCA is actually a “service fee” for being able to sleep: you admit you can’t predict the top or the bottom, so you use time to wear down your emotions. In contrast, going all-in at once is more like staying up late writing a thesis— the stimulation is really stimulating, but the next day your brain is also really blank… It depends on whether you want to keep checking the market every day for a sense of presence, or whether you want to leave your attention for your life.

Especially lately, with cross-chain bridges causing more trouble and oracle price quotes going haywire, everyone comforts themselves with the line “waiting for confirmation.” Put simply, it’s just being afraid that when you wake up, the blockchain will give you a “surprise.” Personally, I’d rather go slower and spread things out, have a bit less drama— and anyway, don’t take a loss in a way that’s too full of ceremony.
