Lately, social mining/points are heating up again. In the group, there are a bunch of people clocking in every day, forwarding posts, and liking them just to get a badge—put simply, they’re even more punctual than at work. For my part, I basically treat it like prepping ingredients in the kitchen: first, I check whether the rules are like a “hotpot base with unlimited refills”—the more steps there are and the more detailed permissions you have to request, the more I want to put down the ladle. As for identity, save what you can; don’t drain both your time and your signing permissions—so that, in the end, you only end up with a “I was here” sticker.

AI agents and automated trading are also pretty noisy. Some people use them as megaphones for storytelling, while others are genuinely nitpicky about security details. My personal approach is still the same three old habits: taste test with a small account, keep permissions to the minimum, and on the perpetual side, don’t get carried away by the funding rate—draw your stop-loss line first, so that happiness won’t be expensive. What about you?
