After I muted the group, I felt much more refreshed... Looking less at comments like "Fee rate is exploding, rush in," and my hands stopped itching. During the extreme times of high funding rates, there are basically two paths: either you truly have confidence to go against the market (and can withstand being squeezed for a while), or you admit you're not the chosen one, avoid the volatility, and wait until the rates and sentiment cool down. I now lean more towards the latter, preferring to earn less than to risk my position during the loudest times.
By the way, recently hardware wallets are out of stock, and phishing links are everywhere. The more "hot" the market seems, the easier it is to make basic mistakes. Position control is a form of risk management; pausing for a second before clicking a link is also risk control. Anyway, I just want to stay alive; there are plenty of opportunities.
