I recently realized that what I am most easily exploited by is not technology, but attention.
When a hot topic changes, and the timeline starts arguing, I get itchy.
Clearly I haven't looked carefully at the transactions or saved the addresses, yet I get pushed in by "everyone is playing,"
and in the end, I still lose quite steadily... To put it simply, I first check whether there is real turnover on the chain,
whether old addresses are flowing back, and if not, I treat it as stage lighting.
The same goes for AI Agents and automated trading; the narrative is hyped up,
once on-chain interaction permissions are enabled, it starts "helping you optimize,"
but the result is either granting authorization to a bunch of strange contracts or signing without even looking.
People who are cautious about security tend to stay quiet:
the fewer permissions given, the better; wallet isolation, limit the amount, and if unsure, just watch.
My current clumsy method: wait 24 hours first,
if the hype is still there and the data remains, then consider;
if the hype is gone, just save on transaction fees.
Forget it, I won't talk about it anymore, lest I get convinced again.
