I just scared myself a moment ago. I was copying the address over on the cross-chain bridge and my fingers slipped—I missed two characters. I only noticed it the second before I clicked confirm… my heart rate shot straight up to 200. To be honest, for someone like me who spends every day waiting at the bridge looking for chances, what I’m most afraid of isn’t losing a bit of gas—it’s the day I accidentally send myself right into the middle of a black swan event.

Then I look at that pile of “ratings/credit/activity” on the task platform, and it really feels more and more like punching a clock: interact today, socialize tomorrow, and the day after, “prove you’re not a witch”… I even want to ask whether I’m on-chain or just writing performance reviews. The new L1/L2 get incentives and they immediately pull up TVL—plus it’s also very real that old users complain about mining/loot extraction and selling. Everyone’s scheming against everyone else; no one’s pretending to be innocent. In any case, now if I can avoid doing complicated tasks, I won’t—I’d rather do fewer, even if it means less, than burn myself out turning into a tool for others.
