Recently, I’ve been a bit obsessed with earning testnet points. It started as practice, but gradually turned into the expectation of “Should I be getting something out of this?” Honestly, once that expectation appears, people start irrationally increasing their positions, time, and effort. My stop-loss is pretty rough now: I only spend a fixed half-hour each day, and if I go over that, I stop; also, if I start randomly authorizing or installing plugins just to farm points, I delete and stop touching them immediately—security is more important than points.

Lately, everyone’s been talking about staking unlocks, unlock calendars, and the anxiety over sell pressure is everywhere. I remind myself instead: testnets are more like emotional amplifiers; don’t treat “possible airdrops” as your paycheck. Next time, I plan to clearly define my goal: whether it’s learning a new chain/new tools or just farming points, then allocate my time accordingly. How do you usually set stop-loss limits for “practice tasks”?
