Just saw a few “whale” moves on-chain, and the comment section is starting to call for copy-trading again… I’m honestly a bit on reflex now: don’t rush to copy the trades—figure out whether they’re building a position, or whether they opened a hedging short (a counter position) somewhere else. A lot of the time, what you see is one leg; their other leg is on a CEX or in options, and the net exposure isn’t what you think. If you follow in, you end up getting exposed.



It also made me think of those recent social mining and fan token schemes, where they claim it’s “attention mining”… it sounds lively, but when attention is too good, people can guide it into a “setup,” and in the end it turns into whoever has the loudest voice mining the most. Anyway, I still stick to my old habits: clear authorizations on a regular basis, read signatures word for word, and if I do follow, I only follow the logic—not the emotions. For now, that’s it.
