Just now, I got the itch to chase again. The moment I clicked on the candlestick chart, I was actually already making excuses for myself... I would pause for two minutes first, asking myself: Did I get some new information, or am I just seeing everyone having fun and afraid of missing out? Honestly, when emotions push me into a position, my brain automatically mutes the risk.
Recently, the social mining and fan token schemes of "attention equals mining" have been quite noisy. It looks lively, but I always feel it’s more like packaging emotions into output, getting more and more addictive the more I scroll. Anyway, my current approach is: if I want to chase, I first check on-chain to see if the actual transactions are catching up. When liquidity in NFTs cools down, the hype drops quickly like petals falling.
A bit depressing is that I often get carried away myself; but luckily, at least I’ve started to distinguish whether the information is speaking or if emotions are pushing me to place an order. That’s all for now.
