Lately, another batch of airdrop tasks keeps popping up, and I’m tempted to tap in and try a couple—but honestly, I’m most afraid of two things: getting “anti-scammed” by the project (you do a bunch of interactions, and in the end they say you’re not “real” enough), and letting my own FOMO get the best of me and handing over all the permissions. These days, I usually only pick the protocols I can understand, use a small account with small amounts, and go step by step. If I can revoke permissions in one go, I do. For cross-chain and signature-related stuff I don’t get, I just leave it for now… I’d rather miss out than wake up to find my wallet completely emptied.
AI agents, automated trading—those stories are also pretty hot, but the more “fully automated” they sound, the more cautious I get. It feels like half the people are just telling a story, and the other half are obsessing over security details. Anyway, I care more about the process: whether the on-chain data keeps growing steadily, and whether the interactions feel natural—not how cool the white paper sounds. That’s it for now—I’m going to get to work.
