These days, I’ve been overwhelmed by group messages again, with KOLs also flooding the chat. Honestly, when information overload happens, the human brain automatically looks for the “easiest button” to press: either follow the group’s emotions or use the conclusion of a familiar face as navigation. I used to blame KOLs for setting the rhythm, but looking back at on-chain data, it’s more like a reminder: in the same wave of price increase, the most impulsive traders to place orders are often not those who listen to “who,” but those who don’t have time to go through the probabilities themselves—especially when seeing others share their gains, and your own hands get itchy. Risk control and plans feel like they’re suddenly offline.

Recently, whenever a cross-chain bridge gets hacked, the group immediately turns into “don’t move, wait for confirmation,” and oracles occasionally report outrageous prices. Everyone collectively pretends to be the most rational person… but when the market actually moves, confirmation is quickly forgotten. My approach is pretty simple: if a single sentence makes me want to buy, I force myself to check the on-chain fund flows and whether the trading volume is increasing. If I don’t see it, I just pretend it’s not there. Ultimately, I’m the one who bears the responsibility for impulsive buying.

That’s all for now.
