Last night I saw someone saying that some testnet points were about to become valuable, and my hand twitched—I almost connected my mainnet wallet to claim the airdrop. Luckily, my laziness kicked in first, so I opened a virtual machine to test the process again—only to find that the "official" domain couldn't be resolved at all, and someone in the group had already posted a screenshot of their wallet being drained.

A close call. Not because I was afraid of losing money, but because of that thought: "I've practiced this long, I deserve some reward," which switches my brain to autopilot. The on-chain tagging system is the same—seeing an address labeled as "smart money" and blindly following it, only to realize later that the whale had already switched wallets, the label was half a week behind, and I was just chasing my own illusion.

Now I set a hard rule for myself when using testnets: as soon as the expected profit exceeds the "practice" mental account, I stop for two days. After all, I don't know if those points will ever be worth anything, but losing my wallet is real. That's it for now.
