Just got jolted awake by a grid-traffic notification. I checked my position—hey, I’ve taken another bite of the chop. 😅

Honestly, grid trading and DCA are a better fit for someone like me than going all-in. Going all-in either means trembling at the candlesticks in the middle of the night, or waking up to have your mind “massaged” the moment you get liquidated straight away—anyway, my heart can’t take it. With grid trading, as long as the range isn’t too ridiculous, in a choppy market it automatically buys low and sells high. You make money slowly, but at least you can sleep soundly through the night.

Recently, during the airdrop season, that round of tasks on a points-based platform went anti-bot. The points system made the “free-money” crowd behave like office workers—I was even getting a painful secondhand ache just watching them grind. But then again, whether the growth of these points protocols is driven by real users or by bots depends on retention data. With TVL swinging up and down, I’ve actually started focusing on daily active users and trading frequency instead.

Anyway, I’m pessimistic in what I say—but secretly I’m adding to my grid position. For now, that’s it. Keep sleeping.
