I’m done for. Last night I couldn’t sleep, so I went through a round of on-chain wallets and found that I’ve spread my assets across seven or eight different chains, like I’d just thrown pepper everywhere. Some addresses I don’t even remember why I deposited to them in the first place—just to farm an air drop or test a cross-chain bridge. What makes it worse is that when the market quiets down, the phishing links actually get especially many, like during peak spam. If you accidentally click an approve authorization while you’re not paying attention, you could send your savings away in a single slip—years of your holdings.



Honestly, if you don’t treat your assets seriously, your assets won’t treat you seriously either. My solution is very crude, but it works: set a “mainnet settlement day.” Only do one or two on-chain actions each month; in the meantime, keep all assets in a hardware wallet or in addresses with no active signing. Fragmentation isn’t scary—the scary part is thinking you need to tidy it up every day. The more you organize, the messier it gets, and it’s easy to make mistakes. What you need to be reminded of is this—control your hand and don’t click any links when you’re carried away by emotions.

Anyway, for me, I set an alarm every month. On that day I do one unified on-chain cleanup; at other times I only look and don’t move anything. You can try it too—don’t just blame yourself for being messy. First, give your assets a designated “home.”
