Let me tell you something: lately when I’ve been watching on-chain interactions, it just feels like the time value in options is being “harvested” in the same way as Gas—one round after another. The buyer is betting on direction, but after each volatility move, the time value quietly gets absorbed by the seller. Anyway, I really buy into this—like watching block-building cadence: during peak times Gas is absurdly expensive, but the real money is made by miners, not ordinary traders.
I just followed an account that keeps promoting AI Agent automated trading, and they talk about it in mind-boggling ways—but the on-chain data shows the strategy’s Gas consumption is more outrageous than the returns. After I unfollowed, I actually felt a lot calmer. Bottom line—what matters more, safety or narratives? For me right now, I’m leaning toward being strict about security, because there aren’t that many free lunches on-chain.
That’s it for now—I can’t be bothered to go into more detail.
