Just saw news about a certain area raising taxes. To be honest, it definitely affects people’s expectations around deposits and withdrawals, but anyway, as a small retail trader, I don’t have any big capital flowing in or out—I’m all about taking my time and doing things carefully.
Recently, PFPs and membership cards have been getting pumped pretty hard. Honestly, I also hold a few project NFTs. Back then, I was aiming for all kinds of benefits and airdrop boosts. But with the current market, it feels like many projects are just printing images to raise money—what about their real long-term value? It’s either they can keep sharing profits with you, or they can truly act as a brand access pass. There are just too many projects that harvest attention in the short term and then run. In my own spreadsheets, I’ve already blacklisted several.
It’s kind of contradictory, too. Earlier this year, I chased some big projects’ memberships—thankfully, I didn’t buy at the top, and now I can’t even sell my listings. But some established blue chips still give you a bit of small perks every month; I’d rather keep those. Whatever—I'll keep doing interactions and updating my spreadsheets. What’s meant to come will come. Compliance issues affect mindset, not results. Someone still has to remind themselves not to get carried away—that’s me. I’m the one who keeps my own accounts.
