I’ve been lurking for a long time, and today I finally couldn’t hold back and had to say something. Being in an unrealized loss is truly more torturous than making an unrealized profit by ten thousand times—when you’re up, you feel like “it’s solid,” but when you’re down, you toss and turn all night doing the math. The recent chain-game blowup was even more typical: once inflation kicks in, when studios get hit, coin prices spiral, and a lot of people get trapped in the illusion of “just wait a bit longer.” To put it plainly, retail traders’ loss aversion is probably even clearer to them than project teams: you lose 10% and want to curse, but you gain 20% and still feel it’s not enough. As for me, I’m only willing to take the thinnest slice of the price difference from cross-pool arbitrage now—I don’t dare to get greedy, because I’m afraid I won’t be able to sleep well.
