I just took a look through the wallet again and then checked the proposal—sure enough, it feels a bit satisfying and a bit complicated. Recently the funding rate has been running at an extremely outrageous level. In the group, people were shouting “reversal” while also hesitating about whether to keep squeezing the bubble. Personally, I think at times like this, watching the “water level” in DAO voting is more real—what’s hidden in the proposals isn’t only the interest rate, which pool, or so on, but also those little mind games where big-position and small-holder accounts go up against themselves.
I actually have a lot of respect for the whales who can vote the key ball every time, but every step they take—the chips they hold and the timing they run in the background—has definitely been calculated. I also know most quiet small-position holders flip through a proposal and just want to “vote yes and be done with it.” So look at the record I wrote—voting isn’t just about taking a stance; it’s about seeing who has the power to sense, more sharply, the small and petty details that matter to everyone. This kind of thing relaxes me: I’m not planning to grind harder, and being able to take part is a kind of everyday life feeling. Maybe I’m just too mellow, but honestly, the “visible hands and invisible little tricks” behind the proposals are more fun than price swings and upticks or downturns. Forget it, that’s it.
