Just reorganized my wallet, and there’s yet another pile of new chains and new addresses… honestly, once there are more L1s/L2s, I can’t even keep track of all the seed phrases anymore. People say it’s convenient, but it really isn’t; but if it’s inconvenient, you also don’t dare to just merge everything. Plainly put, it’s because you don’t want to put all your eggs in one basket.
Today, someone in the group shared another new L2 with incentives, and the long-time users are over there complaining about “mine-to-sell,” while they just smile and don’t say much. Anyway, I’m getting more and more numb to this kind of campaign—if you go check its TVL and real trading volume, compare them, and you’ll know for yourself how long the rewards can last.
My approach is pretty simple now: keep the main active assets on one chain on-chain, and use smaller amounts to spread out for testing and interaction. I’m too lazy to keep switching back and forth every day. I’ve also lowered my expectations, and that actually reduces anxiety. For now, that’s it.
In short, with a wallet, the problem isn’t that the tool isn’t usable—the real question is whether your assets are truly liquid or just pretending to be. Before you fumble around chasing the latest hotspots, think first about where your exit path is.
