To be honest, the recent airdrop season and the points-based system have been pretty lively. But once you look at the anti-sybil rules on those task platforms, it feels like the airdrop hunters are almost turning into office workers—staring at points every day is more exhausting than watching the K-line charts. I personally think that things like PFPs and memberships, at their core, still come down to whether the brand can survive. You can make a quick profit from short-term hype, but for long-term value, what matters is whether the team is truly doing things—don’t just rely on empty promises and airdrops.
I’ve set up several trading alerts before, like the trigger price for a project’s limit order. Once it’s set, my mind feels at ease. After all, if you just leave it hanging, there’s no need to keep spamming the screen. Either it gets automatically filled, or you forget about it—ironically, that leads to fewer impulsive trades than constantly chasing the charts. This feeling is pretty similar to practicing: set some rules first, then let time handle the rest, and it’s much more worry-free.
