I almost sent myself off 😅—copied the wallet address to the clipboard, but my finger slipped and I added an extra 0. I checked it three times before transferring and found it was wrong; I was so scared I broke out in a cold sweat. At the end of the day, the more liquidity dries up on-chain, the more likely people are to get flustered and start fumbling. When you panic, you’ll dare to try all kinds of shady moves.

Recently, news about a tax increase in some region came out, and a lot of people around me have started weighing their psychological expectations for deposits and withdrawals. Tighter compliance rules also make everyone more cautious. Anyway, I think that once liquidity dries up, don’t think about trying to bottom-fish. First, confirm you’re still alive and able to trade normally, and that your account hasn’t spawned any weird issues. Living through it matters most—everything else can be talked about later.
