I spent the whole night on testnet, and suddenly I want to ask myself a question: when did “practice” start to become a kind of “expectation”?

Last year, when I was farming points, it was just for fun—once I was familiar with the process, I’d snag a few airdrops along the way. But now? There are “testnet points” tasks all over the place, and there isn’t even a glimpse of anything going live. Already, people are starting to study how to stake, how to interact, and how to maximize points. Words like modularity and DA-layer make developers happy, while users are completely confused. In the end, everyone still has to see whether they can swap it for u, right?

Basically, it’s pretty similar to expectations management. If you treat it as practice, the stop-loss is the opportunity cost of your time: if it’s not worth it, just stop. If you truly treat it as an expectation, you need to figure out where your stop-loss line is: how much time am I willing to spend at most? Maybe not even a cent—so should I still keep farming? Anyway, it’s my own choice. Just don’t have your mindset collapse first when the airdrop doesn’t come. Forget it—let’s call it a day.
