Lately, airdrop interactions have really made me both greedy and annoyed: afraid of missing out if I don’t do it, but if I do, it feels like giving the project free risk control/liquidity, and in the end, I have to swallow the retribution myself. My simple method is to first check if the funds in the pool are “alive”: if the lending pool interest rate suddenly fluctuates or collateral assets shake, it’s easy to trigger a liquidation cascade, and I’d rather not touch those; then I break down the interactions into small steps, don’t feed the entire quota at once, leave some room, so at least if I get caught, I won’t lose my mind.

Recently, everyone’s been talking about rate cut expectations, the US dollar index, and risk assets bouncing around… Basically, when macro conditions change, those “lively” on-chain activities also cool down. Last night, I even had a moment where I wanted to leave a few groups and uninstall my wallet plugin, to avoid staring at the task list every day. But then I thought, uninstalling doesn’t solve FOMO; I can only set rules for myself: any interaction where I haven’t clearly calculated the costs (time + gas + attention) is considered nonexistent. Anyway, if I miss it, I miss it—at least I won’t learn to stay calm only after being rekt.
