Recently, someone said "just throw it into the pool and sit back to collect fees," and I immediately thought about withdrawing my order... The AMM curve, to put it simply, is like you’re tugging with the price; whether it goes up or down, it automatically adjusts your position. When the market swings, impermanent loss is like quietly taking the small fees you earned to cover the difference.
To make an analogy, it’s like running a small convenience store: it's convenient, but if the neighboring supermarket suddenly slashes prices, you also have to lower your inventory prices to clear stock—you can't just charge a toll fee.
Now, with social mining and fan tokens, that "attention is mining" approach—it's lively, but once attention disperses, liquidity also scatters, and the people in the pool are first to be educated by the curve.
Anyway, I’m just testing the waters with small positions; if I can’t make a profit, so be it—just wait for the next wave.
