Lately, I've been really exhausted by the constant "attention" game, with hot topics coming one after another. It feels like I'm chasing a bus, just to get on and then it reaches the station and the doors pinch me... Honestly, being repeatedly cut off isn't usually due to lack of skill, but because my eyes are only focused on that small piece of trending searches.
Now I prefer to first observe who is moving quietly: suddenly a niche pool gets some liquidity injected, low-profile addresses are gradually reallocating their positions, transactions aren't large but the slippage is outrageous. When the hot topics are trending, I tend to slow down instead, willing to miss out rather than be the last to make a move.
Just like these past couple of days, before and after the mainstream public chain upgrade/maintenance, everyone was guessing whether the ecosystem would migrate. My first reaction wasn't to chase the "migration concept," but to watch whether cross-chain bridges and a few old project treasury addresses had moved in advance... If I had paid less attention to the KOLs' sentiment charts and looked more at the silent hands on the chain, I might not have been bouncing back and forth in the rotation, paying tuition along the way. Anyway, I can't guarantee I'm right, but at least my mindset is more stable.
