I really can’t hold spot. When it rises a little, I just want to cash out—then I look back and it’s already flown away. Futures are even more ridiculous: they say “keep a light position,” but one shaky move and I end up adding until I hit liquidation… To put it simply, position management is just one plain rule: the money you can sleep soundly with is your position; anything that keeps you up is gambling.
Recently, the airdrop season has been feeling like clocking in for work, and the task platform even has anti-bot/anti-abuse protection—those point missions and voucher rolls have me overwhelmed. I thought I was here to harvest free rewards, but somehow I’ve turned into a KPI tool. Now I force myself to do this: split my spot into a few parts and buy slowly; with futures, treat them as nothing more than a lottery ticket. If I lose, I accept it—don’t stubbornly hold on. Anyway, the interaction records in my wallet are already embarrassing enough.
