Recently, social mining and point-earning have become so obsessive that it feels like I’m wasting my whole day just for a “status/badge.” Honestly, badges don’t shield you from drawdowns, and points don’t help you cut losses. In the end, it’s just staying up late and getting emotionally worked up, like the guilt after a liquidation.

Now, funding rates are reaching extremes, and in the group, people are arguing whether to reverse or keep squeezing the bubble. I think many aren’t really judging the market; they’re just afraid of missing out on the “next wave of points.” Don’t outsource your focus to the project team’s task list—ask yourself first: am I earning risk premium, or am I just trading time for anxiety?

I set a simple rule for myself: don’t spend more than 30 minutes a day on tasks. If I go over, it means I’ve already gotten too caught up today, so I’ll just turn it off. That’s it for now. I’ll finish my trading records and then go to sleep.
