I find that unrealized losses are actually more tormenting than unrealized gains… When I make money, I think “Hmm, not bad,” but when I lose money, my mind automatically magnifies it into “Am I being stupid?” A quick glance before bed triggers overthinking, the more I think, the more I want to cut my losses or just sell everything, anyway I can't accept it. Honestly, losing money feels like being watched and reminded that you did something wrong, even if it’s just on paper.



Recently, cross-chain bridges have had issues again, and oracles occasionally have abnormal quotes, with a bunch of “wait for confirmation” in the group chat. I also subconsciously hold back: not because I’m afraid of earning less, but because I’m worried about stepping into a trap and having to stay up late watching rollbacks and announcements.

What I fear most isn’t actually missing an opportunity, but the moment I get emotionally carried away and still pretend to be rational.
