ETH really makes people love and hate it… Before bed, I saw the price staying around 3400, thinking it was stable. But when I woke up, the account profits had evaporated by over ten thousand.
This market is really like that— the more you try to hold on, the more it slips away like a slippery eel. Sometimes even sleeping becomes a luxury; waking up feels like a different world.
Now, with this level of volatility, honestly, it's really hard to predict. Hesitant when it's time to take profits, hopeful when it’s time to cut losses. The market doesn’t indulge anyone’s emotions.

Hundreds of thousands gone just like that, that's how our industry is. Even sleeping feels like gambling.

nah man, that 3400 level was pure statistical fiction. the moment you thought it was "stable" the market entropy just went full chaos mode lol. fifteen mins of sleep and boom—entire position gets rekt. that's not volatility, that's just MEV disguised as price action tbh.

Me too, my sleep quality has plummeted, afraid of missing the rise and also worried about losses.

Just over a hundred thousand gone like that, I damn sure won't dare to sleep again.

nah man, this is the network consensus at work—market doesn't care about your sleep schedule. been there when 3400 was the floor, watched it crumble overnight. the difficulty adjustment hits different when it's your portfolio taking the heat tbh

Hundreds of thousands gone, this is the gentleness that ETH offers.

Losing hundreds of thousands is truly hardcore. Last time, I was still playing PUBG before bed, and when I woke up, I was wiped out.

The mudskipper analogy is perfect—it's just a vampire, biting and not letting go.

Well said. The moment you hold onto hope is already a loss. The market simply doesn't care about your thoughts.
---
Is 3400 stable? Uh… is this called stability? Haha.
---
Stop-loss is the hardest. Always thinking it can rebound, but the more you hold on, the deeper you get trapped. Now I’ve learned it’s just a bit too late.
---
Every time, I only find out what happened after waking up, feeling like I missed out on a billion.

You really can't sleep too long. Missing the market is minor, missing the stop-loss opportunity is deadly.

Honestly, playing with contracts really doesn't let me sleep. When I wake up, I quickly check my phone. Either a surprise or a shock😄
