Today, the moment my phone lit up, there were a bunch of red dots everywhere—people keep @ing back and forth in the group, KOL pushes keep popping up with notification windows... Honestly, it’s like my hands are almost faster than my brain. Everyone’s shouting, “Unlock is coming,” “Staking unlock selling pressure.” The unlock calendar gets flipped through and screenshotted over and over, making it feel like if you don’t run tomorrow, everything will reset to zero.

But if you think it through calmly, no one can do the impulsive buying for you. Group chat messages are at most a noise amplifier, KOLs are at most an emotion accelerator—the real moment you decide to hit the buy button is still up to you. Anyway, I use a dumb-but-effective method right now: when I see trending terms, I first turn off notifications, then I go to the blockchain/announcements to confirm the unlock amounts and timing. Only after that do I decide whether to act. Otherwise, it’s truly being led around by the red dots. The upside of social anxiety is I speak less and act less impulsively.
