Recently, there has been constant attention on staking unlocks and token unlock calendars. Basically, people are just afraid of that "selling pressure." I’m also afraid, but I’m more afraid of not admitting mistakes and stubbornly holding on until funding rates/interest gradually wear people out. Stop-loss really is like a breakup; dragging it out only makes you want to prove "I was right from the start" more, and the pain lasts longer.
Not long ago, I saw a project contract with some strange permission settings: proxies that can upgrade, owners who can still change blacklist rules. Reading it made my head spin... I chose to just not understand and not touch it, even if I might miss out. Later, in the group, many people discussed whether to buy during unlocks. I felt relieved: if I didn’t buy, I didn’t break up. That’s pretty good. Anyway, my current principle is: if I lose money, I admit it early according to plan, and don’t argue with myself.
