Recently, airdrop interactions really feel like browsing a night market for free samples: lots of stalls, long lines, you might not get to try when you approach, and you could also be pitched on cards... I'm now very laid-back, prioritizing those with clear rules, contracts that look normal, and teams that aren't mysterious, using interactions as part of daily routine, not doing those "10+ transactions a day" to boost presence. Honestly, I prefer fewer opportunities than getting caught in a wave of fees + authorization risks from being front-run.
And also, don’t get caught up in that interpretation of “ETF capital flow = must rise/fall tonight,” as if it’s guaranteed. When US stock risk appetite shifts, people just force-fit it onto crypto, which I find quite amusing... My own approach is simple: blue-chip DeFi with low leverage, interacting in batches, wallet isolation, and when FOMO hits, I go grab some late-night snacks, and I usually calm down by the time I come back.
