Recently, going through my trading records has become a headache, and I realized that my frantic behavior at the end of the year wasn't because of profit or loss, but because I completely can't remember "what I was doing at that time"... Now I just do two simple things: every time I deposit, withdraw, exchange, or cross-chain, I take a quick screenshot, then put the transaction hash into a spreadsheet, clearly listing the time, chain, currency, and purpose (liquidity, lending, airdrops, etc.). Honestly, it's not for professionalism, but to keep track of my accounts later.



Especially now with staking, shared security, and yield stacking, I understand the criticism of "copy-pasting": as on-chain actions increase, if your records don't keep up, you can't explain where your cost basis came from during reporting, and in the end, you can only guess... I trust data more, and I don't rely much on intuition—intuition can forget or be beautified, but data at least sits there coldly. For now, that's it, slowly filling in the accounts.
