Over the past couple of days, I’ve been getting that itch to chase again—staring at on-chain data like it’s a temperature chart. Even though nothing has really gone up much, my heart rate still climbs first… So I force myself to stop for ten minutes: is it new information that tells me I should add to my position, or is it that group’s “If you don’t buy now, you’ll miss out” emotion that’s driving me forward? Put simply, the information should land on a few points I can verify; emotions only make me want to hit the button.

Recently, the arguments about privacy coins, coin mixing, and the compliance boundaries have been pretty divisive. And I’ve become even more cautious: the bigger the debate, the more the volatility feels like a sudden weather change—whether I bring an umbrella depends entirely on self-control.

By the way, my mom asked me, “Is coin mixing money laundering?” I could only reply with half a sentence: the technology itself is neutral, but its use and regulation really can’t be handled with a one-size-fits-all rule… Anyway, I’ll follow my plan for now—don’t let myself get carried away by my own momentum.
