Multi-chain wallet stuff, I really both love and hate it... At first, I thought "opening multiple addresses is safer," but then assets got fragmented like pixels, everywhere: a little on the mainnet, a little on L2, and then a couple of test ones I forgot to close. In the end, I just wanted to add some funds and spent 10 minutes trying to find where my coins were.



My current somewhat old-fashioned approach: keep only three commonly used wallets, each for a different purpose (main storage / trading / interaction). Gather everything else into those, and if I can't, just treat it like "loose change stuck in the sofa cushion"—don't keep obsessing over it. Every week, I casually note down one line: what else is on which chain, roughly how much, enough. Otherwise, the more I keep track, the more anxious I get.

Also, recently those on-chain data tools and label systems have been criticized for being outdated or misleading, and I kind of resonate with that... So I don't really believe in "labels that instantly define things." It's more reliable to look at my transfer paths and authorization records. Anyway, I don't need to be understood; I just need my positions not to mess me up.
