I’ve found that unrealized losses are really louder than unrealized gains—so much so that they keep me from sleeping… Even though my position isn’t big, the moment the account turns red I start fantasizing: “Should I cut?” “Will it drop again with another spike?” The more I think, the more awake I get. When there’s unrealized profit, though, I’m actually more likely to get carried away—mentally I just assume, “This is what I deserve,” and then, as if I’m staying calm, I can even take a moment to check other on-chain data. In plain terms, loss aversion is just too real.

What’s going on in the group lately about privacy coins/mixers and the compliance boundary is pretty similar: people aren’t that they don’t see the risks—they just don’t want to admit that “maybe they’ll lose some kind of freedom/opportunity,” so emotions run higher. For myself, I’ve set it in stone: where my liquidation line is, and the maximum amount I can afford to lose. If I can accept it, then hold it—if I can’t, then cut a bit… Less chart-watching; even if Gas is expensive, don’t keep making impulsive “handsy” trades. That’s it for now.
