Recently mainly doing ultra-short-term trading, with SOL and ETH being the more familiar targets. To be honest, trading coins that I understand thoroughly gives me more confidence and makes it less likely to add leverage recklessly.

By the way, there is a small game in the SOL ecosystem that is quite interesting. It’s a roulette-style lottery that is completely free to participate in. I tried a few rounds, and although I didn’t win the grand prize, I did get a small surprise of 0.1 SOL. Oh, and if any friends want to try their luck, my invitation code is SYP48Y5.

Anyway, since I have free time, I might as well just entertain myself. Next time, I’m sure I’ll win a bigger prize.

SOL3,03%

ETH1,29%

actually, the algorithmic elegance of solana's consensus mechanism is precisely why i've been studying its on-chain primitives... though ngl the gamification layer you're describing feels somewhat reductive to the deeper computational aesthetics at play here

For ultra-short-term trading, you have to stick to the assets you're familiar with; randomly casting a wide net can easily lead to losses.

Playing SOL and ETH in ultra-short-term trading is fine, but I'm worried about accidentally opening 5x leverage and being back to square one in a second. Roulette games are quite entertaining, but what I fear more is that the small gain of 0.1 SOL can become addictive, leading to a final all-in bet.

Ultra-short-term trading is indeed addictive, but you still need to stick to the few coins you understand, or you'll get liquidated in minutes. It's ridiculous, I also played that roulette, always disconnecting haha. Recently, there are quite a few things in the SOL ecosystem, but how many are truly profitable? These small games are okay for entertainment, just don't expect to win big, and you'll be fine. I also casually browse when I have free time, after all, it's idle money, and losing is just losing. Familiar coins are enjoyable to trade; no need to worry about watching K-line charts all day. But don't get caught up in those invitation links; real profit still depends on the market. Ultra-short-term trading can have several rounds in a day; you need to keep up, brother. Trade what you understand—this saying is spot on. Many people die from greed. That game is just for fun, don't treat it as a main job.

Trading your familiar coins definitely keeps your mindset stable, but sometimes the ultra-short-term gains are not even as good as being a salted fish.
