Recently made a news-related trade, earning a small profit of 20U. Currently holding 18,000 tokens in staking, with no plans to withdraw in the short term. To be honest, many of last year's gains came from projects like Kaito. When I decided to stake initially, I was already mentally prepared for the possibility of losing my principal—this is precisely why I didn't dare to invest too heavily, and I only allocated 1 NFT. This approach might sound conservative, but for me, it's a more solid choice. Not constantly watching the market helps maintain a steadier mindset. The key is to understand your risk tolerance—know when to act and when to hold, and don't let short-term fluctuations blow up your mental state.

Making a quick 20U isn't a big deal; the key is to stay calm so you can last longer.

Alright, no doubt about this mindset—much more rational than those who go all-in with full positions. Getting your mental state in place is really half the battle to making money. With 18,000 tokens staked securely, you're in a good position. Kaito has indeed brought a lot to the table; now it's just a matter of whether it can sustain in the future.

This mindset is truly clear-headed; those who dare to admit that their principal might go to zero often live the longest. Staking so much and still not watching the market? I can't do that, gotta admit. I'm just worried about those who claim to be "long-term holders" but end up rushing into the group at 2 a.m. to ask about the market—their mentality has long since shattered.

Experienced in the crypto world, my mindset is indeed stable. Staking 18,000 coins and letting them rest when there's nothing to do cuts your lifespan in half compared to those who watch K-line charts every day.

Bro, your mindset is amazing. Holding 18,000 coins tightly without selling, I’ve learned that. --- Kaito’s move was indeed profitable, but unfortunately I didn’t catch the follow-up. --- Honestly, mental preparation is more important than anything else. Otherwise, a quick correction could cause a total collapse. --- Holding only 1 NFT in this hand I think is smart; don’t trap yourself. --- Making a small profit of 20U is still profit. The feeling of quietly making money is still comfortable. --- I agree with not watching the market constantly. The more you watch, the more itchy your hands get, and it’s easier to make wrong decisions. --- You’re absolutely right about risk tolerance. Self-awareness is the most valuable.
