Lately, I've been seeing everyone running tasks during the airdrop season, passing the anti-witch test, and competing as if they're clocking in for work.

I'm actually more concerned about the "seems very stable" stuff in stablecoins.
To put it plainly, de-pegging often isn't because there's really less money in the account, but because during the panic moment, everyone stops believing:
The less transparent you are, the easier it is to be fueled by emotions.
No matter how fancy the reserve report is written, if the redemption channels are blocked or on-chain deposits and withdrawals slow down, panic will run on its own.
My habit is still old-fashioned: I prefer to diversify across several platforms, keep some cash for flexibility, rather than treat "1:1" as a faith.
(Voiceover: Don't ask me why I'm so cautious, I saw the explosion point last time.)
