It's not that I'm afraid of losing my reputation, but suddenly feeling a bit out of the scene while I'm here grinding points every day. Am I really putting in effort for the agreement, or just playing along with the system to see who can do it faster? If you also take a look at the leaderboard and then come back to read this, you might feel it's more accurate.
Recently, I've been checking the rankings often, and the more I look, the stranger this score seems. The leaderboard is progressing a bit too smoothly; as long as you keep going, your score will steadily rise. However, I can't help but think that the score is rising faster than the actual work done. In the end, everyone is just rushing for speed, and who cares whether it's worth it or not?
XP, AP, and MP are like three measuring sticks to me. XP shows whether you're willing to spend money and endure time; AP indicates whether you've actually engaged with the product, managed positions, and experienced losses; MP reflects whether you can explain complex things in a way that makes others want to chat. Putting all three together actually measures how deep your risk tolerance is, which aligns quite well with the kind of order that TermMax wants to establish.

While writing today, I came across the AI signal collaboration announcement from @TermMaxFi and @BellaProtocol . I didn't click the link, but my mind immediately jumped to what if the signal fails, and the market crashes, what is the first thing to do? It's not taking profits, it's liquidation. And the most painful part of liquidation is not how much you lose, but who gets the money first.

I was so absorbed in the document that I got a headache. The more I looked, the less I could sit still. TermMax's liquidation is not about randomly selling collateral; the first thing it does is super honest—funds are divided into three layers. The first layer prioritizes repaying FT lenders, trying to return principal and agreed returns; the second layer collects a 10% penalty, half goes to the liquidator, and half goes into the protocol's reserve to prevent future issues; the third layer is for the remaining borrowers. This order is set in stone, and no one can overtake it.

Last night I sent the King’s Gambit registration link to a chess friend, and after sending it, I chuckled to myself. This guy didn't mention wallets or chains at all, just threw back a line: "If I play a bit better, can it really be worth more money?"
I was stunned at that moment, my heart almost skipped a beat. This question was too intense, too piercing, directly pricking the little knots I had been holding in my heart these days—what we really want is for skills to be seriously priced in this game.
What you guys are doing this week, I see it very clearly—registering casually on mobile, pulling friends to play together, playing chess for free, smashing the threshold down hard. It's not about forcing people into the crypto space, but rather bringing along those who love chess—friends, family, colleagues—into a game that they can understand at a glance.

I just came across a discussion about AI safety that really made me stop and read it several times. It's not the old problem of models crashing directly, but rather something more insidious where everything seems fine, the demo runs smoothly, and it's stable online, and then one day it quietly deviates just a little bit, and you can't pinpoint when it started being contaminated. This is what makes Data Poisoning truly frightening.
Recently, Inference Labs has been emphasizing drift. I used to skip over this term until I came across their TruthTensor content and finally woke up. The same prompt, the same data, looks perfectly normal in the short term, but once you stretch the time frame, the model's behavior slowly distorts. It's not that the parameters are broken, but that the world itself is changing, and the model changes along with it. You are evaluating yesterday's model, but once it's online, it faces today's world, with risks lurking in tomorrow.

The market hasn't been hot these past two days,
But one topic has exploded fiercely.
It's not about rising or falling.
Is it——1.5× multiplier, is it an incentive or filtering people?
I carefully looked through the discussions and also re-examined this round of TermMax
Alpha Trading Volume Multiplier.
It feels very straightforward, unlike teaching you how to earn a bit more,
It's more like asking you whether you are really trading seriously.
The crypto world often self-mocks with a saying:
If one day it doesn't work out, there are still three guaranteed paths.
Hitching rides, delivering food, working as a security guard.
It sounds easy, but once you really understand, there is not a single way out.

These past few days, a scene has been floating in my mind.
A household robot that comes with a pillow from the factory.

Very gentle, very considerate.

But I suddenly feel that what really decides whether it can enter your life is not the pillow.
It's when it makes decisions for you, do you have the right to ask, what did you just do that for?

So when I see that sentence again: As agents start touching money, logistics and infrastructure, “trust me” stops working.

For the first time, I didn't treat it as a slogan.
Rather, it serves as a very realistic warning.

It's not that people become bad, but once the system is unverifiable, it is destined not to be entrusted.

This week, I felt the presence of beings for the first time in Anichess.
It's not that the anxiety has decreased, but that the gaze has suddenly become distant.
I started to see the rhythms of different players. Some shine brightly but quickly fade; others are unassuming yet progress steadily.
In this game of Anichess, what has truly been magnified is not the flash of inspiration, but the ability to stand on the board over time.
I began to ask myself a very small yet very heavy question
If you don't look at the popularity,
Not looking at the volume of discussions,
just look at the board itself.
I am in Anichess,
What exactly are we accumulating?

It's not my Buddha.
After using the chain for a long time, I really start to worry.
What is there to be afraid of?
Worried that the project is too urgent.
Anxious to go live,
Anxious to latch onto the narrative,
Anxious to prove that we can do it too.
To be honest, I've seen too many projects,
It's not dying in a bear market, but dying because we want everything.
1. Many projects don't fail due to inability, but because of greed.
This one needs to be taken,
That one can't be missed either.
Today is this direction,
Tomorrow will change to another way of saying it.
The final result is often very unified:
Users are confused,
The team is also very tired.
2. Plasma made me a bit alert instead.
It's not that it does a lot,
but sometimes it chooses not to appear.

Just now I scrolled through CreatorPad again, that feeling is too familiar - not awkward, but not particularly lively, yet the scores seem to ignore me.
At first, I doubted whether the system had a bug, but then I paused to think and suddenly understood that it might not be that my writing is poor, but rather that the scoring rules have quietly changed. Some changes won't be loudly announced; they simply take away the old rules, while you are still struggling in the same place.
1. The points you see now are not about how complete your writing is, but whether anyone is willing to stay and chat.
In this adjustment of CreatorPad's weighting, everyone remembers that interaction is more important, but I think what it truly filters out is the kind of content that is well-written, where after reading, others just want to like and leave. It's not because the writing is poor, but because it doesn't leave space for participation. The current points are really asking: Did you pull the readers into the same scene, making them unable to resist adding a comment, asking a question, or even rebutting? It no longer simply rewards liveliness but rewards genuine dialogue.

Dimensionality Reduction After 35.
After 35, you learn a quiet truth:
life isn’t a straight line where effort always converts into safety.
It’s a system that changes its rules without telling you.

You think you’re competing on skill.
Often, you’re competing on cost.

You think you’re chasing a higher salary.
Sometimes, you’re fighting not to be replaced.

“35+ not hiring” isn’t always about you getting worse.
It’s the market favoring cheaper, more obedient, more disposable parts.

The midlife crisis isn’t just money.
It’s the moment you realize you’re being softly audited.

So many people respond by pushing harder:
more hours, more compliance, less sleep, more anxiety.
But that’s like accelerating in mud.
The faster you move, the deeper you sink.

Because the core problem of midlife is rarely “not strong enough.”
It’s this:you’re still treating yourself like a tool,
not a human with boundaries.

A philosophical question hits differently at 35:Who are you?

Your job title?
Or your breathing body?
Your LinkedIn story?
Or the version of you awake at 3 a.m.?

When “being needed” becomes your identity, you’ll be drained.
When “being approved” becomes your meaning, you’ll be controlled.

Midlife doesn’t punish you for losing to others.
It punishes you for believing the illusion:
“If I endure more, hustle more, prove more… I’ll finally feel safe.”

But safety is not a trophy.
Safety is a structure.

Real “dimensionality reduction” isn’t only moving to a smaller city.
It’s not just switching jobs, industries, or chasing the next trend.

It’s extracting your life from external scoring systems
and rebuilding an internal order that answers to you:

-Health becomes the foundation, not a sacrifice
-Work becomes a tool, not an identity
-Social life becomes a choice, not a duty
-Desire becomes experience, not proof
-The future becomes a plan you can تحمل, not a gamble

Midlife doesn’t need motivation quotes.
It needs the courage to cut losses.

You don’t have to win every battlefield.
You only need to protect three assets:
your body, your time, your attention.

Once these are defended, everything else re-aligns.

People think freedom is money.
Midlife teaches something sharper:Freedom is not handing yourself to things that don’t deserve you.

When you stop over-explaining, over-pleasing, over-holding it together,
a rare silence returns.

Not “giving up.”

Coming back.

In a world that increasingly treats humans as resources,
the highest luxury isn’t looking successful.

It’s being whole.

In the past two days, Binance Square has been flooded with "Custom Gas" and "Paymaster."
Smoothness is indeed smooth; my fingers got heated from scrolling.
There was even a moment when I almost wrote a post praising its popularity.
But I still paused for a moment.

Because smoothness solves how to use it today,
and the market will eventually ask a colder question:
"Where will tomorrow's chips come from?"
1. Project Information
The project is Plasma (@plasma),
The token is $XPL.
What I flipped through was not second-hand images, but the Tokenomics page on the official website.
That page is very straightforward: the lock-up period for US buyers is until 2026-07-28.

That day when X updated the API, I didn't curse at anyone.
I just stared at my phone for a while.
It's not anger, nor is it shock.
It's the kind of feeling that you knew would come sooner or later, but when it really comes, your heart still sinks.
It's like you rely on takeout every day,
and suddenly discover that your bank card is frozen.
It's not starving to death.
But rather being unemployed.
Let me first say something undignified.
I have eaten food from the mouth.
And I ate for quite a while.
When 2025 just started, I still had project promotions and could take on some collaborations.
I could still deceive myself by saying: 'I'm not a water army, I'm a creator.'
