Last night, I was up past two again, and my eyes started to feel sore. Suddenly, the thought of year-end tax matters made my scalp tingle... To be honest, don’t wait until you need to file to check your transaction history; you’ll really go crazy. I’m pretty simple-minded now: every time I make a large swap/bridge/airdrop-related transaction, I just take a screenshot + jot down a note (what it’s for, my rough thoughts at the time), and put it in the same folder. Even if it looks stupid, it’s better than reconciling later.

And recently, since everyone’s been complaining about the lagging on-chain data tools, tagging systems, and the risk of being misled, I don’t fully trust automatic categorization either. I’d rather write a few more words myself. A few days ago, I almost impulsively uninstalled a certain trading app because I felt more and more anxious the more I looked at it... But then I thought, uninstalling would just scatter my records even more, so I held back. Let’s just keep it like this for now.
