Recently, I've been reading books and watching some documentaries, then cycling, hiking with a load, and exercising. The things left behind by the bull market are being compensated by the monkey market. I haven't paid much attention to the company or the market, but everything is running well. A few days ago, I watched an interview with my favorite musician, Ryuichi Sakamoto.

When he talked about the life he yearns for: I somewhat long for the life of a hermit. Living in a dilapidated temple, living in poverty, indifferent to clothing, enjoying drinking, he is like a Taoist priest in a martial arts movie. He has experienced a harsh life, maintaining a firm will, striving to reach the ultimate realm.

Those who have experienced prosperity, from being a novice to reaching the peak and then returning to simplicity, may generally appreciate the life that Ryuichi Sakamoto yearns for—calm, carefree, and indifferent.

Considering the recent market fluctuations, the discussions in the Chinese region of public opinion monitoring are surprisingly not about the market warming up or the end of tariffs. Instead, it’s filled with various negative comments. I noticed my good brother, Yin @xiejiayinBitget, is basically online 24 hours handling various issues. Brother Jason @jasonchen998 is also being troubled by haters. Ni Da @PhyrexNi is also constantly being bothered. These are all friends I've communicated and interacted with offline multiple times. Their selfless sharing and service, providing valuable information, make them high-quality bloggers in selfless dedication. Investment is an extremely personal matter; even if you buy a Bloomberg terminal costing over $30,000 a year, it doesn’t guarantee you will make money. All market perspectives and investment logic that can be shared are actually just one viewpoint. No one is perfect; listening, watching, and learning from multiple perspectives is always beneficial. However, when it comes to making investment decisions, it is a private act that culminates after gathering information and data. Buying and selling only requires a click of the mouse, but the investment analysis before the transaction may take a week or even a month to study. I am very grateful for the information and perspectives they provide, which have brought many unique insights to #web3 investment.

Finally, I would like to conclude with a quote from my favorite teacher, Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche: “If you must engage in worldly affairs, treat it as a performance. An actor does not lose themselves because their role is that of a king or a beggar. They know it is just a temporary costume.”

In life, we must play various roles. Sometimes we are employees, sometimes parents; sometimes we are glamorous and dignified, sometimes humble and lowly. Over time, we come to regard these identities as “me.” Once the role wavers, the whole person becomes disordered.

But in reality, all of this is just a performance. No matter how well you act, it is not you; no matter how poorly you act, it cannot harm you. The real you is the one who remains clear and settled after taking off the costume and removing the makeup.

You can be serious about your work, but don’t take it too seriously. You can give your all in your efforts, but don’t let the results define who you are. Today you may be a king, and tomorrow you might be a beggar; today you are needed, and tomorrow you might be forgotten.

If you can understand this, regardless of success or failure, honor or disgrace, you will not lose yourself. It’s not about not participating, but about participating with awareness, both acting and not getting lost in the role. Let’s encourage each other!
