Honestly, the thing about unrealized losses is that they make people lose sleep more than unrealized gains do. A +3% on paper, and I just think "Oh, that's okay," but a -3% on paper, and I start mentally replaying why I clicked confirm in the first place, even checking if my slippage was caused by a shaky hand. It's all about loss aversion—frankly, a loss feels like being robbed face-to-face, while a gain feels more like finding a coin, so the imbalance is clear.
What's even more annoying is that lately on-chain, there's been debates about miner/validator income, MEV, fairness in transaction ordering... You clearly do the same swap, but a quick sandwich or route change turns the unrealized loss from "market fluctuation" into "someone just pickpocketed me," doubling the psychological damage.
Next time, I plan to be more realistic: try small positions, set slippage to the max, and check the route and estimated impact before confirming. Do you guys have any practical tricks to prevent unrealized losses from messing with your head?
