So I just realized I dropped 3.5 million on-chain over the last 3 years... pretty wild when you see it all laid out like that. Honestly though, I'm pretty sure a ton of it went to SyncSwap and Orbiter doing the whole swap farming thing on zkSync. That's where the gas fees really add up.

Anyway, here's the thing—if you haven't already, go grab your ORBS and module rewards right now. Seriously, don't sleep on it. Could very well be part of the airdrop criteria down the line, and you don't want to miss that window. Better to claim early than to be kicking yourself later.

3.5 million invested, the gas fees are really outrageous. Swap farming is just a bottomless pit.

3.5 million in on-chain spending... Man, the gas fees must be really painful. --- zkSync is indeed a black hole; once you get into swap farming, you can't stop. --- You must claim ORBS; you'll regret it later if you miss out. --- Claiming early is never wrong, anyway it doesn't cost anything. --- Burned 3.5 million in three years... How long do I have to lie low to break even? --- Don't sleep on module rewards; it feels like a setup for the next airdrop. --- That gas for SyncSwap... I still feel the pain thinking about it now. --- But to be fair, this wave of ORBS is really attractive. Jump in before it gets hot. --- 3.5 million, huh? This guy is really living on-chain. --- The problem with grabbing now is that I have no money left lol.

Oh my God, 3.5 million just disappeared like that. Swap farming is really a black hole. Wait, can I now claim the ORBS rewards? I need to check quickly. The gas fees are indeed outrageous; zkSync isn't as cheap as I imagined. If module rewards are really counted towards the airdrop, I need to hurry up. Anyway, I'll claim them first. I've also fallen into the SyncSwap trap. Liquidity mining seems easy but actually results in significant losses. It feels like everything ultimately flows into gas fees... I've heard of ORBS before but didn't pay much attention. Should I go all in now?
