Suddenly, I found an old computer file buried deep, filled with traces of previous Inscription work. Instantly, those memories flooded back.

I still remember those days, staying up late with friends, struggling in the Inscription realm. The process seemed simple but was actually complicated — downloading image assets, then verifying whether each piece had been minted by someone, and keeping an eye on the index progress, afraid of missing the window.

The operational details may not sound complicated, but the tension at the time is still vivid in my memory. Who would have thought that two years would pass like this? Now it’s been 26 years... Looking at these files, only sighs remain. That period was both crazy and full of the uncertainties unique to Web3.

Haha, all I got from the translation were tears. Back then, I was really like sleepwalking, just刷inscription. Two years just flew by. Thinking back, staying up late to verify the mint was a bit ridiculous. Missing the window period by one second was a huge loss, that kind of tension... Looking back now, it feels like it has faded. Web3 is like that—after the frenzy, all that's left are regrets, but I also miss that passionate enthusiasm.

Oh no, digging up these things is really a bit heartbreaking. The crazy enthusiasm back then now seems ridiculous in hindsight. During that period of inscriptions, we were really on edge, afraid that the window of opportunity would close in the blink of an eye. Looking back now, it seems a bit silly. Two years have passed in the blink of an eye. At that time, I thought I would definitely get rich quickly. Now I just look back on those files to reminisce about youth. The crazy enthusiasm for late-night minting back then, I really can't go back to that now. Looking at these files, I feel a bit emotional. Those irrational days are actually the clearest in my memory.

Ha, that period was really a time of risking it all... Now looking back, it all feels like the taste of youth. During the mint window period, we were really on edge, afraid that we might miss it in the blink of an eye. Two years have passed in the blink of an eye. Looking at these documents now feels like looking at a different version of myself from another world. The image verification process back then was quite a hassle, thinking about it now. The uncertainty back then is now somewhat nostalgic... Only by going crazy did we truly live.

Two years ago, during the mint window, there was no arbitrage opportunity when looking at the data now; the liquidity depth had already collapsed.

Haha, someone is actually digging up old inscription files. My goodness, that period was both exciting and exhausting. Wow, two years have passed. It feels like just yesterday I was frantically minting there. Looking back now, it's all nostalgic memories. The most challenging part of inscribing is that window period. Not a second can be missed, or you'll end up repeating the process. Truly intense. Back then, this was quite interesting. Whether I made money or not, the experience was top-notch. Now looking back, nothing is worth anything anymore, but that madness really can't be recaptured.

Ha, we've suddenly returned to that crazy era... Looking at these documents now, I do feel a bit nostalgic. During the window period, it really could make people go bald, and I can still feel the tension back then. Two years have passed in the blink of an eye. Web3 is like that; today's hot topic becomes dust tomorrow. I miss the feeling of staying up all night to meet deadlines, even though the outcome doesn't really matter anymore. The craziest things often leave the deepest impressions, don't you think?
