I've been tinkering a lot with Perps lately, so I wanted to update everyone on my real-world experience.
First, about the Lighter platform: when I logged in this morning, I saw my points had suddenly dropped by half again. This move is baffling—are things just that competitive, or is there something weird going on with the system? What's even more frustrating is that my friend's accounts have been getting flagged for sybil behavior one after another, to the point where it's almost not worth playing anymore.
I originally had some hedged positions there, but now it looks like I'll have to consider moving elsewhere. If my points keep shrinking like this, there's no way to maintain a decent yield. Honestly, with the platform changing the rules so often, the user experience is really taking a hit. I think I'll need to reevaluate my capital allocation strategy moving forward.

Lighter is really getting more and more ridiculous, the points are shrinking as fast as a landslide.
With such strict witch-hunt risk control, how are we supposed to play, bro?
Looks like we have to move again. This platform changes its rules more often than I change my strategies.

Another story of points shrinking, Lighter’s move is really something else.
Lighter is at it again with the tricks, slashing points by half directly—who can handle that?
Witch detection is back—are they clearing the field or actually managing risk?
The rules change way too often, players are getting totally frustrated.
Where should the money go? Feels like all these platforms are dropping the ball.
Lighter’s points blowup feels like another round of fleecing users.
A friend’s account got flagged as a witch, that’s just outrageous.
What else can you say about the returns? Looks like we have to jump through hoops again.
The rule changes are like magic tricks—can’t keep up anymore.
Points vanish halfway through—does this business even make sense anymore?

Oh my god, Lighter just cut the points in half? That’s brutal, feels like the platform is going crazy with harvesting.
The sybil checks are getting stricter too. All my friends are complaining—it’s getting scary to take any action.
I don’t get it. With the rules changing this often, who would dare make big bets?
I really have to recalculate my fund allocation, or all this effort will be for nothing.
Lighter’s move is honestly outrageous. I can’t even tell what the platform is trying to do anymore.
Points are shrinking so fast, I’m seriously considering pulling out.
