Your brain is literally being farmed.
Notifications, algos, variable reward loops — all engineered to hijack the same dopamine circuits that kept your ancestors alive.
Every ping. Every infinite scroll. Every "just one more trade" moment.
It's not willpower you lack. It's awareness.
Once you see the pattern, you can break it. Reclaim your attention. Make better decisions. Stop getting exit liquidity'd by your own dopamine.
This applies to markets too — FOMO, hopium, panic selling? All the same exploit running on your wetware.
