There's something special about grinding through VC deals with your crew—whether you're analyzing tokens together, sharing losses when projects implode, or celebrating those rare wins that actually print. You build a bond that only comes from experiencing both the brutal downturns and euphoric gains side by side. Those late-night calls analyzing charts, the group chats during market chaos, the collective facepalm moments—this is what creates lasting memories in the crypto community. When you've been through a rugpull together or celebrated a 10x together, that's a connection money alone can't buy.
