Overdose

I know degens who were uber drivers 3 years ago and are now set for life because of this industry.
And instead of being grateful these same ppl are on the timeline crying about crypto being ded.
Crypto gave you EVERYTHING.
Took you from nothing to something and you repay it by only doom posting 24/7?!
Yeah the trenches are fked BIG TIME rn, you know how vocal I am about it..
But this is STILL the only industry on earth where a REGULAR person like me and you that was NOT born into a rich family
Can change his entire bloodline in the span of a few months.
So instead of ONLY complaining about the

You can trade 500 different coins a day on your terminal and have a few k's to show for it by the end of the month.
Then some anon degen who made 2-3 trades the ENTIRE MONTH is sitting on more PnL than you've made all year.
TWO TRADES.
And this degen spent the rest of his time doing absolutely NOTHING other than researching, networking and sharpening his skills.
All whilst you were glued to a screen 16 hours a day flipping shitcoins after an avg time of 2 min (yes, 2min)
It's not just me - but the most profitable traders I know in this space trades maybe 5 different coins a month MAX.
Master p

Is 1mil mc the new 10mil mc?

There was never an easier time to build up your network.
Seriously - so many people left, which is a sad thing but also good for those who stayed.
You can now network with almost ANYONE because there's nothing much going on..
Take advantage, and your chances to make millions in the next cycle will be 500x higher.
Few

People blame PvPs and stupid ideas but I really wonder
What would make YOU to HOLD a NEW coin you bought for LONGER than 24 hours? (Utility / Meme it doesn't matter)

One of the reasons normies won't enter the trenches right now is because everything they see looks like day trading on steroids.
Terminals, bundles, sniping tools, copy trading and multi wallets..
You think a normal person looks at that and gets excited? Because as far as I see - this gives them PTSD flashbacks to "their uncle" who lost his pension on forex in 2008.
Normies don't need to see TRADERS - what got them in the previous cycles was the SIMPLEST shit imaginable.
Buy a cute meme (Shib, PEPE, FLOKI etc), forget about it for 4 months and come back to 100x on your money.
THIS type of stor

The biggest test for decentralized perps platforms was 10/10
If the biggest liquidation event in history didn't make people stop gambling - nothing will.
That's why I keep DCAing into $HYPE and $ASTER (Biggest perps platform and CZ's baby)
I will come back to this post in the bull

I look at some of these "solo traders" and genuinely wonder how they haven't lost their minds yet.
Some degen sitting alone in his room 16 hours a day staring at axiom,
buying and selling shitters, not speaking to a SINGLE human being the entire day.
Even 9-5 wagers have ppl around them to talk at lunch..
The "solo trader" has literally nothing except for few-min charts.
This is why community memes and utility coins will ALWAYS be the play for me.
Not even from a money perspective but from a SANITY perspective.
You join a TG, you talk and argue with degens, you hold bags together, you celebrat

The thing that ACTUALLY onboards people into crypto is NORMAL degens turning $500 into a million by HOLDING
Not by extracting scraps from 50K mcap coins 16 hours a day via buying, bundling and snipping.
You think a normie sees that and wants to participate?
A normal person with a normal job sees a video of some kid bundling 20 wallets, launching a coin and selling it for 20 SOL is NOT appealing.
Return to quality and the normies will come.

Got a D M this morning: "Bro why don't you shill this coin? It's full of OG whales and a very strong community!!"
I go and check: 225k MC ☠️

I DCA in $TAO because it's currently the biggest AI token during the biggest AI bubble in modern history
I DCA in $XMR because it's the strongest and most widely used privacy coin - in a world where privacy doesn't exist anymore.
The more this world gets fked up - the more ppl will need privacy

I see all the doom posters telling me I'm "delusional" for being optimistic.
40k $BTC, some even calling for 20k
Cool, but what's YOUR thesis?
Because every single time I ask one of these bears to explain their reasoning all I get is "the trenches are cooked bro".
Where is the reasoning for why 40k is the PROBABLE outcome versus everything else?
Do you understand how little of impact the trenches had on $BTC in the last year or so?

If we want to heal the trenches,
We can start by not putting a badge of honour on T!ktok teenagers who screen record themselves extracting 20K from a 40K topper with some cringe remix in the bg.
Back in the day that same jeeter would've been blacklisted from every group and community,
tx's screenshotted and passed around like a mugshot.
Now? they get engagement, cheering and copy traders.
