2.5 mil on $starman is cheap, but expecting this trade to drag out a bit so will keep dca'ing.
SpaceX's IPO is coming and Starman is their most mainstream-friendly marketing play by a mile. They just dropped their first announcement an hour ago and Starman was all over it. The momentum is only going to build from here.
$asteroid was a good bid a few weeks back but since then SpaceX hasnt acknowledged it (and probably wont because the IPO is too serious of a deal) and the only person who would is Elon who seems to have forgotten about it. $asteroid Rotation into $starman soon.
If you zoom out beyond crypto, beyond SpaceX, and even beyond Elon, STARMAN represents something surprisingly ancient:
The human urge to go beyond the horizon.
For thousands of years, humanity has had symbols for exploration.
The first sailors crossing unknown oceans.
The first climbers reaching summits.
The first pilots leaving the ground.
STARMAN is the space-age version of that archetype.
Not a warrior.
Not a politician.
Not a celebrity.
Just a traveller looking outward.
That's part of why the image became so powerful. The astronaut's visor is opaque. There is no face. No identity. No nationality.
Anyone can project themselves into the suit. And thanks to SpaceX's endeavours, the suit will one day be worn by our children, and their children.
STARMAN isn't a person.
He's humanity.

Most corporate mascots are created by marketing departments.
STARMAN was created by ambition.
That's why he keeps showing up.
When SpaceX prepared for its IPO, the company didn't just present numbers. The image of STARMAN remained part of the story inside the SEC S-1 filing prospectus.
Because deep down, the company knows something investors are learning:
SpaceX was never built around quarterly results.
It was built around a mission that sounded impossible.
Build reusable rockets.
Lower the cost of access to space.
Reach Mars.
Make humanity multiplanetary.
STARMAN became the visual shorthand for all of it.
And now, with a new Tesla Roadster approaching and SpaceX entering the public markets, the symbolism feels stronger than ever.
The same car that once represented the future of Earth.
The same company trying to build the future beyond Earth.
Connected forever by one astronaut drifting through space.
A meme became mythology.
STARMAN.
too many poker players play soft pre flop and then try to be aggressive post flop after they've made a hand
great poker players play aggressive pre flop or before they've made a hand to realize their equity
same goes for crypto and sizing - too many people like to size after a play has become consensus and it's a "made hand"
few bet aggressively pre flop (when the play is still non consensus) and they have a read
focus on your sizing and maximizing your spots
Even if someone would provide an miracle strategy/indicator with 100% accuracy, majority would still lose money when manual trading. Because its not really market knowledge or some secret sauce that prevents manual traders from success.
At its root its the perception over markets, that is not perceiving it like a job or strict ruleset game, where u login, scalp some profit, logout, came in next day, but perceiving it as casino/golden ticket/homerun etc.
To be successful in this first you need to win a fight against yourself, fight against most basic psychological instincts and feels, a fight that filters 99% of people attempting it and makes it lowest success rate profession on earth.
Every single losing trader, with little thought put into it, and experience past the point of coping with "market's is scam", "rigged", "algos/divine forces/exchange/market maker on my ass rekting me" will understand why he's lossing money, why he's not succeeding, yet he do same things and same mistakes over and over.
Its an individual choice, a personal fight, noone can help him but speculator himself.
Most plebs that actually invested some time to learn this art probably already have everything that is required to be successful and operate effectively, yet it choses not to use it by losing to its own emotions, perceptions, and thoughts.
