BTC remains hard money.
I still believe that.
But I’ve also accepted that pure conviction without capital growth is slow.
So I’m actively trading liquid assets — mainly high-volume pairs — with the sole purpose of compounding capital and scaling operations.
The goal isn’t to abandon the hard money thesis.
It’s to control more of it over time.
@iamflams Consistency is the name of the game when it comes to trading. Lucky fellas often try their luck multiple times only to give back what they earned. The market is brutal and only the skilled survive long term.
Casinos are to gamblers what exchanges are to directional traders.
For a long time, gamblers had no real choice. If they wanted to play, they had to accept the house edge and place their bets anyway.
Then something changed. People realised they could buy shares in the companies that own the casinos. Suddenly they were on the other side of the table, collecting dividends from the same system that used to grind them down.
The same shift is available in trading.
Most traders still believe they have to place orders, pay fees, and hope the market moves in their favour. They stay on the gambler’s side of the table.
But it is possible to switch sides.
Market makers take the other side of the trade. Instead of paying fees, they often receive rebates. They profit from the flow — including when directional traders get stopped out.
I’ve built and run grid systems that operate this way: structured, delta-aware, and designed to harvest the market rather than predict it.
If that approach interests you, I share the step-by-step process of building and running these systems.
Most traders were never taught how to make money without taking a directional view.
Delta neutral addresses that. When your setup is truly delta neutral, you’re not betting on price going up or down. You’re positioned to capture value regardless of direction.
The simplest version is classic arbitrage: hold the spot and short the perpetual, then collect the funding rate. Clean, passive, and direction-independent.
But there are more powerful variations. I’ve built systems that go beyond basic funding capture — structured grid + hedge setups that keep harvesting across a wide range of market conditions.
No prediction required. Just consistent execution.

Looking for an elegant and balanced trading setup?
Triangular arbitrage with grids delivers.
You run grids on three pairs at the same time:
• ETH/BTC
• BTC/USD
• ETH/USD
Price discrepancies between these pairs create small, repeated opportunities. The grids capture them automatically.
And last, add in a short on ETHUSD-PERP. This keeps the whole system delta neutral — you’re no longer exposed to whether ETH goes up or down.
The result is a machine that harvests market movements and converts them into profit, regardless of direction.
No need to predict the next move. Just let the structure work.
Seasoned traders love to say that market making requires huge capital for tiny returns.
They push that idea and nudge you toward directional trading — the path where most people without experience lose money.
There’s a better way.
My grid setup runs with a minimum of $1,000. In normal market conditions it can target around 1% per month.
No need for massive capital. No need to gamble on direction.
Just consistent execution.
