Mom: ''Trading is gambling.''
Dad: ''Stop wasting your life, son.''
Brother: ''It'll never work. Get a real job, bruh.''
Sister: ''You're crazy.''
Cousin: ''You'll lose all your savings.''
Random stranger: ''Keep showing up, dude. I believe in you.''
Trading is so hard , I won’t lie to you .
Been trading for 8 years straight, this game is not for the weak.
During profitable days you will be on top of the world , no formal job will be making sense to you
During unprofitable days , you will be questioning yourself if this is really worth it , are you wasting your time or not . You might even admire those doing 9-5
During rainy days , may you never give up
My wife asked me yesterday:
“How much money would it take for you to stop trading?”
My answer:
No amount.
As I get older, maybe I trade less. Maybe I take fewer setups.
But stop trading? Never.
love the game.
Win or lose, every session is a new puzzle to solve.
You made $200 in 15 minutes and still didn’t close the trade.
You spend 8 hours at work to make that same $200.
Trading can make you blind to money.
Take the money the market gives you in minutes.
Crypto got a lot of you guys messed up in the head.
" Should I take profits I am only up $300 on this trade "
$300 a day, 7 days a week. $2100 weekly, $100k+ a year.
Making nearly triple the average American worker.
A message to Pumpfun. We might delete this post in 24 hours:
We as the Moonpad team have never built something in crypto before. We are just what is left from the trenches and crypto traders.
We are pleased that finally pumpfun erased from the market the typical classic rug pulls (dev removing the liquidity), and we thought finally since 2024 the space would be safer. But the opposite happened. The hell doors are opened.. hundreds of thousands of bundled rugs launching daily…
People have lost millions of dollars, some have committed suicide and lost their life savings. The trust in the memecoins industry got destroyed.
Free launches turned rugging and farming into the easiest money someone could get. Holders started dumping early, devs started rugging earlier. Rarely does something move above 1M market cap. If this continues, no one will buy memecoins anymore, or we will see fewer coins flying above 1M mcap. Even good devs will lose the war since the community is scared to touch anything for the long term.
We really want to fix this or at least to make the space a bit better and make people win again like it was before 2024 with at least 20 daily +10M mcap runners.
For that we are giving Pumpfun 24 hours to:
Implement 1 SOL deploy fees
Or
The dev must lock 5000 USDC until their token reaches +1M mcap!
Reduce trading fees from 1.25% to 0.3% (less fees, the more money in the trader’s pocket).
You have already extracted more than 1.5 billion dollars from the community. It is time to focus on safety more than volume. You can still gain a lot of money from 1 SOL deploy fees.
If this is not going to happen, then it is our shot to try what we can do… and Moonpad will be live in 24 hours from now.
Hundreds of launchpads tried to copy pumpfun. We are not here to copy. We are not here for money. If our solution works, we will all win.
This is the last shot to save what we can save. If it does not work memecoins will face the same fate as NFTs.
Your move!
YOU’RE NEVER TOO LATE.
Remember that. Burn it into your mind.
YOU’RE NEVER TOO LATE.
Crypto isn’t going anywhere, and neither are opportunities. There will always be new ways to make money.
I used to feel like I was behind, that crypto would be dead in a month and I had to make money ASAP.
But that mindset is wrong.
Focus on small steps, stay consistent, and you will make it.
Believe me.
memescope monday was the bottom for the trenches
people realized that following or trying to imitate these dumb fortnite kids will only get them rekt
return to tradition.
return to holding
return to believing
