in life you only need to win big once.
i’ve met so many people who’ve had just one massive hit and retired their entire bloodline.
that’s literally all it takes.
it doesn’t matter how many times you fail.
the downside is always limited.
but the upside is infinite.
it's the most misunderstood concept in crypto right now.
hardly anyone can explain it.
yet everyone's asking it.
"why are prices down despite so much bullish news?"
the truth is that crypto isn't trading on what the tech does today. it's trading on what the market hopes it might do tomorrow.
and the wild price swings we see today are merely the market trying to price the potential of the rails being built (ie speculation).
the real wealth will be made once real adoption arrives, and crypto becomes boring everyday tech.
so what does this mean?
to understand this concept, we need to travel back in time to 1999, the dot com boom.
back when adding ".com" to a business plan meant an instant billion dollar valuation. back when stocks traded on pure speculation about what the internet would become.
valuations had very little to do with real-world usage.
and when reality hit, the bubble burst. amazon crashed over 90%. nvidia plummeted 85%.
the headlines claimed the internet failed. but it didn't.
far from it - everything today runs on the internet.
so what happened?
the speculation phase was simply washed out to make room for the utility phase. amazon eventually reached a trillion-dollar valuation because it built useful, everyday tech on top of the newly laid digital rails (the exact kind of utility @easya_app is helping build today).
the real winners, like amazon, survived because they crossed the chasm from "speculative hype" to "everyday utility." (remember the s-curve from my previous post?).
crypto is in its 1999 era.
the market is pricing the idea of a decentralized network, not its daily reality.
and prices will continue to swing wildly on hype and speculation until blockchain tech reaches the point of mass adoption (ie people use it everyday, without even realising it).
but when this invisible tech finally does underpin the multi-trillion dollar global financial system?
you better lock in.
because by then you'll be kicking yourself for not having seen it coming.
they want to ban crypto because for the first time in history we have a technology that can free people from the shackles of big banks.
we won't let them stop it.
A week ago I told a young man to make sure he bought some ripple:native.
Of course he was excited, but an older female store manager tried to question me about $XRP, and I told her what it was.
Today I went back to the store and asked if he bought any. His response was, “Nah, I’ve been busy.”
Once I heard that, I just said “OK,” because I knew the lady had gotten to him and told him not to buy any.
He was the last person I told, and he will be the last person I tell.
My days of telling people outside this app about $XRP are officially over.
The 99% on the outside think crypto is a scam. In reality, it’s the safest and fastest way to get wealthy if you know what you’re doing.
Those of us already invested will be filthy rich, while they’ll be the ones wishing they had bought 5 or 10 $XRP.
