Didn’t have @elonmusk doing nazi salutes on my bingo card.
Thus I will drastically change how I use twitter from now on.
Fascism is not the kind of fire you toy with.
Believe people when they show you who they are.
A possible explanation for this “legendary trader”..
My statistics professor once explained an old scam that people used to run:
They’d pick a set of wealthy addresses, say a 1000, and mail them monthly trade signals. The first month, half would get a “buy stock A” tip, the other half “short stock A.” Whichever side ended up correct would get a new letter the next month. Again split in half, long or short on a different stock.
Repeat this a few times and eventually you’ve got a group of people who’ve received 4–5 “accurate” signals in a row. At that point, you pitch them on an investment product, a managed account, an LP deal or whatever gets them to commit capital. It was never about trading skill, just statistical filtering.
Why does this matter?
Because this could be the same thing in a new wrapper:
> Deploy a few wallets on Hyperliquid
> Hedge positions on a CEX or another wallet (stay delta-neutral)
> Highlight the wallet with insane performance
> Slap on a ref links, shill shitcoins you launched, dump bags on retail
> Profit from the illusion of being some “skilled” trader
And that wallet? Doesn’t even need to belong to a trader. Could be a liquidity provider getting a cut from the operation, or someone fronting a grift to build fake credibility.
Not all PnL is real. Stay safe.
Land in @PlayHoneyland is in such an unfortunate spot.
It relies on high DAU to be good ROI.
But since we don’t have DAU, by the time we got all the nerfs to $HXD harvesting - land just existed as shit ROI for the entirety of that time.
Bad investment these days. Sigh.
@filbertsteiner - I know I said a bunch of stuff and we had ideas, but things change as they need to
- your own fault for assuming too tight time horizons
- web 3 is not web 2
- you should be happy this is a game not a job
- don’t stress about the $HXD ATL, it’s temporary
- trust
- we have cool things planned
- treat $HXD as a product, here are some ideas
- things aren’t quite working as intended, they never do - deal with it
- trust me fam
- here is something cool to spend $HXD on soon
- typical good @filbertsteiner hype energy
- it’s the markets fault $HXD isn’t performing
- we did all these improvements to the game in the last year
- low DAU is not an issue, we have money
- look at all these collabs, something will come out of that
- U2 performance and all the $HXD sinks are net good
- we work hard
@Clearblue2021@Zellax_HXD@filbertsteiner And then there is the whole: if the bearmarket is the problem (and thus a bull market would fix it) please explain what happened during the time $SOL and $BTC went to ATH?
Just watched the small econ talk call. Thanks @Zellax_HXD@Clearblue2021@filbertsteiner for hopping on and sharing hopium.
Funny enough my reaction to this is:
I’ve been overspending in the last weeks and months and shouldn’t put more in.
There is a reason I skipped U2..
@Clearblue2021@Zellax_HXD@filbertsteiner Not necessarily disagreeing with the assessment.
Unfortunately we have multiple points of reference in time regarding token price trend and the wording has been constant as a response to questioning that: „trust me bro“.
My engagement is definitely much lower as a result.
@Zellax_HXD@Clearblue2021@filbertsteiner I appreciated you pointing out the staking and how it went.
In general most if not all points raised make sense from a theoretical perspective and you guys could have talked so much longer ofc.
Yet it’s always tricky to agree on specific actionables.
Keep doing these 👍
@PlayHoneyland And to be fair I have to add that ROI in my case includes time.
My time doing in-game actions.
If you could measure fun in $ spent ; that does not - at this point in (my) time - equate well enough for HL.
Too low ROI per hour to be an investment, too high cost to be fun.
