I've been heavily speculating in the markets (not full time) since 1992. My first trades were before online brokerage, you had to call in for quotes and to place orders. 4% commission in AND out.
I had a great run during the DOT COM era. By 1999, I had a really chunky (for my age) portfolio and thought it was easy. By late 2000, the account was $0. That part was fun, at least. For the next 10 years I was super active, some good runs, some big drawdowns. Overall, nothing exceptional. Just decent.
Then something shifted. The need to speculate faded and that’s when things actually got better.
Once I stopped chasing it, opportunities started coming to me. Not just in trading. As I’ve gotten older and less interested in money itself, seeing opportunity has become clearer. And more than anything, removing that constant need elevated how I experience life.
This isn’t meant to be spiritual (for some it is). But for a lot of people who are active and still underperforming, it’s worth asking what purpose this is really serving.
Most of the time, it’s just a dopamine loop. And for many, it’s closer to an addiction than they would like to admit. And that could be what’s holding you back.
Sir, you should take a serious look here:

Quit freaking out.
Requests for extensions of time happen in almost every case at some point. Some are legit, some are BS. Some are agreed upon by the parties, some are opposed.
This one is opposed, as it should be. As RH's team laid out, the SEC has had PLENTY of time to correct known deficiencies in their Complaint. They even blew the deadline for filing amendments in the scheduling order they agreed to back early last year.
Now that they got spanked, they claim they need additional time to figure out if there's any way to save their case.
Most of these types of requests are granted by the court, albeit some of them grudgingly. You've already seen the glacial speed at which courts move. 30 days to them is a blink of an eye compared to how long things normally take.
The court will balance the following factors:
1. Is 30 days reasonable in the grand scheme of things.
2. Is there any reasonable possibility that the SEC can fix the myriad problems if given 30 more days?
3. Why didn't the SEC try and amend known deficiencies previously?
4. Prejudice to the defendant, who wants nothing more than to move on with his life.
5. Whether the court thinks the request is a waste of the court's time.
I don't know how Judge Amon will react to this, but just based on personal experience with opposed extension requests and the fact that the SEC didn't identify a single specific item they'd be including in their amended complaint, I'd say the odds on this aren't over 50%.
Compare:
"Hey Judge, we've got some facts now that we didn't have before, like X, Y, and Z, and we think we can now comply with your order and file a proper amended complaint"
is WAY different than:
"Yeah, Judge, we don't have any idea if we have any additional facts to present to you, but why don't you give us an extra 30 to, you know, look through our files and stuff, since we didn't bother to even do that until now."
The first one gets granted most of the time. The second? Not much of a reason to grant it. Why the SEC would choose the second route is beyond my comprehension.
Regardless, even if it is granted, it still doesn't mean the SEC would be able to fix the 30 pages of deficient pleadings that the Court identified, and God help them if they file some half-assed amended complaint that doesn't come close. The judge added the specific warning to the SEC about filing an amended complaint "in good faith" in her order for a reason.
Chill. Things are going to be ok.
I assume most of you cry babies haven’t gone through real pain last cycles. Otherwise you would know it’s all the same story every time, just the reasons are different.
I have done my best to keep your head up during the bear but the truth is not everyone is going to make it.
The obvious outcome of Pump tires is that you get the biggest runners initially and one of those may stand out. $MOST seems to be that token because it is made by RH he holds 80 percent and it has his face on it and is just the obvious meme token by him.
All the subsequent coins have done worse and worse and it was always obvious within a few weeks the PvP nature would be obvious.
There will be more great memes but we are probably talking 1/1000 launches will be great.
Most will be rugs or just die as these tokens have no utility to them
So just know if you are playing them you are sitting at the casino and take your initials out quickly or someone else will take your core coins from you.
At this stage in the cycle with how cheap the cores are it’s smart to focus on them and save dinner money for the occasional degen play.
HEX PLS PLSX MOST PTGC snd UFO are all giving nice entries right now. I know im shopping 🛒
Hmm homeless looking guy rugs his token? Maybe don’t buy coins launched by people who look like they can’t even afford soap.
Also right now is an amazing time to load up on the core coins and solid alts.
HEX
PLS
PLSX
MOST
PTGC
If you ever want to make it in crypto you need to have conviction to hold
Now is the time to be buying dips and adding to your long term holds
I have strong conviction on:
HEX
PulseX
Pulsechain
MOST
PTGC
Currently working on pressuring some larger exchanges I've worked with to list $HEX and $PLS.
