@Peer_Content It gives the wining team an easier chance at snowballing if you’re already behind and it being in the center of the map it’s way easier for the winning team to just group up and stomp
I conceptually like the idea of the melee mechanic etc,maybe it being mid is the issue
Deadlock is finally getting an in-person LAN this August, hosted by guildhouse!
I’ll be serving as competitive director to help ensure smooth tournament operations between teams, staff, and production.
Everyone is talking about $ZEC
What most don’t know is the team that invented it almost ran out of money
Random ICO vaporware projects had $100M + treasuries
These guys had 9 months of runway left
The most slept on underdog story in crypto
The weekly chart for @Zcash (#ZEC) dominance has recovered to the levels seen back in November 2025. This indicates that capital is rotating into $ZEC at a faster rate than into Bitcoin or other altcoins. If the dominance firmly holds above this level, it suggests that #Zcash is moving beyond a mere "technical rebound" and is likely entering a new long-term bullish cycle.
road to (hopefully) $30m | month 1 recap
last cycle i bought $sol at $20 and sold at $250. retired off that trade. ngl, tough act to follow.
back with $5m for round 2. first month end recap. plenty of room for me to embarrass myself from here.
portfolio: $5.9m. up $580k (+10.8%) since i started this account.
april was an active month. here's what happened.
what i did:
· finished deploying cash into $zec across two big buys, biggest at the start of april
· sold $pump on apr 1 for a ~17% loss (~$33k). thesis didn't hold and i didn't want to nurse it
· exited $near in two chunks. trimmed ~40% mid april, sold the rest on apr 28. apparently i needed two tries to make up my mind
· net: out of pump and near, into zec and $hype
why i cleaned house:
i think this cycle is going to be more concentrated than people expect. less retail than 2021. more competition for gambling money. stocks (ai supply chain, quantum, foreign), sports betting, prediction markets. money probably flows to a few clear narrative winners, not a broad altseason.
i'd rather hold two bags i fully believe in than spread thin across positions i'm second guessing.
the new portfolio:
deployed ~$3.1m into $zec (60%) and ~$2.1m into $hype (40%). that's the conviction split.
as of today: zec at $3.57m (+$511k since i bought), hype at $2.17m (+$69k), cash $200k.
2 asset barbell. one sentence thesis on each:
$hype: profitable casino, real revenue, buys back its token, founder is the anti scammer in an industry full of scammers.
$zec: private money in a surveillance era, quantum resistant, ~$6b market cap, regulatory cloud cleared.
$near needed three sentences and a chart and some squinting to explain the thesis. that's the difference and why i cut it.
why zec gets the slight lean: lower market cap, no unlock overhang, no tradfi comp anchoring upside. hype has gravity from coinbase / robinhood multiples. zec's ceiling is whatever the market decides privacy is worth in a surveillance moment. that's where parabolic moves live.
not a strong differential. just enough to earn 60/40 instead of 50/50.
what i didn't do:
didn't touch hype through the chop. didn't try to time the rotation from near to zec/hype. didn't sell near on a green day to feel better about it.
could've stayed retired. but i love the game, and every dollar i compound now sets my kids up for whatever's next.
goal: $5m → $30m. month one done.

@MidnightRamp@realpeptides Noticed a similar effect. My RHR went from 50-55 to 60-69 and my HRV is down in the 45-50 range when it was in the 70-80 range
