This is why I follow this guy for more than a year now.
He builds. He keep the space clean... or it tries.
Honestly, I wouldn't last 1 month on his shoes. I would be frustrated and move on. No more building.
More than that, IRL problems, big ones... like a cancer. Yes.
And unlike a clown that used to make funny of people and call them losers (I'm sure you remember him, but karma is a bitch), he didn't took pictures in quimo of launched bundled coins to "support" him.
That's the real difference between LARPers, scammers and honest people that really enjoys Crypto.
- This is for YOU that complains about rugs
- This is for YOU that complains about scam KOLs
- This is for YOU that say the trenches are dead
- This is for YOU that says we'll never back to good old times
He has already several products/apps/platforms, and honestly I just feel sorry I can't give him 10 out 100k to keep his work going!
The coin supporting all of this ($MASTR) was at 50k MCap a few weeks ago.
At the same time a complete clown and a story that would only do a real bad movie, got Millions in minutes. Just to everybody lose their money right after. The usual.
My honest question is: what's wrong with you?!?!
I'm sorry, but I'm getting a bit tired of this space...
A few thoughts for the weekend that hardly anyone will read.
Most projects here die, and surviving can mean spending years building in the shadows without meaningful recognition.
Almost nobody wants that part. Look at how quickly people distance themselves from their own projects once the attention disappears and keeping their promises starts requiring sustained effort.
Some are simply too lazy to follow through and too full of themselves to do work that nobody applauds. They move on to the next announcement while everyone who believed them is left holding their abandoned promises.
If you want to build or launch something here, understand how much depends on money and having the right contacts.
A good product can sit unnoticed while a mediocre one gets funding, introductions and constant coverage because its founder knows the people controlling access to an audience.
Those relationships give you room to make mistakes, money to keep operating and people willing to explain your vision before you’ve delivered it.
Without them, you can ship something that works and still spend months being asked to prove you deserve a chance.
That is why a LARPer with the right group chats can get further than someone doing the actual work.
They know how to present activity as progress, turn introductions into credibility and keep their name circulating.
Once enough connected accounts repeat the same praise, people start treating it as independent validation.
Being well connected starts looking like being competent, while the person quietly maintaining a useful product looks irrelevant because nobody influential has told the audience to care.
This industry makes that confusion incredibly profitable.
And spare me the endless speeches about supporting real builders. Support has to translate into something eventually: using the product, giving useful feedback, recommending it or helping it sustain itself.
A like is appreciated, but it doesn’t cover infrastructure costs. If everyone agrees something should exist while expecting someone else to fund it, the person building it eventually pays with their salary, evenings and family time.
Then, when they finally stop, people ask why the good projects keep disappearing.
I’ve also started trading again.
I had to put it aside because building all this and spending so much time here left little room for it.
Now that I’ve built myself tools that give me an actual edge, I’m doing better than I expected.
It’s satisfying to see the work improve my own decisions after spending so much time explaining its value to people who haven’t even tried it.
I’m used to building quietly and waiting.
I believe the recognition will come, and I’m already seeing value in what I’ve built. It generates a lot of value for the ones using it.
But patience doesn’t make the bills disappear, and quality doesn’t automatically find an audience. Most people won’t keep pouring money and energy into something for years while watching better-connected bullshit get rewarded.
For many of you, the smarter decision would be to join something that already has a credible foundation and put your skills into making it stronger.
Find a working product and people who have demonstrated that they honour their commitments.
Contribute where your effort can build on progress instead of starting every struggle from zero.
Of course, that doesn’t fit everyone’s dream of owning the project, setting the direction and getting the recognition.
But your ambition doesn’t remove the costs, create an audience or guarantee that you’ll keep working when the excitement disappears.
Most people attempting this alone won’t turn it into something sustainable. Very few will endure everything required.
Joining an existing effort may give your work a much better chance of becoming useful than launching another project you eventually find excuses to abandon.
That is a hard reality to accept when you’re attached to being the founder, but ignoring it won’t make you the exception.
Good morning! 👋
A new week starts and I'm really curious to see what happens from now on.
I remain pessimistic, still, big part of my feed are betting long.
As said before, 99,99% of the times I'm wrong, so lets see if I maintain my "win rate".
Have a great Monday! 👌
I swapped a big part of my SOL to USDC...
Why? Because I want to stack more SOL and I believe I can buy it cheaper in the near future.
I may be wrong (99% of the time, I am!), but I'm not optimistic for the next weeks.
The environment outside Crypto (real world) it's a crap right now. Inside Crypto, the same.
Said that, I'll try to buy more SOL at cheaper prices and as a bonus, win some fees in the way.
Wish me luck, I guess.
@MeteoraAG@met_lparmy
Look Mom, I'm in a game! 😁😁😁
I was joking a few weeks ago when I said this game need a Pharaoh...
And now I see this... I'm so honored and thankful! 🙏
I've been following so many LP goats over the last year, and @MichaelZogot is without doubts one of my favorite @met_lparmy members.
He's always cooking and you should really give him a follow!
Thanks Goat! 🥹
@met_lparmy
@solana_sailor@playboicarti@Pumpfun Are you really making that question?!
What's happening with everybody? 🤦
Can people see the obvious scams, day after day...? Damn!
@Mystral_777 He didn't made anything...
Do you even know how a swap works? He would never be able to cash out anything near that value.
What an anon... 🤦
