13 years ago Telegram was one of the first tech companies I invested in.
8 years ago I put $10M into $TON in a private round.
I’ve also held $UTYA and $REDO for more than 2 years too.
Seeing @durov lean into TON now feels pretty good.
I’m old enough to pretend I care about fundamentals, but also still enough of a degen to enjoy seeing volume finally show up on-chain.
Fees in TON have dropped 6× — to nearly zero.
Next step — Telegram replaces the TON Foundation as the driving force behind TON and becomes its largest validator.
The focus shifts to tech superiority.

"This trader" is me.
And I'm still holding $KINS.
The funny part is I wasn’t trying to make 3650x. I just thought the game looked good and threw $50 at it
My biggest regret is not being less poor-brained for 10 seconds.
A $5,300 buy would’ve been generational, anyways, I'll be taking some profits here and look for the next P2E play!
If I had $1,000 in stocks right now, I would:
1. Get a job asap. Remote if possible.
2. Open one clean cash brokerage account and automate deposits every paycheck.
3. Build a tiny universe: $SPY, $QQQ, $NVDA, $AMD, $MU, $DELL, $ORCL, $AVGO. Learn how they move before touching random tickers.
4. Focus on a few repeatable edges: earnings reactions, AI infrastructure, 13Fs, insider buys, post-earnings drifts, and small caps with real volume.
5. No margin, no 0DTE, no leverage.
6. Put boring money into $VOO/$QQQ first.
7. Use tiny positions as tuition: $25–50 swings only when I have the thesis, catalyst, entry, and invalidation written down.
8. Spend 2h/day reading filings, earnings calls, charts, Form 4s, and old blowups.
9. Keep grinding for months.
$1,000 is not enough to act rich.
It is enough to build reps, learn the tape, and avoid being useless when the first real setup shows up.
I'm up $4,000,000 on a single trade.
Been sitting in this $HYPE long for 2 months
+850% for not overthinking the obvious
Probably taking some profits between $58-$65
Thank you for the entry!

There's a cost to making money.
You'll lose money to make money.
There's a cost to learn at every level.
You'll lose $10k to make $100k .
You'll lose $100k to make $1M.
You'll lose $1M to make $10M.
If you're afraid to lose, you'll never win.
