Как оплачиваете общий ужин за границей, если у всех разные карты и валюты? Один закрывает счёт или каждый проходит собственный маленький обменный квест?

Keeping the payment reference alongside a booking number sounds obsessive until you have three similar charges and no idea which one belongs to which reservation

I'd happily pay a little extra for a clear arrival time on an international transfer. “Fast” is vague when someone is waiting to pay their rent

P2P payments involving third-party bank accounts deserve extra caution. A familiar-looking transfer notification doesn't tell you the full story behind the payment

It's interesting how quickly people trust an exchange rate displayed on a website without checking whether it includes every fee

Planning a trip to Bali and trying to figure out the best way to handle money. Would you bring cash, use ATMs, or exchange digital assets locally?

Withdrawing crypto via P2P can lead to entire bank account frozen and money laundering liability. Banks have very low risk appetite for P2P, can't do due diligence on counterparty. Use only legal channels

A bit more on this: It's an interesting phenomenon in crypto in that you can definitely enrich yourself despite building nothing of value (whereas this is harder to do in traditional venture/building). Oftentimes teams in crypto will take $ from their treasury and/or dump their team tokens onto the market to extract. If they're lucky enough to get to that point, it's usually always a situation where they get rich and bagholders suffer- again, this is different in equities where you generally see everyone getting rich simultaneously instead of someone holding the bag at the end.

For those teams that don't build anything of value and eventually flip to just trading, they realize that nobody is going to use their product and the above 2 sources (take from treasury or dump team tokens) isn't going to work out. Most builders in crypto are building simply because they want to get rich, not because they see this project as something they HAVE to build or is their life goal. Again, quite different than traditional venture and building.

It's also why you see so many builders pivot pretty quickly and/or abandon their project and go to the next one. There are many 'serial entrepreneurs' in this space who have 5 different projects and grift over and over.

It gets to the point where founders realize that the best way to make money is simply by trading in crypto. Building is hard. It's very difficult to actually find a good sustainable business and one where you can actually generate profit aside from your token. And in a way, it's a reason why some of the best founders in this space were already rich to begin with. Being rich and then deciding to build is a much better filter because that builder is focused on the mission and actually knows what is needed in crypto. Contrast that with some random guy who started building, got some venture money, but has had 0 success in crypto on his own (and thus doesnt even know what he's building for) and you see lots of failures.

anyways, all of this to say is that I have a lot of respect for those builders out there who continue the mission and know what they are trying to accomplish and staying focused. And for those who are just grifting or trading or doing other stuff, you should just be honest with yourself and admit that you simply want to make money (nothing wrong with it) and go more the trading route.

CT tends to forget things very easily

people often talk about my $BONK trade in isolation, but i've traded memecoins across multiple cycles and have been vocal about this fact for a long time now

my BONK trade is my most viral trade, but that trade isn't even close to being my biggest memecoin trade

when i first came onto the scene with the BONK trade in 2023, many doubted me and thought i was retarded

i didn't even have an X (then Twitter) account at the time

it was a trade i took in @0xLawliette's 'The Lab' group, and soon a lot of trenches groups started talking about my trade as i provided updates in The Lab (which L shared on his Twitter page then)

i initially went from $16k to $50k to $100k, and then $1 million plus on that single trade

then the story took off on Twitter and many begged me to open an X account

i opened an X account and became a main character on and off for a while, as people mocked and dunked on me during drawdowns, then hailed me again whenever my uPnL ripped with the market

everyone sees the $BONK trade as 'the guy who turned $16k into $20m plus on a single trade' as if it was some effortless lucky run that went up in a straight line

very few people saw the conviction it took to keep holding while things looked hopeless and almost everyone on this platform turned on me and made me the butt of their jokes for months every time the market dipped

but i was pretty clear and loyal to both my thesis and conviction at the time, and i rode that trade from $16k to $20m plus at peak

of course 10/10 happened and i got wiped out

no one predicted an 80% crash in a single candle on blue chip altcoins in mere minutes

nothing remotely like it had happened before in crypto

it didn't even happen during COVID

it's an anomaly and shouldn't have happened

anyway, that chapter is over: i've been humbled and i've learned key lessons that will forever remain with me

however, it's easy to look at my BONK trade in isolation and regard it as 'pure luck'

in addition to BONK:

• i nailed almost every major Elon meta in group chats and realized several 7 figures worth of profit on them e.g. with $GROK and many other memecoins at the time (i played a huge role in getting many of the new cyclers to understand Elon's power in moving memecoin markets)
• with GROK for example, i clearly laid out my thesis, aggressively pushed it and got many of the Lab homies to see the vision even though i had limited clout at the time. i think The Lab collectively bought over 10% of its supply at some point mainly due to my thesis, maybe even more, and many made 6 - 7 figures in profits as a result
• i called almost every major bluechip runner of the 2024 meme run before they exploded
• i publicly turned $5k into $1 million plus on a single $WIF trade
• i publicly turned low six figs into $8m plus on a single $FARTCOIN trade
• i publicly turned low six figs into 7 figs on several other coins e.g. $POPCAT, $PNUT, etc
• i called the Politifi meta way ahead of most and publicly turned peanuts into mid-7 figs to 8 figs on a few Politifi coins
• i called the Roaring Kitty meta (with the $GME, $AMC, and similar memecoins at the time) and hit mid 7 figs on low six figs invested into these coins

i'm not trying to say i'm perfect btw

i'm deeply flawed, and i have publicly proven to be bad at taking profits

in hindsight, this only became an issue after i started documenting my trades because i somehow felt responsible for people who followed me and became too worried about what would happen to their positions if i took profits

that was a very stupid (and poor!) mindset to have, and i've grown out of it (hopefully!)

the point of all of my ramblings above is this:

there is a method to my madness with memecoins, and i've traded them long enough, through multiple cycles and hundreds of coins, to trust my instincts

i very rarely have this level of conviction in any memecoin

and i can count on one hand the amount of memecoins that i've had that level of conviction in e.g. BONK, FLOKI, etc (all ended up hitting multi-billion-dollar market cap and being generational trades for me)

when i keep hammering on just one coin while an army of people pocketwatch, mock, and ridicule me... even though i could have made 7 figures, maybe even 8 figures, by cutting deals and shilling dozens of other stuff i have no conviction in (and i get a crazy amount of offers)... it's because i have extremely high conviction in the potential of that coin

the level of conviction i have in $USELESS is greater than i've had in almost anything else in this market

so i'll keep pushing it aggressively until it gets to the level i believe it's ultimately headed toward in due time 🫡
