From $80 million to $500k in one market crash isn't a horror story,
it's a masterclass in why taking profits isn't optional in crypto.

That isn’t a myth or a typo. It is the exact, painful reality for so many people in Web3. The numbers change, but the story is always the same. watching your portfolio hit life-changing heights, only to ride it all the way down to a 90%+ loss.

Almost everyone in this space has tried to squeeze out that extra bit of profit, only to end up round-tripping their entire bag back to zero.

We are approaching another massive window of opportunity to make life-changing money starting with the Space X ICO today and several major token launches coming later this year. But if you want to actually stay profitable and keep the wealth you build this time, you have to play smart.

Here are the exact rules you need to
hardcode into your trading strategy below

.: Set a 50% Portfolio Withdrawal Target: The moment the token hits a specific target, pull out half of your position. This guarantees you partially or fully recover your initial investment, taking the emotional weight off your shoulders.

.: Take Profits at Every 2X: Every single time your investment doubles, take a percentage off the table. Do not let greed convince you to hold out for an infinite pump—scale out systematically to avoid round-tripping.

Never Forget Numbers on a Screen Aren't Real Cash , Until you swap that asset into stablecoins or hard cash, your profits are just unrendered pixels on a screen.

Protect your liquidity and protect your peace of mind before the market decides to take it from you.

TGIF.

I’ve wanted to tell this story for years. Never had the courage. Here it is.

I turned a presale allocation into $80 million on $OHM. Today I have $500k left.

In 2021, I got a presale allocation in OlympusDAO, then aped heavily myself on top of it. The allocation got me in the door. My own conviction made me go all in. Staked everything. Watched it compound daily. By the peak I was sitting on $80 million.

Then I started spending like the money printed itself.

Private jets to Dubai because commercial felt beneath me. $40k weekends in Monaco. A garage full of cars I drove twice. Watches I never wore. I tipped $5k at dinners just to feel something. Every purchase was a flex for an audience that didn’t care.

The casino was worse. High limit rooms in Vegas and Macau. I’d lose $2 million in a night and laugh it off because the portfolio would make it back by morning. Until it didn’t.

When $OHM unwound, I didn’t sell. I doubled down. Then I leveraged. 5x, then 10x, trying to trade my way back to the peak. Every liquidation felt like a personal insult, so I’d open a bigger position. I wasn’t trading anymore. I was gambling with a different interface.

$80 million became $20 million. $20 million became $4 million. I told myself $4 million was still life changing money. Then I levered that too.

$500k. That’s what’s left.

Here’s what I learned the expensive way:

Unrealized gains are not money. I never had $80 million. I had a number on a screen and the arrogance to believe it was permanent.

Getting in early is a gift. I treated it like a skill. The allocation didn’t make me a genius. It made me lucky. I confused the two for three years.

Lifestyle inflation is a leak you don’t notice until the ship is underwater. The jets and cars didn’t kill me. The identity did. I became someone who needed to spend to feel like a winner.

Leverage doesn’t get you back to even. It gets you to zero faster. Revenge trading is just grief with a chart open.

Nobody at the table in Monaco remembers my name.

I’ve carried this story alone for years. Too embarrassed to say it out loud. But $500k is more than most people will ever hold at once, and I’m done pretending the past didn’t happen. The next decade is about building slow and keeping what I make.

If you’re up big right now, screenshot this. You’ll need it.

January will always come

You cannot get rid of January by tearing it off the calendar

That's how life is

Struggles, pain, sadness, sorrow etc must come.
And there is nothing you can do to stop it.

But you can work on yourself to handle them better

My favorite Jeff quotes from the Hyperliquid article:

"Losing is a pretty common experience, most people are losers. There’s usually only one winner."

“If you’re not the first person doing something, it’s probably not worth your time to be doing it at all."

“I think people are just a bit too soft in general”

"Be very confident you’re going in the right direction, and execute well on the step you’re taking right now, without knowing exactly where you’re going."

Find your obsession. Choose something worth dying for. Ignore everything else. Become monomaniacal. Sleep when you're dead. Eat when you must. Think about it constantly. Dream about it nightly. Wake up thinking about it. Sacrifice relationships for it. Lose friends over it. Let people call you crazy. Let them call you unbalanced. Good. Balance is for the weak. Mediocrity is for the many. Greatness demands sacrifice. Obsession is the price. Pay it gladly. Ignore the voices telling you to be reasonable. Reasonable men change nothing. Obsessed men change everything. Van Gogh was obsessed. Da Vinci was obsessed. They called them mad. History calls them genius. Find what makes you forget to eat. Pursue it relentlessly. Let it hollow you out. Let it fill you back up. Become the thing you chase. Merge with your mission. Disappear into your work. Emerge transformed. Or don't emerge at all. Better to burn out obsessed than fade away balanced. The world needs your madness. Give it everything

The worst part of being broke is having to deal with low quality life experiences just because you don't have a choice.
