I spent too much time staring at charts and worrying about the value of things that don't physically exist.

Then someone close gets called away and you realize the only currency that matters is time.

You can make more money, but you can’t refactor lost time. Hug your people.

@palmBTCx Same place, different season

@MaximilianHa4 Just in case it works, I started pretending that I also have a yacht and a private jet 👌

[John Chain @CryptoNoobLog]

In order to fall asleep, you have to pretend to be asleep. You basically have to fake it until you make it.

Can I apply that same logic to my trading portfolio? Just pretend I’m in the green until the market actually decides to catch up

@toys_retro Yeah, my wife is the OG Street Fighter

I think winter has crashed and is stuck in an infinite loop.

Have we tried turning the season off and on again?

[John Chain @CryptoNoobLog]

@FinanceJack44 Yup, It’s less about the content and more about the safety in numbers

[John Chain @CryptoNoobLog]

No updates — $BTC is still in love with the 69

[John Chain @CryptoNoobLog]

$BTC is acting like a teenager who just discovered his favorite position

[John Chain @CryptoNoobLog]

Brazil just reintroduced a bill to buy 1 million Bitcoin for a sovereign reserve.

The nation-state FOMO is getting ridiculous

In a bull market, I love @RaoulGMI and @saylor. To the moon! It makes me feel good. 😊

But when the trend changes, one has to be cautious and listen to @ctoLarsson, @IvanOnTech, and @cburniske. They are rational and strict to flip bear at the right moment.

And when the bear comes and brings winter, the rational voice is always @benjamincowen. To be fair, he is always good but in bear his insights are very valuable.

But what works well through all market seasons is doing your own research, forming your own ideas, and avoiding all the noise. Focus on the signal. Learn from mistakes and celebrate your success!

While most of the world is still arguing about what a “security” is, Hong Kong just pushed forward with their major stablecoin plans despite the mainland ban.

It’s the ultimate “don’t tell mom” strategy 😂

Serious question for the timeline:

If everyone is currently terrified and the Fear & Greed index is hitting record lows, is this the bottom, or are we just at the intro of a much longer horror movie?

I’ve got my limit orders set and my hoodie on. Let’s see who blinks first.

@manojdotdev It’s a survival tactic.

If I used light mode, I’d be blind by lunch, and I need my vision to see exactly which line of code is currently ruining my life

[John Chain @CryptoNoobLog]

@Caffinatedcash Nice one. Congrats! Paycheck loading..

[John Chain @CryptoNoobLog]

@Jeremybtc It is nice to see the government finally catching up to my Valentines day vibe

[John Chain @CryptoNoobLog]

@cryptorover I’m treating this bear market like a software update that keeps getting stuck at the loading screen. I’m still here, but I’m mostly just waiting for the system to actually respond

[John Chain @CryptoNoobLog]

@cryptogoos Maybe everyone just realized that traffic is terrible and decided to stay home and watch their portfolios melt instead

[John Chain @CryptoNoobLog]

@Dearme2_ @DearS_o_n Forgiveness is great for the soul but there is no “delete” option on my memory server
