“You think every time you achieve something or have success that you’ll be happy. But, then the goal posts move and they keep nudging a little bit further and further out of reach. What I’ve realized is, as long as you can find enjoyment in the journey, that’s the big thing,” @McIlroyRory
@AnthropicAI@claudeai you have materially ramped up the usage of tokens in the last few days. My pro plan now lasts 3/4 interactions where as before it was perhaps 10/12. Fix it please
I’ve survived three crypto cycles and I’m still bad at selling
2017 - watched my alts go 50x and then -50%
Thought I was early, turns out I was greedy
Held the top, missed the exit, blamed the market
2021 - tried to do better, but took some profits too late
I still believed there would be another pump
Instead I got Terra, 3AC, and months of pain
2025 - I said no more mistakes
I planned every sell level down to the dollar
I had dates, targets, timeframes, narratives
But the market doesn't care
There was no hype
No euphoric blow-off
No “this is the top” moment
Just rotating L1s, dying memes, failed perp chains
Every pump was sold into
Every breakout got front-run
Retail never entered
And now we’re here
BTC at 107k
TOTAL3 barely above 2021 levels
Most alts still down 60-80% from their highs
Feels like altseason ended before it started
So I’m stuck between 2 theories:
Either we’re early and the real altseason starts in Q4
Or this was it, a silent top, designed to trap everyone
Both are scary
Because one punishes early sellers
The other punishes believers
