With the $JUP drop upon us, I have seen a lot of mentions about @MeteoraAG DLMM pool (for good reason). The large volume and volatility will provide the perfect atmosphere for fee collection, but you need to have a strategy in mind if you want to use it to its full capacity.
Below are some single sided strategies you can employ to manage your JUP holdings and collect fees at the same time. You MUST remove your liquidity from the pool if/when your goal is achieved in order to avoid converting back into the less desired asset.
JUP to $10
- HODLing with Diamond hands
- Don’t touch DLMM
Believe JUP pumps hard
- Weighted DCA out of JUP
- Supply JUP in Bid-Ask Strategy; allows for significant price appreciation before exit
Believe JUP price increases but may bounce around
- Linear DCA sell out of JUP
- Supply JUP in Spot strategy; uniformly distributes liquidity across your range and exits linearly on the way to your target
OR
Believe JUP dips after claim but not sure how much
- Linear DCA Buy into JUP
-Supply USDC or SOL in Spot strategy; will uniformly buy the dip for your specified price range
Believe JUP price dumps hard from airdrop sellooors
- Weighted DCA buy into JUP
- Supply USDC or SOL in Bid-Ask strategy; capitalizes on large dips to give lower cost basis entry
There are more exotic ways to use Meteora but these should cover most of the scenarios needed for executing your plan and earning fees in the process. Regardless of the strategy you choose, it should be a fun week for the Solana ecosystem.
To provide a counterpoint to some of the negative sentiment on the timeline, we are living in one of the most exciting times of our lives right now
The chaos when the old world starts to fall apart to make room for the new one is THE period of maximum opportunity, especially if you're a resourceful young man
Stability is overrated as the old system was already broken anyways and completely captured by the winners of the previous generation
So embrace disruption
The future is beautiful
Will second this as a fellow unc - yes fiat currencies will continue to inflate away your purchasing power over time but nothing erases purchasing power faster than holding onto 6-7 fig positions of shit like Troll and PayAI
Here’s what you should actually do if you suddenly run up a large amount of money:
You will most likely never see this much money again
Don’t fuck it up
The interest alone, or a few years of compounding is worth far more than you realise. If you’re lucky, you can live off interest alone. $3,000,000 at 5% a year is 150k PA. Even getting to half that amount is 75k PA for literally doing nothing
Lock the majority of the money down first (high yield savings account, no withdrawals, no impulsive spending). Put tax money aside immediately
Clear out every high interest debt and don’t take on new ones. People with 500k net worth are asking me if they should spend 100k on a car. No. Do not do this. I absolutely love supercars, but I drive a Kia Sportage
Build 6–12 months of emergency savings
Buy a home if the numbers make sense (they usually do)
Build a real budget: calculate your annual costs, your net worth, and how much interest you generate each year, are you spending more than you’re earning? Track your costs monthly so you always know where you stand
Once you're grounded put the bulk into long term investments (ETFs, super, index funds)
Keep a small liquid stack for opportunities
Don’t let lifestyle creep drain your future. Just do what you usually do. Clout is worthless
Set up proper tax and wealth structures (trust, company). See a financial advisor for this. They also know how to reduce taxes in ways you never thought possible. Protect yourself, insurance, wills, estate planning, legal structure
Build a long term financial plan and actually stick to it
I'm sure there's a lot more you could add to this list, and please let me know. Being a responsible adult isn’t that glamorous but it keeps you from going back to work
I do not want to go back to work

@gr3gor14n Might have been better served a few months ago but hopefully some people listen to the wise unc
Estate planning severely underrated and not as expensive as people think
@gr3gor14n@ShockedJS Finally leveling up as an unc
Been a hobby of mine for awhile and it is very satisfying making things and there are endless tools you can convince yourself you need
