Polsia just raised $30M at a $250M valuation.
Approaching $10M annual run rate.
One Founder + AI. Zero employees.
Polsia runs companies autonomously.
It also ran its own fundraising.
I just showed up for signatures.
@scottmelker Tunnel 29 by Helena Merriman. People from West Berlin digging a tunnel into East Berlin. Way more interesting than it sounds, really blew me away.
Just pre-ordered @noahkagan’s new book Million Dollar Weekend launching Jan 30! Can’t wait to start my own million dollar business in 48 hours! 🚀 Grab it at https://t.co/iKhiR1nngx
I’m sure I’ll get trolled for this, but the way people have treated @kevinrose, @JustinMezzell, @akasteveyyy, and the rest of the @proof_xyz/@moonbirds team has been way over the line.
Criticism is fair, but the name calling and nastiness has been disheartening to see.
Dear followers, I have massive news for you.

Thanks for reading brothers, 2024 will be fire.
@IamZeroIka Best decision I've made in crypto was to join this newsletter. Fabulous calls, and excellent and deep teachings. Just in case anyone wonders if it's worth it😉👊
It's shill time.
No seriously, listen up fam.
On the 22nd of June, I launched my newsletter.
I’ve put in an insane amount of hours and, week per week, we arrived at 35 content.
These 35 newsletters aren't exactly what you might expect.
In retrospect, they're more like a book.
✍️ There are: ✍️
• Trading guides starting from scratch
• Taking profits methodologies
• Psychological analyses
• Altcoins reviews
• Updated market analyses + my operativity/portfolio
Substantially, everything I learned during these 7 years in crypto.
People who already joined also have benefited from very nice calls (a bit of luck combined with deep analyses 🫡🥷)
But the surprises aren't over.
I'm planning to create an interesting ecosystem around my newsletter (NDA at the moment) so more juicy things to come.
The link is pinned in the bio if you want to join it.
I don't promise you the moon, but I promise you deep knowledge. 🥷
The 2017 bull market raped me with violence.
But 2021 gave me a big revenge.
Here are 10 crucial pieces of advice I would give to my 2017 old me: (the 10th is the most important one)
🔸1. Projects don't cure cancer
Ah yes, the unshakable idea that my projects were “the ones”.
“They can't go down, look at the fundamental achievements”
Bulls***.
Tokens are tools for reaching financial freedom, not something to hold unconditionally because of great fundamentals.
This ain't the stock market (yet)
🔸2. Being upset is toxic
X account is flexing gains, Y account also.
You start being upset because you see them winning while you're not.
The worst way to embrace as it makes you feel FOMO and start making irrational decisions.
Visualize what they've achieved, understand how they did and plan your future moves.
Be happy for others' success.
🔸3. Activate Ninja mode
If you make big money, don't tell anyone you did.
Friends and people close to you will feel entitled to ask you for financial advice or even worse, money.
“You made a lot of money, come on, give something to me”
They will make you feel unfairly selfish.
Act in silence and protect your privacy.
You'll never know who's going to knock at your door.
🔸4. Exit strategy is a MUST
“Just a little bit more and I'm gonna sell”
These were my newbie words.
The reality is that it will never be enough, forcing you to hold for greed.
Set your targets, plan an exit strategy, and strictly respect it.
Hint: do it before planning entries
🔸5. Tribalism is a curse
“I don't invest in that token, it's a sh***coin, mine is better”
Given the cultist aspect that surrounds this space, making tribalism means renouncing potential profits.
If a coin looks good both from a technical and fundamental aspect, trade it.
Don't refuse it because of useless biases.
🔸6. Sell and move on
One of the biggest mistakes you can make is selling and constantly remaining in the market.
News and hype will create a death spiral in your head, forcing you to rush back into the market and chase green candles because you’re missing out.
Guess what?
You’re likely to give back everything to the market.
Once you sell, don't look back.
Disconnect everything for at least 2 weeks/1 month and then check how the market is going.
You'll remain pleasantly surprised.
🔸7. Technical Analysis isn't astrology for men
Contrary to popular belief, TA isn't “random lines on a chart”.
It's not a way to predict the market, it's a way to help you navigate it.
Without charts, you're just groping in the dark risking tripping.
You don't have to learn complicated aspects, but having a strong base will save your a**, trust me.
🔸8. Clean your feed
Having a feed without noise and distractions means having a clean mind, thus better decisions.
Remove from your feed accounts that:
• Create stupid hype
• Give insane predictions
• Constantly make list of coins with 10x/50x/100x potential
• Frequently shills 10 tokens per day (yes, they’re likely getting paid to do so)
The majority of things you read on X are lies.
🔸9. Filter the news
99% of the news is being released with a specific goal.
Most of them want to leverage your emotions to make sure you act in a certain way.
Bloomberg announcing BTC will go to 500K during a bull market.
Journals declaring the death of BTC during a bear market.
Market makers always do the opposite of big echo chambers.
🔸10. This time is dif..”
No, don't say it.
This time will be no different.
The industry changes and evolves, that's true.
But human psychology never changes.
Greed and fear have devoured people’s souls since the dawn of time and they'll do the same again.
Remember: hard times create strong men ~> strong men create good times ~> good times create weak men ~> weak men create hard times
You know what's my style.
You know that I don't like to create hype.
But I can't help thinking what will happen for altcoins in the future.
Those who are now reading this post and accumulate strong altcoins will liekly benefit a lot from this wealth-transfer.
Simply put, 3 charts are our compass.
🔸OTHERS🔸
Even assuming we will not break the previous ATH at 493B, from 170B (0.23) to reach it, it's a 190% upside.
A 190% upside on the altcoin sector alone, means already huge multipliers.
Literally Santa Claus telling you that you've been a good boy and dropping Christmas gifts every day.
The main consideration here, is that with new Bitcoin highs, we'll also see new highs on OTHERS.
2T is, in my opinion, an achievable target.
2T is, especially for fresh charts, a boost that our mind can struggle to understand.
🔸OTHERS D. 🔸
Further confirmation is given by the logarithmic OTHERS dominance chart.
The average bear market period lasts 600 days.
The average bull market period lasts 700 days.
As you can see, the overall trend is up (dotted trendline)
We already broken the downtrend on 14th August and we're currently transitioning into the bull market window.
30% is my top target.
🔸Bitcoin Dominance 🔸
If you're folowing me for a while, you know how much bullish I was on BTC D as a natural cycle evolution.
Money always flows first in the strongest asset.
But at some point (56/58% if I'm right) the trend will reverse and wealth will be spreaded toward the altcoin space.
Given the macro dominance downtrend, we will likely hit new lows and I'm targeting the 29% area.
The altseason will be super juicy.
🔸Conclusion🔸
This post ain't made to make you FOMO or take irrational decisions.
A solid approach and risk mitigation are always the 2 key pillars in investing.
The aim of this post is to make you face the inevitable dump that will come with a positive attitude by looking at the long-term perspective.
Hold a few altcoins, don't rotate too much and have patience.
Things evaluated at millions now, we'll likely be evaluated billions in the future.
Filter the noise and stop looking at what others are doing/how much they're profiting. (most of the times they're just flexes and not real profits)
Always remember that everything will fall again at some point.
So take those profits and change your life when we will reach peak euphoria.
Your/mine projects will not cure cancer, they're just vehicles for reaching financial freedom.
🔸Bitcoin important update + my operativity 🔸
Bitcoin has melted the 40K resistance and some FOMO starts to flow into the veins of crypto plebs.
It's logical after what we've passed with the last bear market.
But let's see what's in the card for BTC.
Now it is approaching the 42K which constitutes an important level, corresponding to the 0.5 Fibonacci.
If we break above 42K the next area of interest is 48K (0.618), as posted plenty of times in my last updates.
The trend remains strong and confirmed from the weekly RSI which is still above 70, that's a fact.
However, there are 7 weekly candles in a row and this makes me think.
🔸USDT D. correlation 🔸
An additional and insightful view comes from the weekly USDT D. which has broken the 520 days range and currently sitting at the 5.95% support.
What I can expect if Bitcoin decides to shot to 48K/50K is USDT D. reaching 4.80%, what I identified as a key level.
You can see the strength of that area by checking the multiple taps made by USDT D and that's why I personally think it will not be broken at the first touch.
🔸What is Zero doing 🔸
Simply respecting my plan without any biases.
I know that the trend is strong and more potential upside is on the table, but I also know that I'm in large profit.
From 22K (my average) to 42K it's a +90% move, less or more.
And that's why I sold 70% of my BTC position.
I'm satisfied with what I achieved.
I feel zero FOMO and I want to reward myself for the hard work I made during this year.
I want to pay respect for the money I made.
If Bitcoin decides to move more, I'll sell the other 30%.
If Bitcoin decides to go down, I'll compound later.
"What if Bitcoin grinds WAY higher?"
I have my altcoins allocation ready and will find a way to eventually re-enter with the profits made.
I wish you all the best with your personal plan, whatever your choice will be.
But do not forget why you're here.
Profits are unrealized until you press the sell button.
🔸𝐁𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 🔸
As you all know, on the 25th October, I provided you with my plan for Bitcoin.
But I received plenty of requests to explain in a deeper manner why I'm targeting those specific levels.
In this post, I'll motivate my theory.
(Take some time to read it, I think It's important)
🔸𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭 🔸
I had a good feeling that 15K was the bottom but I wanted to be cautious and that's why I didn't bought the bottom.
Buying bottoms or selling tops isn't my prerogative, I exclusively focus on favorable risk/reward ratios.
That's why, when I spotted a potential sign of trend reversal, I started to slowly accumulate my Bitcoin position, resulting in a 22K average price, less or more.
It was the 19th of January.
https://t.co/2Dj1VoijNX
I can thus be satisfied, despite not 100% accuracy.
🔸𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 🔸
During the whole year, Bitcoin has always respected the bullish structure, creating a healthy structure made of multiple HH/HL, also successfully retesting the HTF support.
While that price action could have been interpreted as a recovery one, the break of 532 days range (bear territory area + recover area) has totally shifted the structure.
In fact, Bitcoin has broke above the May 2022 highs at 32300, transitioning in what I believe is the pre-bull zone.
🔸𝐂𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬 🔸
So here we are at the current days, with Bitcoin that is moving inside the 35K/38K range which brings to 2 scenarios in my opinion:
- A move down to the 30/32K area, then up
- A move up from these levels or 35K ones heading toward 40/42 and then, potentially to 48/50K.
That's my main idea.
🔸𝟒𝟎/𝟒𝟐𝐊 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝟒𝟖/𝟓𝟎𝐊? 🔸
Why I'm targeting those levels?
Because of many aspects, to be honest.
1⃣ First of all, those zones are where the price got rejected, where the price found support or they have been used for grabbing liquidity to push the price higher.
The red circles I drew clearly highlight them, so it makes sense from a stuctural point of view targeting them.
2⃣ Secondarily, because of the Fibonacci
In this logarithmic Bitcoin chart, you can see the last 3 cycles with the Fibonacci levels plotted.
𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐞𝐞:
- During the 2016 mid cycle rally BTC hit the 0.5 level and rose near the 0.618 before correcting a 40%, less or more
- During the 2019 mid cycle rally BTC hit the 0.618 and deviating above before a drop of 70% less or more, due to the COVID black swan
- During this uptrend, BTC is rising exactly toward those levels: 0.5 and 0.618.
If my plan is correct, it should, after reaching those levels, retesting the 32/30K zone resulting in a -30/35%
before transitioning into a new full bull market.
That's why I'm planning to sell toward those areas.
What if my plan isn't correct and Bitcoin shoots more?
Upon reflection, a close above 48K, would probably send Bitcoin to another huge bull move, probably above the past ATH.
I don't care.
With my average accumulation price, if BTC hits 48K I would be up 120%.
I would be disrespectful to risk to leave those money on the table due to greed.
Disrespectful for myself and also for those who would dream to make such gains.
Additionally, I'm still riding my altcoin positions, so independently of the outcome my move is a win/win one:
- Bitcoin shoots to new highs -> I have exposure to the market + compound in altcoins
- Bitcoin retraces -> I'll buy more
That's the Zero's plan.

I'm not going to claim being a genius on this one.
Nor am I going to claim clout with a made-up holy grail strategy for views.
Truth is, most of us that did this probably had a bit of luck involved.
As well as the advantage of being early in a cycle.
Entering in the early stages of a bull market and exiting near the end probably puts you ahead of 99% of the market without being the genius that picks calls left and right.
That being said there was a certain pattern that I followed that worked pretty well in all cycles I've been in.
Especially in bull season.
I quickly noticed making my entry in this industry 7 years ago that any project catalyst had a major effect on price.
Both bullishly or bearishly.
This let me to adopt the following play-book which to this day works marvelously most of the time.
𝐈 𝐰𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐦𝐚𝐣𝐨𝐫 𝐮𝐩𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝟏-𝟑 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐬.
Mostly this included:
- Mainnet release
- Smart contracts integration
- Product release
- Project rebrand
- Major upgrade or update
These types of updates were usually gold.
Ignore the minor updates like an ama or a small new version of an app.
It had to be a major release.
Now here's were things get interesting:
Price usually moves waaay ahead of the actual release.
Vice versa it also dumped when the actual release took place.
Think you are on time by buying right before the release? Think again.
It's necessary to buy the project at least 1 month and preferably 2-3 months before to catch the entire run-up.
The take profit part? 1 day prior to the launch event.
Don't do it after because you'll be met in the middle of the dump.
You want to frontrun others as many don't expect price to be dumping after the major event takes place.
It should have went up from here right? Truth is news builds up way more hype and engagement than the actual stuff.
Take the news away and most people actually care very little on what most crypto projects are actually doing.
𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐮𝐩𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐬?
This one isn't easy. Today we have calendar tools like coinmarketcal but they don't nearly cover everything.
I probably wasn't up to date on 80-90% of upcoming events in the market from specific projects.
But you don't need to!
I gathered as much info as I can from browsing the web, asking around and just visiting roadmaps and made a list.
You can't keep track of 10 000 projects and you can't catch them all.
Keep track of those that you do follow and know to play them well.
Important to note: unknown sh*tprojects that absolutely no one cares about doing a major release won't move price at all.
Ignore those because even catalysts can't save these projects. They do need to be relevant.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬?
You know exactly if you still need to keep holding or to take profit.
Many people wonder if they need to sell or continue to hold.
An upcoming catalyst soon was always enough to keep price up regardless how many x's it already made.
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫?
I have talked often that I rotate a lot in a bull market.
This is exactly why.
Once the major catalyst is over I sell and move on to another with the same play-book.
Do the projects drop dead after the catalyst? They don't and sometimes they actually had another run.
But they didn't outperform anymore (in a bull run everything still runs).
That's the difference between achieving a 100x and a 2x.
Nova out 💙

❗Important Announcement ❗
Zero constantly thinks about what he can do more for the community.
That's why I'm glad to announce that I’m preparing my first series of X-spaces called “𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭”.
The goal is to create a virtual place in which:
• Discussing the market
• Embarking prominent personalities/creators from the space
• Feeling closer to the community
• Sharing ideas
• Educating people
I think crypto spaces are severely undervalued and unused, that's why I decided to launch this new format.
The first episode will include some super interesting figures with multi-year experience in financial markets.
When?
Soon (but not the soon you hear from projects that means never)
Since I have tons of content in mind and a lot of work to do I want to prepare it in a better way possible.
In hopes of seeing you numerous, leave a reply/repost to spread the word.
Oh, and don't crucify me in advance for my Italianized English. 🥶🍝
The next few years will be probably very rewarding for those who accumulated and are accumulating right now.
But never forget:
• The sacrifices you made
• The gratifications you have delayed to invest and buy more
• The people who laughed at you for investing in this jungle
• The red dildos you faced
• The FUD you strongly overcame
At some point, all of these efforts need to be translated into something tangible: profits.
• For a vacation
• For spending more time with your beloved ones
• To improve your life
• To have a solid cash reserve in these difficult times
• To launch your own business/project
Feel blessed to have the opportunity to participate in this market which provides insane gains.
Most people are stucked in a job they hate, working for a minimum wage and constantly living under pressure from a boss that tortures them as Freddy in “Nightmare”.
Big or small money, make them count once the moment comes.

I think this is important, take some time to read it or bookmark it for later fam, it might be very helpful. 💯
As I wrote in one of the latest posts, Bitcoin has demolished the 32K which was an important key level, corresponding to 2022 May highs and also 0.5 Fibonacci level.
When these types of levels are broken, they usually lead to further expansion, especially if we consider the fact that 32K has been a multi-month resistance (7 months)
Closing above this resistance on HTF (weekly/monthly) can clearly be seen as a very strong sign.
We're now approaching 35/36K, an area in which there's a lot of liquidity and that can have 2 outcomes:
• Act as a temporary resistance that should give the space for Bitcoin to reload more before the next move (likely)
• Squeeze more to fuel some shorts
🔸 𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐡𝐢𝐭?
40/42K, corresponding to the 0.78 Fibonacci level.
This is where I'm planning to scale out a % since I think it will be a rock-solid resistance, also proved by the past price action (see red circles)
In the eventuality that the FOMO will be high (can expect it since the ETF narrative is very strong/echo chamber?) I'm willing to consider a further extension to 48K and slightly above, maybe with a little deviation.
That's where I scale out another %.
From these levels (40/42 or 48K) I'm expecting a retest of 30/32K which would be definitely healthy for the whole structure and perfectly aligned with past cycles' retracements (25/30%)
Then, in my opinion, we should see a ranging market where Bitcoin establishes strong support over that key area until the next halving and subsequently the real part of the bull run, the expansion phase.
🔸 “𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐲, 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫?”
No, for how much I desire a fast bull run I don't believe in it and think we’ll see the classic 4 year cycle. (still perfectly working from a time perspective)
But, as I always promoted, being willing to accept each potential scenario is what makes you profitable and not biased.
That's why I’ll always maintain a long-term holding independently.
Market goes parabolic? Fine.
Market retraces? Fine, I'll compound more.
This should help me to have a win-win situation.
🔸 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐜𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐬
It's way too early to talk about altseason since all the capital is flooding into Bitcoin and the dominance is trending higher as Superman when he takes off.
Yes, we're seeing interesting altcoin pumps across the space (mostly from fresh charts/projects) but a full-force altseason will likely happen in the future, it's too premature at this moment.
In any case, accumulating prior 4/6 months to the halving has always been a rewarding strategy, and that's what I'm slowly doing alongside my BTC position.
🔹 𝐓𝐨 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞
We cannot assume that all of our trade ideas will be perfectly executed.
The market will always try to f** us in ways we cannot even imagine.
But applying a simple concept of playing both sides ensures our profitability and control over this jungle.
What if the ETF narrative is being used as a liquidity attract tool in order to dump to retails?
If you think about it, this market is still unregulated and manipulated.
What if not?
Protect your capital.
Adapt or die.
