Crypto changed my life.
I was fat, lonely, insecure, living in my mum's basement, and working a mediocre job.
Then I discovered crypto.
Now I'm fat, lonely, insecure, living in my mum's basement, and have a crippling gambling addiction.
The real crypto cycle is this:
1) A few people preach BTC Dominance and talk about good ways to invest in crypto long-term.
2) Altcoin gurus that promise alt season each and every day mock anyone who does not buy into their shitcoin narrative and tells them to "have fun staying poor."
3) BTC.D goes higher
4) The same gurus then act like they are the victims and go on emotional tirades on X and on youtube trying to get people on their side. They claim that the "toxic BTC maxis" are "dancing on their graves."
The "toxic BTC maxis" learned the hard way once upon a time, and most are just trying to help others see the light.
Don't shill shitcoins and then act like a victim anytime they drop.
Altcoins are like penny stocks. Most go to zero. It is quite literally a shitcoin casino. If you are going to use your platform to promote gambling on shitcoins, don't get offended when the casino takes your money.
Own it, self-reflect, learn from your mistakes, and move on.
When Trump causes these kinda meltdowns, a lot of people get hurt
What makes these especially bad to me though is that every time it happens he has infinite people front run the news to take advantage of it
It's so disgusting
After 30 years of trading, I learned I wasn’t built for short-term trades, results were mixed, and it took me 15 years to accept that.
What I am decent at is spotting emerging trends, reading sentiment, and staying patient. So I shifted to getting in early with size and riding trends.
My point is, play to your strengths. Don’t just chase random ideas (including mine) on social media, use them only to complement your own strategy/strengths. Be selective. If you don't know your strengths or have a real strategy, find it first, b/c you're pissing in the wind.
I honestly think we're living in somewhat good times with minimal conflict violence and war
But at the same time we're now able to see everything bad that happens everywhere the second it does and I think that fucks with us more than we realise
It makes the world a worse place by making us all assume the world is bad
It's not, and we have it really good. Let's not ruin that by consuming negativity daily until everything turns to shit
You’ve spent 2.5 yrs thinking about how you’ll handle the cycle peak. What you’ll do and won’t.
And you’ll throw it all out the window once mania takes control.
Admittedly, there is a lot going on with this chart.
But if you look carefully at it, you'll see that #Bitcoin prints the same pattern each post-halving year.
