everyone expects capitulation to be over in minutes
but sometimes it takes hours
sometimes days
the point is, you don't wait for capitulation to feel over to start buying
you buy when everyone else is losing conviction
and i genuinely believe many will look back at this $SI capitulation candle and wish they had bought it
i know this is a VERY contrarian take, but i objectively believe $SI makes new ATHs and runs to hundreds of millions
the opportunity is always clearest in hindsight
Pumpfun is slowly but surely realizing its vision of becoming the main venue for anything interesting happening onchain.
Pump started as a simple bonding curve launchpad built to solve trust and liquidity for new launches.
Since then, we've shipped products like PumpSwap, Creator Fees, the Pumpfun app, Custom Pairs, and Holder Rewards which have all helped turn Pumpfun into the L1 for onchain trading, launchpads, and crypto native experiments.
Our existing infrastructure enables builders to create novel products with custom mechanics. Creator Fees give teams a potential revenue stream, giving them the flexibility they need during their early stage to invest in their own growth or, for example, to support tokens launching on their launchpad.
Creator fees have recently paid well over $20m per week.
For every pump launchpad update, aside from thinking about retail users, we consciously include developers as part of the conversation. Our goals are to make their lives easier, their work rewarding, and provide them with all the tools they need to succeed.
The more products that launch on Pumpfun, the bigger Pumpfun gets, and the more builders we can attract to launch on Pumpfun.
If you’re building anything in crypto and want to access instant attention and liquidity to support the long term success of your product, the best place to do it is on Pumpfun.
i'm interested in how @Pumpfun is positioning itself as more trading activity moves onchain
they've expanded from a token launchpad into PumpSwap and a mobile trading app, giving them exposure to both token creation and social trading
if those markets continue growing, there's room for the platform to capture more activity across its products
user retention and execution will be important as competition increases
The S&P 500 is up about 14% this year.
Its top stocks are up several hundred percent:
Sandisk: +578%
Moderna: +568%
Dell: +361%
Micron: +263%
Marvell: +224%
Anthropic’s Opus 5.5 Fast Mode is significantly more cost-efficient than OpenAI’s Sol 6.1 Ultrafast.
At roughly the same speed (280–300 tokens/s), Anthropic charges 33% less across input, output, and caching.
That’s 50% more tokens per dollar for nearly identical throughput.
Let that sink in.
$BTC Take a good look: this post contains one of the most important lessons anyone can teach you about trading.
Remember what I’ve said over the last few days, then look at what’s happened on the chart.
Even scalping trades, if you choose to do them, must be executed at precise entry points: that’s where they’re most likely to succeed and offer the most favourable risk-reward ratio.
That’s why you need to pay attention to every detail. You don’t enter trades at random, and you don’t chase the price.

Altcoin dominance has broken out of its nearly 5-year downtrend, with the monthly MACD in green for 7 consecutive months, the longest streak since 2020.
This is starting to feel a lot like the 2020-21 AltSeason cycle.
Out there, they clutter up your charts with a thousand lines, a thousand indicators and a thousand bits of rubbish to make you believe that trading has to be complicated.

You’ll already understand the market better than 99 per cent of the ‘gurus’ you follow.
That’s it. I’m not telling you anything else.
another reason why i am so bullish bitcoin here
last cycle it did not even make a new ATH against gold, if you believe in the thesis that $BTC is the best form of digital hard money then the gap between $BTC & $XAU is going to continue to close
gold is $30T, btc is $1.7T & the closer this gap gets the more it makes sense for governments to hold bitcoin on their balance sheets the same way they do with gold
$MU just crushed its Q4 earnings.
