18 days ago, i decided to start to lock in on my @fomo wallet.
https://t.co/zVEqo86cWl
Idea was simple, start with what i had = a 1300$ dead bag, sell it and start again a new run.
One goal = to see if i became a washed unc boomer or if i can still trade.
------------------------------
A) Result :
In 18 days => from 1300$ to 94 300$ (+ 3800 withdrew)
B) Trading plan :
When i start a new wallet and want to complete a challenge, i often divide my trading strategy in differents steps.
1. Start [1300- 2500] = try to do some quick fibo plays
-> Goal here is to find some fast flips.
Either the coin having the whole space attention / some fast crash candle.
(like we got ystd with SI)
2. Most boring and difficult step [2500 - 20 000] = a mix of fast flip / early plays / conviction bottom (expecting quick reactions)
For me, it's the most awfull step, since the winrate will be low asf.
-> Goal here is : to stack liquidity with fibo / fast flip plays -> Try some early plays for good X -> Try some conviction bottom.
But main issue here = the amount of L plays are big = you'll often need to cutloss everything when you feel the L unrealized have an impact
3. Easiest step [20 000 - 250 000] = More conviction bottom flip + few fast fibo plays to stack liquidity.
-> Goal here is to manage the liquidity to be able to be fully here when a good opportunity happens.
Early plays are less and less interesting, since you don't want to have too many coins in your wallet.
=> Since i've started the 3rd step => Winrate around 93% .
Notes: I know this post won't sell same dream as the Ms PNL unrealized you'll see on twitter, but imo, it's this kind of trading that is the most sustainable on the long run.
i've killed 10 products before one made money.
fewer features, real marketing, actual customers. here are 6 lessons behind going from 10 dead products to my first $500 MRR:
1. stop adding features nobody asked for.
my first 5 products died because i kept building stuff i thought was cool. redditgrow does one thing: find people on reddit who already want what you sell. i stopped adding and started listening.
2. charge money on day one.
i used to launch everything for free "to get traction." all i got was 200 signups who never came back. when i removed the free tier on redditgrow, i went from $0 to real MRR in weeks. free users don't give feedback. paying users do.
3. go where people are already complaining.
i stopped posting on product hunt and started reading reddit threads. people literally type "i need a tool that does X" every day. i just showed up and replied. that's how i got my first 10 paying users.
4. building got cheap. selling didn't.
with vibe coding i can ship a product in a weekend. but getting one person to pay $29/month still takes weeks of real conversations. i spend more time in reddit comments and DMs than in my code editor now.
5. ship the ugly version.
redditgrow launched with broken onboarding and a landing page i wrote at 1am. the people who needed it didn't care about the design. they cared about finding customers. pretty comes later, revenue comes first.
6. talk to every single user.
i answer every support ticket myself. someone signed up 3 minutes ago and has a question? i'm there. that's how you learn what to build next. nothing replaces a real conversation with someone who just paid you.
10 dead products taught me more than any course.

SaaS is becoming easier to build with AI.
Which means building is no longer the moat.
What is important now?
- Distribution
- Creative marketing
- Founders' personal brand
- Audience attention
