@Trader_XO So you’re saying they were paid a lot in freely minted tokens then collectively pumped the price and exited before shorting and cashing out spot at highs
To even suggest swapping Bitcoin for ZEC near the highs because it’s a quantum-risk and privacy hedge?
That’s a difficult argument to take seriously.
And some people are treated as market sages, yet they come out with ideas like this.
You have to wonder whether conviction or compensation was driving the message.
Bitcoin is bitcoin - the only time to swap it or hedge out is when you believe the market has topped or at a major inflection point - or paying yourself.
You will continue to follow your strategy and use consistent position sizes..
Until one day you're scrolling through Twitter and some degenerate posts an insane gain on high leverage.
You'll brush it off... Until you see a couple more of these insane profit posts.
Eventually you feel the FOMO.
You full port into an asset because you want those same mega gains.
You're up 5%; you're a genius. This will easily do a 50% from here - maybe 100%.
You go for a walk. Only up 3% now. No biggie.
You take a nap.
Wake up - check - down 2% from entry.
It's okay, it'll bounce back.
You check every 10 seconds, you can't look away.
Down 1% after hours - it's fine 😬
Driving your kids to and from soccer practice. You're checking constantly.
At the dinner table.
During your kid's bed time routine.
You had movie night planned with your wife. You can't stop checking your phone.
Price hasn't moved in 3 hours and you're still checking repeatedly. You tell yourself to sell for a small loss but no everyone else is making huge gains, you will too. Just hold like they did.
You go to bed 2 hours late because you were checking price that didn't move.
You wake up an hour early. You're exhausted.
Down 5% pre market. You're sweating.
You can't eat breakfast. You don't want to talk to your kids.
You're checking price every 5 seconds you can't look away.
Down 8%.
Driving your kids to school; down 10%. You're checking while driving - you don't care about the dangers because your portfolio is down 10%.
Months of gains wiped away in less than 24 hours.
5 minutes until market open. Minutes feel like hours.
Your heart is beating out of your chest.
"If it bounces on market open I'll sell"
Boom markets open. Quick dip - but wait it's bouncing. Up 2% from the lows
"I can't sell this bounce it's going to keep going"
Bam down 8% more in seconds. You're down over 15% now - full port.
You panic you don't know what to do. You throw your keyboard.
You regret breaking your rules because of what you saw online. You're so angry. You start blaming other people for your mistakes.
Down another 2%, you finally panic sell.
-17% portfolio in less than 24 hours.
Stay consistent - don't let outside noise influence your decisions - always manage your risk.
I've seen many people wipe out weeks or months or even years of gains in an instant on one bad decision. You can't let this happen to you.
@solana@solana I've never been followed by a big account, I've been here for 5+ years.
Maybe I am just a delusional optimist but it's better to dream big and fail than not dream at all right?
Would love a follow by you ❤️
