First and last time I talk about this topic, but since a lot of you have asked where Iāve been, I think you deserve some context.
I disappeared from here for almost a year.
Not because I left the magic internet money industry.
Not because markets got boring.
And definitely not because I had nothing left to say.
I simply reached a point where real life became more important than being online.
At first, the reason was simple.
I wasnāt inspired anymore.
Posting every single day started feeling forced.
Something that used to come naturally slowly started feeling like an obligation.
And since I donāt need X to survive (and generally try to spend my life doing things I genuinely want to do) I eventually asked myself:
Why am I forcing something that no longer adds anything to my life?
So I stopped.
I stepped away from social media and started living more in the real world.
I traveled.
Spent time with my family.
Worked on a lot of things behind the scenes.
And gave myself something I probably needed more than I realized:
Space.
Eventually, though, I started missing this place.
I spent years of my life here.
Sharing ideas.
Talking to people.
Building relationships.
Documenting the journey.
So there was a point where I genuinely felt ready to come back.
But the universe had other plans.
Without going into details (one day Iāll tell the full story and everything I have done will make a lot of sense), life punched me in the fucking face harder than I couldāve ever expected.
Suddenly, everything changed.
Social media didnāt matter.
Posting didnāt matter.
Growing an account definitely didnāt matter.
I had things happening in real life that required my absolute and undivided attention.
So I disappeared again.
The first time, I chose to leave.
The second time, I had to.
I needed time alone.
Time to deal with things.
Time to rebuild myself.
And that process took much longer than I expected.
My life still isnāt perfect today.
But Iām finally in a much better place.
And somewhere along the way, I started missing this part of my life again.
So last week, I came back to Instagram.
This week, it was time for X.
And somehow, in perfect timing, one of my favorite tokens decided to skyrocket the exact week I came back, lmao.
Since Iāve already seen some comments about it, though, let me make one thing very clear:
My absence had absolutely nothing to do with the market.
People who have followed me for long enough already know this.
I was here every fucking day during the bear market before the 2021 run.
I was here after it.
Iāve lived through enough cycles to know that when markets become painful and nobody gives a fuck anymore, thatās usually when you should be paying the most attention.
And even while I wasnāt posting publicly, I never stopped living in the trenches.
I kept researching.
Investing.
Trading.
Accumulating some of my highest-conviction positions when nobody cared about them.
And sharing the journey privately inside WiFi Money (link in bio, subtle shill lmao), which genuinely became a second family during my absence.
The people there know.
I didnāt disappear from the game.
I disappeared from the stage.
Thereās a massive difference.
I simply wasnāt willing to perform online while real life demanded something infinitely more important from me.
Looking back, Iām glad I gave myself that time.
Because as difficult as this chapter has been, it changed me.
For the better.
And now, for the first time in a long time, I genuinely feel ready for whatever comes next.
I donāt know exactly where this chapter will take me.
Thatās part of what makes it exciting.
One last thing:
Over the past year, my DMs have been full of people asking where I was, checking on me, and genuinely wondering whether I was okay.
I saw them.
And I appreciated every single one.
Thank you all.
Anyway, glad to be back.
Now letās make some fucking money.
P.S.
āWhat stands in the way becomes the way.ā
One of the biggest mistakes I see people making in the magic internet money industry is that, the moment they start investing, investing becomes their entire personality.
And I genuinely believe this is one of the main reasons why so many people struggle to make significant money in this market, even when they manage to identify good opportunities.
Let me explain.
Investing, at least the way I approach it, should be a mostly passive game.
You identify something you believe is undervalued, whether itās a stock, a cryptocurrency, an index fund, or whatever else.
You do your research, develop a thesis, and allocate capital because you believe that, over time, the market will eventually recognize the value you see in that asset.
And then?
You wait.
Of course, this doesnāt mean you completely forget about your investments.
You still need to monitor relevant developments, reassess your thesis when necessary, and make adjustments if something fundamentally changes.
But for the most part, thereās not really much else you should be doing.
Meanwhile, you keep living your life.
You work on your business, advance your career, spend time with your family, take care of your health, travel, learn new things, and keep improving yourself in whatever areas matter to you.
Basically, you let investing remain one part of your life instead of allowing it to consume the whole thing.
Unfortunately, most people seem completely incapable of doing that.
They buy some magic internet money, and suddenly theyāre full-time crypto investors.
Every morning, the first thing they do is check their portfolio.
Then they open TradingView.
They start on the monthly chart, move to the weekly, then the daily, and eventually find themselves staring at the 4H chart trying to understand why their favorite token is down 5%.
And from that point, their entire mood starts depending on what the market does.
BTC pumps 3%?
Bull market is back.
BTC retraces 4%?
Weāre going to zero.
Lmao.
The problem with this behavior is that youāre turning what was supposed to be a long-term investment into an extremely emotional, active game.
And thatās where people start making all the mistakes that eventually destroy their portfolios.
They sell during corrections because theyāre scared.
They refuse to accumulate when valuations become attractive because the sentiment is horrible.
Then, when the market finally starts moving higher, they suddenly regain confidence and begin buying aggressively again.
They FOMO into assets that have already made significant moves, constantly rotate between positions, and change their entire investment thesis based on whatever happened over the previous 24 hours.
And the funny thing?
Sometimes these people actually bought the right assets in the first place.
They simply couldnāt leave them alone.
Iāve seen this happen countless times over the years.
People identify genuinely interesting opportunities, accumulate them at decent valuations, and then spend the following months obsessing over every little price movement.
Eventually, they get impatient.
They convince themselves that nothing is happening, that their money could be doing something better elsewhere, or that another token is about to outperform their holdings.
So they sell.
And sometimes, a few weeks or months later, the exact same assets they spent so much time accumulating start going absolutely parabolic.
Without them.
All because they couldnāt tolerate the waiting.
And this is something I think a lot of people underestimate about investing.
Being early can feel exactly like being wrong for a very long time.
Just because youāve identified something that you believe is undervalued doesnāt mean the market has to agree with you tomorrow.
Sometimes it takes months.
Sometimes years.
And if youāre spending every single day staring at the 4H chart, those months are going to feel like a fucking eternity.
On the other hand, Iāve also seen people make genuinely life-changing money by doing something much simpler.
They researched properly, bought assets they had conviction in, and then simply allowed their thesis to develop over time.
Of course, they still paid attention to the important things.
But they werenāt constantly interfering with their positions because BTC had a bad Tuesday.
They understood that there are periods when the best thing you can do with an investment is absolutely nothing.
And honestly, I think this is particularly relevant to the market weāre experiencing right now.
For the past few weeks, BTC has been moving sideways, and every little move seems to completely change peopleās expectations.
One day everybody is convinced weāre about to break higher.
The next day BTC drops a few percent and suddenly the entire timeline starts talking about another bear market.
Then BTC bounces and everybody becomes bullish again.
How the fuck are you supposed to maintain a clear investment thesis if your opinion changes every time the market prints a couple of candles?
Personally, Iām still bullish on BTC and the broader market.
Until proven otherwise.
Could BTC break some important levels and go significantly lower from here?
Of course.
And if that happens, Iāll reassess the situation accordingly.
But Iām not going to spend every single day stressing over whether the next move is going to be 3% higher or 5% lower.
If the market gives me attractive opportunities and I have capital available, I can accumulate more.
If it starts moving higher, great.
My existing positions appreciate.
And if somehow my thesis gets invalidated, Iāll deal with it.
Thatās all.
No need to make this shit more complicated than it already is.
And one last thing, because I think itās important.
Investing and trading are two completely different games.
When Iām day trading, of course Iām paying attention to the LTF, looking for setups, managing positions, and reacting to PA.
Thatās literally the job.
But when I invest in something with a multi-month or multi-year horizon, why the fuck would I manage that position based on what happens on a 4H chart?
It makes absolutely no sense.
If youāre investing, give your investments the time they need to develop.
Have a plan for accumulating, know what would invalidate your thesis, and most importantly, know how youāre going to take profits when the time comes.
Then go focus on something else.
Build your business.
Make more money.
Improve your health.
Spend time with the people you love.
Do whatever makes your life better.
Because, at the end of the day, the whole point of investing is to eventually give yourself more freedom.
Not to spend the next five years being mentally enslaved by a fucking portfolio.
Thatās it.
Stop overcomplicating things.
As always, my money is where my mouth is.
Letās revisit this @arc thesis in a few weeks.
š¤ Made with AI
āTake profits, not screenshots.ā
A lot of you seemed to like this āquoteā I shared yesterday, but I want to add some context because I donāt want the message to be misunderstood.
First of all, I know it sounds like a meme.
But itās far from that.
Itās a simple ātrickā that can literally save your ass when the time comes.
So take it seriously.
Also, let me clarify one thing:
Iām not telling you to start taking massive profits right now.
That would make absolutely no sense.
This was a reminder for the future.
Because if we eventually get the insanely bullish phase weāve been waiting for, things are going to move extremely fast.
Some altcoins could reach ridiculous valuations almost overnight.
We just saw a glimpse of that with $QNT.
And when that starts happening across the broader market, you need to already know what youāre going to do.
You need to have a detailed plan.
Right now, most of the altcoins on my watchlist are still sitting inside the same accumulation ranges theyāve been trapped in for years (or have barely just broken out of them).
Many are still 80%+ below their previous ATHs.
So no, Iām not telling you to randomly one-clip your bags at depressed valuations just because they printed a couple of green candles after the apocalypse.
Iām simply reminding you to have a plan before you need one.
Because most people donāt.
They spend months (in this case, even years) researching and accumulating their favorite assets.
Then one day, those assets finally go parabolic.
Their portfolio starts printing numbers theyāve never seen before.
And suddenly, emotions take over and ātake profitsā doesnāt even cross their mind.
āThis will go higher.ā
āIāll sell at the top.ā
āOne more 2x.ā
āIāve waited three years for this PA. Why would I sell now?ā
Then the music stops.
The market turns aggressively.
They hesitate.
They convince themselves itāll come back.
They keep waiting.
And eventually, they round-trip a life-changing amount of unrealized profit.
I know because I did exactly that in 2021.
I made so much money on paper, so quickly, that I basically became āparalyzedā by it.
I was too focused on how much more I could make to appreciate how much I had already made.
Why take profits now when everything could go higher?
Why sell here when I could perfectly time the top?
The problem is:
You wonāt.
Almost nobody does.
And thatās the lesson I want you to learn from my mistake.
If we get the market weāve been waiting for (currently a lot of signs seem to be pointing in that direction) and your positions start breaking level after level, there is absolutely nothing wrong with selling portions into strength.
It doesnāt make you a āpaper hand.ā
It doesnāt mean youāve lost conviction.
And it doesnāt mean you need to sell everything.
You can sell 10% and let 90% run.
Sell another portion higher.
Recover your initial investment.
Take enough out to materially improve your life.
Keep a long-term bag untouched.
Whatever fits your situation.
There is no universal exit strategy.
But there should be a strategy.
And ideally, you build it before greed, euphoria, and life-changing numbers start influencing your decisions.
Then, when the time comes, you execute it no matter what.
Because remember why weāre here in the first place.
To make money.
Until you realize some of those gains, theyāre still just pixels on a screen.
Your portfolio saying +$10,000, +$20,000, +$50,000 or +$100,000 doesnāt change your life.
A screenshot of your portfolio ATH doesnāt change your life.
The money you actually take out can.
So if the bull market weāve been waiting for finally comes, enjoy every fucking second of it.
Let your winners run.
Make a fuck ton of money.
Stay exposed to the upside youāve spent years positioning for.
Just donāt become so obsessed with squeezing every last dollar out of the market that you eventually give everything back.
Little reminder that will save your ass when the time comes.
Speaking from experience.
š¤ Made with AI
Over the past few days, Iāve received a ridiculous amount of messages from people telling me that I was one of the reasons they originally bought $QNT back in 2019, 2020, 2021, etc.
Some of them just made ridicolous money.
And honestly, that makes me insanely happy.
Thereās something special about having conviction in something before the herd sees it, sitting through years where almost nobody gives a fuck, and eventually watching the market recognize what you saw much earlier.
That being said, Iām about to say something that some of the hardcore QNT community probably wonāt like.
I hope you took some fucking profits.
Donāt get me wrong:
I love QNT.
Iāve believed in it for a long time.
And yes, I still believe it will reach significantly higher valuations over the coming years.
But remember something extremely important:
Your profits arenāt really yours until you realize them.
QNT just did roughly a 6x in an absurdly short period of time.
After a move like that, taking absolutely nothing off the table because youāre convinced QNT will eventually reach $1k, $5k, $10k, $20k, or whatever your long-term target is, in my opinion, isnāt the optimal way to play this game.
And Iām saying this partially because I made that exact mistake in 2021.
I became so focused on the future that I forgot to capitalize on the present.
I made close to a 100x with QNT, and what I actually got out of it was basically peanuts because, in my mind, $400 per QNT was a retarded valuation if compared to its potential.
Obviously, QNT today is in a completely different position than it was back then.
The ecosystem evolved.
The partnerships evolved.
The thesis evolved.
But the principle remains the same.
Donāt become so obsessed with the destination that you refuse to collect anything along the journey.
You can believe QNT will eventually reach some ridiculous valuation while simultaneously acknowledging that a 6x, 10x or 15x is life-changing money for many people.
Those two ideas arenāt contradictory.
Thatās why my strategy going forward is extremely simple.
Iām mentally dividing my QNT holdings into two buckets.
One portion is there to be sold progressively into strength.
When QNT makes another insane expansion, Iāll take some profits.
If it keeps going, Iāll still have exposure.
If it eventually retraces brutally, I already paid myself.
The other portion?
Thatās my forever bag.
It sits in cold storage.
I donāt care about short-term PA.
Hopefully, eventually, the ecosystem allows me to stake it, generate yield from it, or otherwise benefit from holding it over the long term.
But Iām not building my entire strategy around some hypothetical future price.
This way, I get both sides of the equation.
I monetize the thesis when the market rewards me.
And I remain exposed if the thesis becomes significantly bigger than I ever imagined.
Because ultimately, we didnāt spend years researching, accumulating, holding through drawdowns and watching paint dry just to have a beautiful number on a portfolio tracker.
We invested to make money.
So enjoy the win.
Pay yourself.
Keep enough exposure to participate in whatever comes next.
And donāt repeat the mistake a lot of us made last cycle by believing that taking profits somehow means losing conviction.
It doesnāt.
Sometimes, taking profits is simply the reward for having conviction when nobody else did.
And again, to everyone who messaged me saying QNT changed their financial situation in some way:
Iām genuinely fucking happy for you.
But weāre not done.
Now itās time to make even more fucking money.

Absolutely insane.
ethereum:0x4a220e6096b25eadb88358cb44068a3248254675 basically 6xād in a matter of days.
But as far as Iām concerned, what weāre seeing right now isnāt the insane part.
The insane part was watching it go basically nowhere for five years straight despite what Quant has been building underneath the surface.
And the same can be said for a fuck ton of solid projects across this industry.
You could look at QNT as an isolated event.
āQNT holders got lucky.ā
āWish I bought that one.ā
Whatever.
And sure, itās definitely great to be a QNT holder right now.
But donāt think for a second that what weāre seeing with QNT canāt eventually be replicated across several other altcoins if market conditions remain favorable.
Thatās the bigger picture.
In my opinion, magic internet money remains one of the few major speculative industries where a lot of assets are still sitting at extremely depressed valuations.
There are legitimate giants in this space that have spent the last three to five years doing basically one thing:
Going sideways.
Or even worse, going down.
The real insanity was the price action we had to sit through.
Years of bleeding.
Then months and months of accumulation at levels nobody cared about; this industry was a ghost-town.
Every promising move getting rejected the moment altcoins started showing any strength.
And when you zoom out, many of their charts look surprisingly similar.
ATH in 2021.
Years of decline.
A long and painful accumulation around the lows.
Nobody cares.
Nobody talks about them.
Nothing moves.
Until one day, something does.
QNT is showing you what can happen when price finally escapes one of those structures.
And if you look around the market, there are plenty of other major altcoins still building similar bases.
Some of them are already starting to show signs of breaking away from those accumulation ranges.
Thatās why I kept saying:
Everything is boring until it isnāt.
Accumulation is supposed to feel boring.
You buy something you believe is undervalued, and then potentially spend months (or even years) watching absolutely nothing happen.
Thatās the price you pay for positioning before the move instead of chasing after it.
Because once liquidity starts properly flowing back into this market, things can change extremely quickly.
QNT just reminded everyone of that.
If the market eventually transitions into the second phase of a typical bull cycle (the phase where capital starts rotating further out on the risk curve and altcoins finally begin moving), I donāt think violent repricing across quality projects should surprise anyone.
Things would simply be returning to some form of normality.
This industry, and especially the altcoin market, spent years trading at depressed valuations while development continued underneath the surface.
It almost feels like the same large entities people suspected of suppressing prices while positioning themselves have finished accumulating and are finally ready to flip the full-send switch.
That doesnāt guarantee anything.
None of this means every altcoin is going to pull a QNT.
And it definitely doesnāt mean you should start randomly buying whatever hasnāt pumped yet.
Quality still matters.
But if liquidity and attention properly return, I genuinely believe QNT could simply be an early example of the violent repricing we may eventually see elsewhere.
And if we enter a proper speculative phase, I donāt think it will take particularly long for some of the strongest altcoins to start teleporting toward much higher valuations.
Thatās when the psychology changes.
Prices move.
Attention comes back.
People who ignored the market for years suddenly rediscover magic internet money.
Capital follows attention.
And the same assets nobody wanted near the lows become the shiny objects everyone wants after theyāve already moved.
Meanwhile, the people who spent the boring months researching, accumulating, and positioning themselves are already sitting exactly where they wanted to be.
Weāve spent a long fucking time waiting.
Researching.
Accumulating.
Watching paint dry.
GG to everyone who survived the boring part.
If you didnāt leave when nobody caredā¦
If you kept researching.
Kept accumulating.
Kept positioning while everyone else was calling the industry deadā¦
This is exactly what you were positioning for.
Now letās see if the market finally rewards that patience.
Things might finally be getting interesting.
You know whatās actually funny?
Every day it becomes more and more obvious what MMs have been doing for months.
If you still donāt see it, youāre sound asleep.
Ask yourself this:
How do you extract liquidity from the average trader and crush the conviction of long-term believers at the same time?
Simple.
You turn price action into psychological warfare.
Every extremely violent push up is shortly followed by an equal (or worse) push down.
Zoom out and look at BTC over the past 3/4 weeks.
What do you see?
BARTs.
Everywhere.
Straight up.
Straight down.
Again.
And again.
And again.
The latest one happened earlier today.
BTC ripped $3/4k in hours.
Shorts got liquidated.
Hope came back.
Then, almost immediately, price retraced straight back to where it started.
Late longs destroyed.
Everyone emotionally drained.
Once again; all by design.
And hereās what most people completely miss:
Even though MMs are loving doing that right now, this isnāt just about flushing high-leverage gamblers on both sides.
This absurd PA is mainly designed to mentally annihilate the last remaining Magic Internet Money believers.
Every time they think:
āOkay⦠maybe weāre back,ā
They get slapped an hour later.
Over.
And over.
And over again.
Thatās not randomness.
Thatās design.
This is how you shake out even the most stubborn bulls before the next obvious move.
They donāt even bother hiding the game anymore.
Insane.
Hereās what really puts things into perspective:
If someone had slept through the last 24 hours and opened the chart right nowā¦
BTC would be at the exact same price.
The exact.
Fucking.
Same.
Nothing happened.
But because most people live on lower timeframes, they felt everything.
Up $4k.
Down $4k.
Confidence destroyed.
Sentiment crushed.
Even though price went nowhere.
Thatās the trap.
So what do you do?
You zoom out.
You stop letting intraday noise fry your nervous system.
You focus on where this industry is going and on key macro dynamics, not on every 15-minute candle.
And before ending the rant, a quick reminder:
Weāre heading into monthly and yearly closes.
Volatility will absolutely be part of the equation.
Donāt fall prey to MM mind games.
I highly recommend you to spend the next few days as a āPA spectatorā and enjoy time with your loved ones instead.
Wish you a wonderful start of the week.
Over the years, Iāve seen the same pattern repeat itself.
People start businesses.
They struggle.
They fail once or twice.
They quit.
They go back to a ānormalā life.
Same with investing.
Same with trading.
Same with anything worth doing.
And a lot of this comes from the generation we live in.
This society glorifies cheap dopamine and instant gratification.
Everything has to work fast.
Everything has to feel good immediately.
They want insane results instantly.
But thatās not how any life-changing path works.
If you look at history, or if you talk to the most successful people you know, youāll realize something very simple:
They failed more times than most people ever tried.
Iām not trying to motivate anyone.
Iām just stating reality.
Instant gratification is the root cause of most failures you see around you.
But thereās another problem, maybe an even bigger one.
Most people are trying to make things work for the wrong reasons (aka average IG lifestyle guru).
If you want to make money just to buy watches, fast cars, and impress people you donāt even likeā¦
At the first real struggle, youāre done.
Your vision isnāt deep enough.
Your motivation isnāt strong enough.
At some point youāll ask yourself:
āWhy the fuck am I struggling this much?ā
āFor what?ā
āFor a car?ā
āFor a watch?ā
And mediocrity will suddenly feel very comfortable and almost a no-brainer.
On the other hand, the people who actually make it all have something in common:
They have big goals.
Not surface-level goals.
Not Instagram goals.
Real ones.
For me, itās simple.
I want to be free and live life on my own terms.
I want my mom and brother to never worry about money and experience the finest things in life.
And I want to become the best version of myself so I can take care of my future family the right way.
So when things get hard (and they do get hard all the time, itās just how life works), when Iām tired, frustrated, close to giving upā¦
I pause.
I breathe.
I think about those goals.
And every single time, I get goosebumps.
Thatās what keeps me going.
Because those goals arenāt optional.
Theyāre non-negotiable.
For me, itās not ānice if it happens.ā
Itās āit has to happen.ā
Failing isnāt an option, otherwise I wouldnāt be able to look at myself in the mirror.
And that gives you a level of stamina most people donāt have.
Because youāre not only doing it for yourself.
Youāre doing it for people you love.
People you care about.
Thatās extra strength.
And make no mistake; whether you want to be an entrepreneur, an investor, or a traderā¦
You will go through a fuckton of hardship before things work.
If your mindset isnāt right, you wonāt survive that phase.
So make this a priority going into 2026:
Sit down.
Write down real goals.
And yes, you can have material goals too.
āI want a Rolex.ā
āI want a nice car.ā
Thatās fine.
Just donāt build your entire life around shallow goals.
Dig deeper.
Because only when you dig deeper you tap into real strength.
And thatās what separates the ones who make it from the ones who disappear along the way.
Wish you a wonderful Sunday.
Yesterday I was in a taxi, on my way to Christmas dinner, casually scrolling X.
I wasnāt even looking for content.
And then I saw this guy.
Absolutely convinced he cracked the code.
His thesis?
āNobody wants crypto anymore.
The old crypto crowd moved to prediction markets and stocks.
Crypto is dead.
Nobody will ever come back.ā
And Iām reading this thinking:
You have to be completely sleepwalking through life to believe this, but the real comedy is thinking itās an intelligent take.
Let me ask you something.
In 2021, during the biggest crypto bull run ever (in terms of global adoption)⦠why do you think everyone suddenly loved crypto?
Was it the tech?
The philosophy?
The decentralized utopia?
Or was it simply because everything was going up like crazy and people dreamed of becoming millionaire instantly?
Be honest.
Do you think people were buying NFTs because they believed in the āfuture of digital artā?
Or because you could buy any random JPEG and 10x your net worth in two days?
Exactly.
Itās always the same story:
Greed.
Speculation.
Easy money.
Nothing else.
Now fast-forward to today.
Crypto PA has been nuked for 2ā3 years.
95% of the magic internet coins look completely dead.
No easy money.
No cheap dopamine.
So what happens?
People get bored.
People get tired.
People leave.
They chase stocks at all-time highs.
They chase prediction markets.
They chase metals.
They chase whatever just pumped.
Which is⦠normal behavior for (allow me the technicism) retards.
Because when money isnāt easy anymore, the majority canāt think beyond the next candle.
Meanwhile, behind the scenes:
Adoption keeps growing.
Infrastructure keeps improving.
Institutions keep positioning.
But retail doesnāt care about that.
Retail only cares after the chart goes vertical.
Same with stocks.
Same with gold.
Gold was āboringā when you could buy it for a third of todayās price.
Now itās at highs and suddenly itās:
āFinancial freedom.
Safe haven.
Smart money.ā
No, youāre just late to the party.
Youāre not investing.
Youāre chasing pumps.
And guess where you can still position before real liquidity comes and the upside actually happens?
Yes.
Magic internet money industry.
So all these people screaming ācrypto is deadā at the bottom?
They have zero understanding of capital rotation.
Zero understanding of macro & liquidity cycles.
Zero understanding of how money actually moves.
To conclude this quick Xmas rent:
If you want to sell your crypto here to chase stocks or precious metals after the monstrous uptrends they already had, itās your call.
But, in a few months from now, there is a high chance you will regret this decision.
So, before letting idiots on X convince you to abandon the most undervalued industry in this time in history, maybe (just maybe) do some research on what crypto can become in the next 5/10 years.
Look at the mega-trend behind it.
Thatās all.
Wish you all a wonderful Christmas.

I know how heavy this period feels.
I know how violent this price action looks when youāre inside it.
Your mind is probably crowded right now: fear, doubt, confusion.
And thatās not accidental.
This is exactly what ātheyā want.
They thrive when the average participant canāt think clearly.
When emotions take over.
When reality gets distorted.
You donāt know what comes next.
Your brain is searching for certainty.
And in that moment, it becomes easy to manipulate.
Thatās the game.
But hereās the truth most people miss:
Reality is not as broken as your emotions are telling you it is.
Reality is not as broken as they want you to believe.
It would take you two minutes to look at the full picture ā the data, the structure (two charts I shared), the macro environment, to clearly see that.
What you are seeing is a masterpiece of a smoke screen, perfectly orchestrated by wolves to get the most from whatās ahead.
Thatās how liquidity is harvested.
Thatās how the average participant gets annihilated.
When price moves donāt make sense, itās usually because theyāre not designed to make sense; theyāre designed to condition behavior.
Panic.
Capitulation.
Disbelief.
Exit.
And then, once most people are no longer around, continuation.
How to see through their lies and manipulation?
When your mind starts spiraling, thereās only one move that actually works:
Zoom out.
Detach from the noise.
Look at the data.
Look at structure.
Look at context.
Iāve been in your shoes more times than I can count.
Iāve felt exactly what many of you are feeling now.
And every single time, the moment it felt the worst, was when the manipulation was working best (now).
Leaving the market and "move on" always seemed like the best option.
And every single time, in hindsight, it would have been a giant mistake.
i'm not here to convince you, of course.
You are free to do whatever you want.
Just remember:
Markets donāt usually reward those who react to fear.
They reward those who can see through itš„
Back in alignment.
A new arc begins.
The work resumes.

Over the past few months Iāve been noticing a phenomenon that honestly pisses me off.
This new wave of āday trading gurusā (especially on TikTok and Instagram) purposely brainwashing young people into thinking that trading is the easiest career path in the world.
Open those apps and what do you see?
Supercars.
First-class flights.
Luxury hotels.
Designer clothes.
All presented as if they were funded by āsimple day trading strategiesā and a couple of squiggly lines on a chart.
And they want you to believe thatās the path.
That with some āsolid hard workā and their $997 mentorship, youāll consistently beat the market and reach financial freedom.
Absolute delusion.
Because if you dig even 2 centimeters below the surface, you quickly realize something:
95% of the money these people make doesnāt come from trading.
It comes from selling you something.
Courses, mentorships, signals, whatever.
And if you dig a little deeper, youāll see their entire āmentorshipā is 90% technical analysis.
Why?
Because the average person thinks TA is the missing piece.
They think learning patterns, indicators, and magic lines will turn them into the greatest trader alive.
They completely ignore the fact that TA is like 10% of the game.
The other 90% is psychology, discipline, emotional control, experience, self-awareness, risk managementā¦
Stuff you canāt learn from a 3-hour video course.
Stuff you only learn by getting punched in the face by the market repeatedly.
Thatās why it genuinely makes me sad to see young people fall for this scam.
Theyāre being sold a dream by people who donāt even trade.
And you know whatās even crazier?
Even in crypto, you have people pushing this narrative that day trading is somehow easier than long-term investing.
Which is a fucking joke.
I was watching an interview of @RaoulGMI recently, and he said something that stuck with me:
In decades of his career, he hasnāt seen many successful traders.
But every single multi-millionaire and billionaire he knows made their money by riding long-term trends ā not scalping 5-minute candles.
Read that again.
The big money is in mega-trends.
Not micro-moves.
And what are the two biggest mega-trends of our days?
AI and Crypto.
Thatās where you should focus all your effort and allocate the majority of your capital if you want to have the best chance to multiply your wealth.
Day trading should be a small portion of your portfolio ā a tool to maybe outperform short-term, stack some extra cash, and then throw that money into long-term positions.
But donāt ever fool yourself into thinking day trading is āeasyā.
So let me leave you with this:
Forget the yappers.
Forget the shortcuts.
Forget the āthree-month trader to millionaireā bullshit.
Look at what actually made people wealthy in this space:
People who understood Bitcoin early.
People who positioned themselves in Ethereum before the herd.
People who accumulated quality alts before the narrative caught fire.
People who rode cycles, not 5-minute candles.
Thatās where the life-changing money has always been made.
And thatās where it will always be made.
Your job is simple:
Pick the right trends.
Position early.
Survive the volatility.
Let liquidity do its magic.
Thatās it.
Everything else is noise designed to extract liquidity from the impatient.
In this market, the ones who get rich arenāt the hyperactive scalpers.
Theyāre the ones who stay sane during chaos, hold conviction when everyone else capitulates, and wait for that small window at the end of the cycle where everything goes vertical.
That tiny window pays for the entire journey.
So, all you have to do is:
Stay aligned with the megatrends.
Play them right and youāll never need a fake trading guru in your life.
Get rich slowly.
Get rich silently.
And let the idiots keep selling dreams while you collect reality š„
āBro, why are you so calm with all the madness thatās been happening?ā
To be honest, there were moments where I also got a little emotional.
The October flash crash, for example.
That was insane.
But for the most part, Iāve been chilling for one reason:
Iām playing a completely different game compared to most people.
Average person:
āMy bags havenāt moved much in two years. Iām doomed. Crypto is a scam.ā
Me:
āMy bags havenāt moved much in two years, but I know they will. Letās keep building.ā
Once you understand macro cycles, everything becomes crystal clear.
The main problem is that most people overcomplicate things.
My investment principle is simple:
I want to be in the market when the last euphoric phase comes.
Because thatās when the majority of money is made in that tiny window at the end of the cycle.
Thatās it.
What happens in between doesnāt concern me.
If the market goes up, fine.
If the market goes down, āoh, another opportunity.ā
So what have I been doing these past few years?
Alternating between chilling (when my favorite coins were too high) and accumulating (every time there was a crash).
And honestly (if you invest in solid coins), thatās all you need to make a crazy ROI.
Iāve seen 2017.
Iāve seen 2021.
And despite my mistakes, I was extremely successful in both runs.
Also, my portfolio back then was a fraction of what it is now.
So my thought process was simple:
If I made that kind of money then, what kind of money will I make this run if history repeats itself?
Or even just rhymes with the past two cycles?
Thatās the only question Iāve been asking myself.
And I know itās going to be that easy.
All I have to do is sit on my ass and let liquidity do the rest.
Because the deeper I look, the more everything keeps pointing toward the same pattern weāve seen before.
So why would I stress?
Why would I overcomplicate things?
Iām focusing elsewhere.
Iām making money elsewhere.
And since I invested properly, with a plan and risk management, I donāt need the money tomorrow.
I donāt need income from my portfolio to survive.
I just know itās going to be a hefty bonus in the coming months.
Thatās why Iām calm.
Thatās why, on every dip, I buy more of my high-conviction plays.
Iām not like the average person who sells in panic.
Iām slowly accumulating.
Thatās how you play the macro cycle.
Study.
Thatās all you have to do.
As the late Charlie Munger said:
āThe big money is not in the buying and the selling, but in the waiting.ā
And thatās where most people fail, the waiting phase.
Donāt be like most people.
Follow the clues š
