Community is EVERYTHING. We want you 🫵🏼 Our founding cohort remains open for 2 more days. DMs are open, developers, security advocates, agentic automations builders, entrepreneurs, you’re all welcome to apply. I know it can sometimes feel like you’re building alone or you need to grow your network. Come to us! 🤝 We want to help secure the next generation of AI agents with Hermes Shield. Equity available for the outliers. Either drop a DM or apply via LinkedIn. Check below 👇👇👇
I’m putting together the founding cohort for Hermes Shield. Around 20 people who want to help us build the security layer for AI agents. I’m looking for people who have built agents, broken them, secured them, or spent enough time around them to know how dangerous unrestricted agency can become. AI/LLM engineers. Security researchers. Agent framework builders. Backend/full-stack engineers. Technical product and design. You’ll get access to what we’re building, run it against real agents, try to break it, help shape the roadmap and have genuine skin in the game through equity. Important: this is a founding cohort built around equity and future full-time opportunities. It is not a salaried role today. We’re early. That’s the point. Details + application below ↓

Bears would rejoice a pullback here. They’re aggressively short into the move up. And it’s not hedging. Got stopped twice today on my BTC hedges and stopped 0 times on alt hedges. Alts still haven’t caught up. I imagine we see some movement over the coming days if BTC stays stable. Long: ETH, UNI, SOL, NEAR Near still has some major shorts above. I imagine they’ll protect their interests.

This is why you should follow me if you don’t already. The I am one of the few data lead traders on this app. I spend close to $5,000 a month on collecting real data so you guys can trade around it. 🤝

Typical squeeze, people thinking stocks go lower and sentiment on X was calling 70s that’s typical. But this isn’t a typical rally it’s supported by spot and ETF. We go to 84500 before any significant pullback. Likely before next week then we chop down into FOMC

Market must have killed this guy. Stupid trading quite frankly and he blocked me lol. I don’t know a single pro trader that screenshots their pnl. Especially in that kind of size. Shameful stuff.

🧭 We believe the BTC cycle bottom is in. June low: $58.5k, -53% from the top Now: $83.6k Last 3 cycle lows came 364–406 days after the top. This cycle: 5 Oct – 16 Nov. We're in it. A year after US midterms: S&P 500 up 19 of 19 BTC up 3 of 3 So why do we hedge? 🧵

🌍 4/ The backdrop is mixed Nasdaq had its midterm-year drop early: -12.8% (Jan–Mar). New high 6 Oct, ~4% under it now. 5 days: dollar -0.4%, US 10y -10bp 1 month: dollar +1.5%, US 10y +12bp BTC seasonality is mild. Median Nov +7.6% (up 7 of 12 yrs), Dec -3.2%.

⚠️ 5/ What would make us wrong Past cycle lows: -77% to -85%. This one: -53% so far. Either the cycle got shallower, or the low isn't in. Near term: a daily close under 79.7k (Oct low). Big picture: a close under $58.5k. So we hedge. Coin by coin 👇 Not advice.

This was in 2024 when I was trading some crazy cross margin positions. I ended up getting liquidated on this if I remember correctly due to Solana dropping like a rock. Fun times back then. Was a casino, I did not care much for loosing big. No discipline what so ever. Fun times though.

Today’s close is key. 1. 3D BB has held multiple times 2. ETF flipped positive at the lows 3. 3D stoch reset 90,000 calls are in play after today. With earning, FOMC, and Mid terms ahead of us. Remember support is support. Look how many ‘CT’ traders told you to short the bottom. If you follow real traders, with professional experience you might learn a thing or two. Just saying. Happy hunting.
We survived another test below. Sundays close decides it.

You can literally tell the novice traders from the good ones on this app. Daily I read just pure nonsense yet they’ve actually got follow, views and likes. No wonder they said in the recent study that it’s now 95% of traders loose money. Absolute shambles.
🚨 WINTERMUTE SHORT SELLING 🚨 Wintermute holds $69.6 Million in SHORT positions across $ETH, $SOL, $HYPE, $XRP, $DOGE & more. They have made over $177.7 Million in total profit now. Are they planning some BIG manipulation before the FOMC interest rate decision?

It’s pretty clear to me that ai companies aren’t profitable on their current business models. Might not ever be, but intelligence has many vast applications. Original thinking is being achieved and more is on the horizon. At this current moment better models and more compute get you to the point of better AI. But eventually the discoveries and new revenue lines will outweigh spend. Short term pain for a long term gain. And they have government backstop. That’s a guarantee IMHO. I think long term this will be one of the best performers. Of course lots of people are sceptical but intelligence is the business model and if you own the most intelligent system on the planet you’re valuation centres around this. Just a thesis but we’ve never been here before. My only hope is that they’re not forced to stop spending and slow the breakthroughs.

Forward-looking organizations are implementing 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗵𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀: mandatory human verification protocols, agent-generated code review trails, and architectural guardrails that prevent opaque dependencies from entering critical paths. These measures are being adopted before regulatory or liability frameworks crystallize.
