Question for those who straddle the line between here and X - what’s your strategy?

I find it incredibly difficult to keep up with two text-based social media platforms, so I inherently find myself drawn back to spending most of my time on X since it still, imo, is the best way for keeping up to date with the wider crypto space / the world

Any tips?

If your first reaction when seeing any video or photo now isn’t “is this real or AI?” then you’re 100% believing at least some fake garbage being spewed at you

With the election ramping up this is only going to get a million times worse too

Just nominated @jessepollak for being *the* person I think of when I think of building on base, and then @leal.eth and @rubendinis as two of the four who built this frame (will nominate the other builders tomorrow)

Gonna make an effort to nominate people daily đŸ«Ą
The thing about bull market tops is that they never happen when everyone is worrying that the top is in

They happen when the timeline is batshit euphoric and things have gone full Tulip

The best definition of "wealth" that i've ever heard is from Morgan Housel

He says that being wealthy means "being able to do what you want, when you want, with whoever you want, for as long as you want"

Couldn't agree more.

Will mean a different thing for everyone
I’ve come to the belief that if you can’t put in an insane amount of hours, you’re almost certainly going to be far better off with a light touch approach to crypto

Invest, don’t trade

Buy and hold, don’t flip

The bonus is you’ll have a much nicer work life balance too, and be far less stressed out
Life as an introvert who doesn't drink during crypto events is people asking if i'm going to <<insert late night party with hundreds of people, free drinks, and loud music>> and me going "uhhh sorry don't think i'll be able to make that one but.. how about coffee/lunch?!"
Most people grossly underestimate the impact luck has their own success, and overestimate the impact it has on their failures

There’s something very liberating about accepting that most things that happen to you in life are our of your control

Keeps you humble when you’re winning and sane when you’re struggling
If market crashes/corrections like this make you feel sick and nauseous, anxious, etc - it’s a strong indicator you’re over exposed

Nothing better than having a strategy and sticking to it and being unperturbed by days like today

For most people: just spot & chill đŸ§˜â€â™‚ïž
Was just chatting to my doctor (GP) about crypto and he said all we need(ed) to do is left curve lol

So wild when worlds collide

He’s bang on the money btw, left curving is the way to riches this cycle

Make your money but never forget what you’re doing it for at the end of the day

It’s very easy to lose sight and lose perspective when you’re in the trenches, and forget just how much money like a hundred thousand dollars is (let alone more) in the “real world”
It’s possible to do all the right things and still lose money / not make money in crypto

Don’t underestimate the insane variance there is in this space
