I’ve seen this exact same playbook repeat over and over and over again through the years.
In the end, making money in crypto is relatively easy.
All you have to do is buy strong coins when nobody’s paying attention, when nobody wants them, when everybody is scared…
Hold them through the volatility (get ready for a rollercoaster of emotions).
And then sell them to the masses when they inevitably come back during euphoria.
That’s it.
In short, you have to think like a market maker, not like an NPC.
Anyway, you know what the real problem is?
Most people do the exact opposite.
They buy when everything is trending.
Then the moment there’s a dip — big pullback, some FUD, whatever, they get scared, they panic sell, and disappear.
Or worse:
They do buy strong coins early…
Then one month goes by… and they’re not rich yet.
“Oh my God… it’s been one whole month!
Why haven’t I 10x’d yet?!
Investing is a scam!”
So what do they do?
They get convinced by some clown that the only way to make money in crypto is by trading it.
Scalping.
High leverage.
“Buy my course to learn how”
And what happens?
1% of those people make money.
The other 99% get annihilated.
Because trading crypto — real trading, not hindsight paper shit — is no joke.
Then what?
They watch the cycle play out.
They watch their old coins make insane moves.
And they realize their best chance, the only thing they had to do… was understand the macro picture, sit on their fat ass and wait.
(We are seeing this playing out in real time)
That’s it.
That’s how you make money in this game.
You can try to outsmart the market…
But 99.9% of the time?
You’ll get f… ked.
Raw.
No lube.
So what’s the lesson?
Play the macro cycle.
Focus on what actually matters.
Don’t flip-flop.
Don’t stare at 3-hour candles trying to “predict the market.”
Focus on real stuff:
Macro policy.
Big-picture narratives.
Donaldo’s X account (lmao).
Things that move trillions, not peanuts.
And don’t get me wrong, if you do want to learn how to day trade I’m all for that.
I love trading as well.
But:
1) Learn from someone who’s actually doing it for a living — not someone selling a recycled TA course. TA ≠ Trading.
2) Only use a small portion of your capital for it.
Because if you go all-in and don’t know what you’re doing?
That’s a suicide mission.
So yeah… rant over.
Happy new $BTC BTC ATH — your shitcoins are next.
