1. seems retarded to not take 5-6 figs per month for tweeting
2. people shilling should disclose they’re being paid (followers need to understand the inherent COI; refusing to do this is where someone crosses from “paid shill” to “surreptitious grifter”)
3. anyone getting paid should still give honest feedback. If you ever ask me for feedback on a product (and friends/mutuals can attest to this) I will give you painfully honest feedback. Cause I want it to succeed
4. If you’re actively shilling your favorite bag, you’re in a VERY similar boat to all of these people
5. If I see Banks associated with a product, I immediately ignore it forever
What I'm surprised about today re: BTC liqs is how comparatively small they were. Guessing side effect of the continuous slow bleed we saw earlier as opposed to dramatic impulse down after initial war catalyst headline yday.
@ThisIsNuse @glu3sniffer plz eli5
oi down + vol up + liqs down == ppl rapidly repositioning ? bulk of orders from MM's & tradfi ? mysterious 3rd thing ?
Starting to get the hang of LCR challenge. It has broken my fear of skirting outside my hyper sensitive risk management.
Have learned a lot about myself, the markets and Capswan in the process.
I’ve tried to be as transparent as possible (over explaining how I see the market, expectations, identifying wins and calling out losses). But it’s difficult to keep up with — ESPECIALLY scalping during war / tariff headlines. As an example, yesterday I flipped L/S like 3-4x over the course of an 30? minutes because of incoming war headlines.
I think the James Wynn approach to public wallet is dumb (too easy to get tilted like that). I’m a peon so no one is going to hunt my liqs, but making public calls and being wrong while losing $ has a tilting effect. Can only imagine that’s intensified with a public wallet. Also don’t want to attract copytraders (or counter copytraders) cause think that ruins the experiment.
Having said all that, I would like to figure out the next level automated transparency. And then build that into Capswan (which is the impetus behind me doing all this as we prep to launch v3 this summer)
Closed out my SOL long earlier. Have other positions so not touching rn but think SOL is a short soon (purple line is old but that's prob where I'd enter if I was trading it)
Having said that, SOLBTC/ETHBTC finally seeing some action
