a quick guide to cashing out in 2025:

1. you don't have a token yet: sell secondaries to VCs

2. you have a token, but it hasn't unlocked: dump otc

3. you have a token, and it has unlocked: commit pseudosuicide

and people say you can't make money in crypto

the trick is to always trade against your beliefs. that way you’re either right or rich. win-win

timeline recap:

if a token has a huge market cap, then it’s crime and you shouldn’t buy

if a token has a low market cap, then it’s a failure and you shouldn’t buy

therefore

if a token is a token, you shouldn’t buy

i want to be really clear about this. it's fine if you want to have fun in crypto, but you need to be reasonable about this. you can host parties. but please make sure it's a bull market. and you're a man. and the party is in a strip club for a worthless token

every day i feel this 2018 warren buffet quote about crypto more and more

top and bottom signals in crypto are exactly the same: everyone has stopped building completely

ok maybe middle, low-middle, and upper-middle signals as well

top and bottom signals in crypto are exactly the same: everyone has stopped building and is focused on parties instead

ok maybe middle, low-middle, and upper-middle signals as well

now is the best time to build in crypto because literally nobody else is

bull markets are where bitcoin and everything else is a good investment

bear markets are where bitcoin and nothing else is a good investment

crazy how it’s been 10 years and the rules haven’t changed

there's no easier place to develop social *and* financial capital right now than crypto. you can become influential overnight by calling out scammers, and even better, you can become rich overnight by scamming

everyone debating whether manhattan or brooklyn crypto is more accessible for builders while meanwhile dubai crypto just pays off market makers and pumps

“mommy, how did daddy make his money?”

“he was the only person in crypto to invest in the only successful crypto projects: ripple, cardano, and tron”

“mommy, how did daddy make his money?”

“he was the only person in crypto to invest in the truly successful crypto projects: ripple, cardano, and tron”

pretty easy to see why everyone wants to leave crypto right now

it doesn't matter if you bet on the right tech if you bet on the wrong market maker

*watching people who joined crypto a year ago retire on millions while i’m worth the same as i was in 2017* “yeah but i bet they don’t know what it’s like to have my cat”

thinking it might be time to get out of angeling

been doing this four years, invested in some good projects, some bad

the bad have done better because they understand that token price rn has everything to do with market manipulation and nothing to do with adoption or revenue

almost impossible to find a token whose value is remotely correlated to adoption or revenue

in retrospect, the inevitable corollary of never finding any valuation metric for tokens was that consistent market manipulation would become the metric instead

web2 is so broken. last night the new york post got hacked and dmed tons of crypto people to try to steal their life savings

if we had web3, it wouldn’t be like this

instead, everyone targeted could form an onchain cabal to launch a memecoin to dump on their followers

big loss
