Reminder: you can now sync an ethereum node within half a day and with aggressive settings the space it takes up on disk can be under half a terabyte.
EIP-4444 and hard work by client teams on optimizing snap sync has improved things *a lot*.
Glamsterdam will improve the sync situation further still (eg. Nimbus's new sync protocol uses it)
remember the challenge of this public wallet is to turn $1k into $1m and buy a house (down payment)
that means, we’ll probably have to sell every single coin we ever buy
the goal isn’t to become the top 10 holder in the best coins and to stay their forever, it’s just find those early as possible and hold with conviction, taking profit along the way
intentional
eyes on the prize
we’re currently at $200k ($50k in bank, $20k in account cash, $130k in holdings)
remember when DeepSeek V3 and R1 dropped b2b and made everyone question what frontier intelligence was supposed to cost?
remember when Gemini 2.5 Pro was sitting at the top of basically every leaderboard?
remember when we had almost unlimited Opus 4.5 in Antigravity through a $20 Gemini subscription?
remember when everyone started calling Gemini 3 Pro design AGI?
remember when Opus 4.6 and GPT-5.3 Codex dropped on the exact same day and both felt like game changers?
remember when hardcore GPT-4o fans refused to let that model die and kept begging OpenAI to open source it?
remember when MCP was just this weird Anthropic protocol and nobody knew it would end up everywhere?
remember when Nano Banana dropped and suddenly Gemini was miles ahead of everyone in imagegen?
remember when GPT-5 was the model everyone had been waiting years for?
remember when we thought nothing would beat GPT Astra 6 for at least another two months after launch?
Absolutely CRAZY how far we've come
Remember, in Tom Lee’s back pocket he still believes we see a drawdown to test Kevin Warsh and the Fed also uncertainty leading up to the Midterms election.
Unless he changed the projectory again?
