Imma be serious for a minute. I “logged off” about a week ago - only a fucking week but feels like a month, time distortion in here is real - tp’d all leverage and even some spot. And then. Touched grass. Litterally. Realigned mysefl, reminded why I do it and what actually it is that I’m still doing here, reflected if I even like this place anymore. Slowed down. Every aspect of my health, both physical and mental is improving every day, bar an initial “anhedonia dump” of sorts wich is a stark reminder of just how hard we fry our dopamine receptors when we go on those onchain runs for months. My friend @MINHxDYNASTY called it the “necessary brain breaking” and he’s spot on. But man, does it hurt. This place and trading in general is a brutal environment, regardless of the money you make. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Being terminally online, an absolute necessity in those stretches, comes with it’s own downfalls: you go outside and people know nothing about the pervasive doomerisms of ours. They don’t know about crypto, inflation, robots, fuck me they barely register wars and AI risks. It’s bliss to be honest. Even if for a bit you need to be Cypher and taste some of that delicious red stake and chase the gorgeous woman in the red dress, do it. It’s ok. Breathe. I’ll be more and more mindful of it all myself. I’ll log off more. I’ll do things with my hands. I’ll laugh with more people face to face. I’ll cook delicious food. I’ll tend to my garden. More than anything I’ll learn to finally say: it’s enough. I have enough. I’ve done enough. And most importantly: I am enough.

I don’t think people are appreciating how massive this is. I really really liked and used their platform already, their tokenomics? Not so much. Now they’re putting their token front and center, and showing lots more can be done in that sense. This is key. Reminds me of the night Natan changed AI’s tokenomics and people “sold the news” at 5 milli or so. This is now a key infra bet for me, and my biggest prospect for the more “boring” all in one DeFi platform play. They tend to be close to WTA and very asymmetrical, so won’t be spreading much either cause the rest tend to be cannibalized on a long enough timeframe.

this is not a phase ( they are so tapped in. The way Vlad started tweeting and all accounts lit up the second shit hit support needs to be studied by all the imbecils that used to run shit around here. This is not a phase )

Platform behind the token pretty good too, better than most of these larps lenders that poppped up, on paper at least. I really hope it doesn’t blow up, YAMS reloaded man, strong feels… Hilarious that I’d say 2/3 of the people following me have no idea what I’m talking about it. Shows my age and battle scars in the trenches, but also how strong that muscle memory is. This cycle is lit.

Some thoughts on how early we are in the LONG ecosystem: Not a single token in the eco is listed on @coingecko. Not only that, but almost all of ‘em are flagged as scams and hidden by @Rabby_io 😂 ( please both of ya sort this out it’s ridiculous ) $AI the main token is at 140 million, not in top 50, top 100 or even fucking top 200. For a platform that is litterally birthing new primitives. Every 30% correction since 5 million people gravedance and say it’s over, and everyone is trying to call tops. Sidelined. So much sidelined cope. This is fuel. Virtual wich is prolly the most similar comp ran to 5 billion during AI season in 2024. On mostly absolute vapour. Not saying we necessarily go there, but dream a lil. @Natan_benish has shown he understands the importance of tokenomics and value accrual mechanics > everything. Nothing matters more in crypto right now. Pepe ran to 12 bilions just last cycle. Shiba 50 or something stupid like that the one before. The ticker is $AI and there is simply not a better one out there. The Inu is artificial & his brothers. Finna be a movie.

S4mmy as usual sharp and with great taste in quotes 😂 This is the same concept that so many are echoing, with @icobeast and @printer_brrr and myself with the “birth of a new primitive” longform just this weekend. This is not just a wild idea now. This is happening. The disbelief I always read in the comments will only feed the beast and light fire on the runs.

This is so fucking cool. The experimentation and possibilities of memestonks are endless. My longform thesis is unfolding right before our eyes, and I’m willing to get rugged as many times as necessary to truly find gold.
