My crypto investing framework has 3 buckets.
Religion, Fundamentals, Narrative
1) Religion
- Coins that are bid bc ppl believe
- BTC, ETH, ZEC
- You are buying conviction. Figure out what will become a religion before it does
2) Fundamentals
- real demand, real revenue, buybacks
- $EDGE, $DRV, $SYRUP, $ETHERFI, $VVV, $PLUME, etc...
- buy before ppl realize what's going on. Once it's obvious the move is mostly done
3) Narrative
- hardest Bucket. highest R/R
- Investors are forward looking and want to buy what's next
- Narratives are either long or short term and you really need to know which is which.
Long Term:
- multi year themes that get re-bid every cycle
- quantum, privacy, AI
- you get multiple shots. $PRL, $QNT, $TAO earlier
Short Term:
- Day: Meme goes live, bid for hours, then gone
- Weeks: something catches CT attention, everyone piles in 5-10 days, then poof. Memes paired w/ stocks is a recent example
- Month: a mini cycle. Eg. RH eco gaining momentum lead to $PONS, $Cashcat, etc..
Narratives expire and there is always a new narrative. So you have to learn to TP. Narrative coins that survive make it to fundamental section

There is only one coin that is all 3:
- the cult of jeff
- best fundamentals
- the future of finance
In case you didn't know, you can trade cbZEC on @DefinitiveFi
You can literally sell ANY (meme) coin from ANY chain (solana, robinhod, etc..) into cbZEC on Definitive!
You can even fire off a 1 month DCA and ZODL
