A bit and clout and mfers forget how to hold a conversation. I noticed this a lot at Token2049; many "KOLs" think they're too big for anyone else. It's embarrassing af that you think you're someone big on the internet, but reality is no one gives a fuck who you are. Funny how plenty of much bigger creators people shit on are happy to chat with anyone, while some guy who's had a few posts do well acts like you need an appointment. This is your reminder that you are not bigger or better than anyone based on your X followers or engagement. Learn to be good to everyone, hold a decent convo with anyone, no matter if they have 10 followers or even 100.000. Keep acting like a fool and people won't come near you online or irl.

Even the best traders take Ls, plenty of which never make it onto your TL. Trading looks easy when someone posts $244 turning into $345k overnight, but do you know how fucking rare that is? You don't know what they lost before it, how many other positions went to zero or whether they actually sold. A screenshot can be real and still tell you very little about how someone is doing overall. One trade can change your life but chasing that specific outcome itself will make you burn through everything you have, I've seen it happen way too many times. Aim to win but do it in small steps rather than trying to port everything in to win big. Size small, take your initials, take more profits on the way up, and maybe let the rest ride. Most people won't tell you their trading strategy, but the best trading strategy is literally having patience. You see these big traders making a shit ton of money? They have one thing that 99% don't. Patience, that's literally fucking it.

A bad launch can leave your project full of holders who are only waiting to get the fuck out. Someone buys the hype, gets smoked and decides the whole project is shit. From then on, every update gets measured against their entry price. You release a better product and all they're thinking is, “Can this get me back to breakeven?” The people who left probably aren't even seeing what you're building anymore. It's kinda fucked because you could be making real progress and still struggle to get anyone to give it a fair shit. Getting people excited creates expectations you'll have to live with long after launch. You need people actually using the product, getting something out of it and telling others why it's worth their time. It's tough, but it's better than being dumped on for eternity.

Mfers hit one good trade and start acting different. The same people who had time for you when nothing was happening now have to prove they're worth your time? Retarded behaviour. Post your wins, buy the watch, have a good night out, do whatever the fuck you want, but don't start acting like you're better than everyone else. Nobody wants to be around someone who decides how much respect you deserve after checking your wallet. Making a bag should give you more freedom to enjoy life with your people, and not turn out to be a retard.

If a team you wrote off starts delivering, change your fucking mind. Some people decide a project is finished and start praying they're right. I'd much rather see that team come back with something worth paying attention to. More effort going into launches, content and getting products in front of people is good for this space. We need teams willing to put themselves out there again, especially when the easy response from CT is to clown them. But going into Q4, I want to see where that marketing actually lands. Are they getting someone outside their existing community interested? Does that person try the product, come back and tell a friend? That's when a comeback starts getting interesting and worth paying attention to. A few teams doing that at the same time could bring a lot of life back here, including to projects people stopped checking months ago. There's plenty of room for people to surprise us. Give them credit when they do, share the stuff you like and let your opinion catch up with what they're actually delivering. I'm bullish on a Q4 where more teams give us a reason to pay attention again. Let them cook.

I got to give credit where credit is due! Big W to the team behind @joinfrontier! They crushed it with both their events and have a powerhouse team behind them. If you want to go viral on the timeline, you do it by hiring the best in the game and let them cook. Great event, great vibes, and great friends to be around. You may have thought it was cringe, but we need cool shit like this to happen often that gets everyone involved. Whether you were there irl or not, you can see many people on the timeline loved it. Things we love to see!

Some of the best people in crypto barely post. You won't know their follower count, their bags or what they think about whatever drama is happening this week. Yet if you sit next to them at a dinner, you could spend hours talking about stuff you have in common. That's what you're missing when your entire experience of this space is scrolling the same accounts every day. Go to an event and speak to people you don't recognise, ask what they're working on, how they got into it and what they're struggling with. You'd be surprised by how much people are willing to share when someone shows interest. And please don't spend the whole trip chasing a photo with the biggest ct account, give yourself time to get to know a few people properly. Grab food afterwards, stay in touch, make plans to see each other again. There's a lot to love about this space that you'll never get from sitting at home reading people argue. Go and meet the people you're spending all this time online with. IRL events, they're the alpha.

This space will always surprise the fuck out of me. You're telling me you want more people buying NFTs, yet you're shitting on the few projects that have spent years building here? Make it make sense. The funniest part is that some of you would call the exact same team geniuses if the floor was pumping. Nothing about the team would need to change for you to suddenly start bullposting again. I get it, your bags are down, but imagine being new, looking into a collection and seeing its own holders telling everyone it's shit. Why the fuck would you want to join? If a team hasn't delivered, say what they haven't delivered and ask the questions that need asking. But trashing every single thing they do because it hasn't pumped your bag is hardly helping bring anyone in, or giving any benefit whatsoever. Operation fud your own bags is impossible for a lot of CT.

Robinhood Chain Supercycle (real) There’s clearly a new meta emerging on Robinhood right now. Over the next few weeks, expect more attention around onchain experiments, gamification, and new speculative mechanics. Let’s break down what could be coming next.

IP Supercycle (real) Collector sentiment is starting to pick up again, and @opensea is right at the centre of it. With the Collector Park coming up during NFT NYC, bringing together some of the biggest IPs in the space. And now, Solana NFTs are officially coming to OpenSea. The attention is shifting back onchain. Pivot to NFTs.

Fudding has become a full-time career for some people in CT. They wake up, open the app and the only thing they contribute is negativity because they have nothing better to do with their lives. Never built or contributed towards something, just endless opinions on other people's work. The thing is, fudding costs nothing and risks nothing for them which is why they do it. So how do you stop them? Very simple actually, mute them and let them talk into the void. Giving attention to retards only makes you a part of the pack.

No one will tell you this about trading on CT: > there are always people with deeper pockets than you looking to dump on you > someone always has more information that you don't > most traders on here don't know what the fuck they're buying > your fav kol copy trades from another washed kol that is just launching coins > if you lose your capital, no one is saving you > you will always want more, no matter how much you make > one bad risk will end you if you have no patience Anything else you're adding?
