capy lunar new year 🧧

@SereinScripts Good on you mate. So happy that you've found some peace.

Life update: Honestly, I've never been happier. Like genuinely, never been happier. It's been months since I decided to step away from Web3, and I honestly think it's one of the best decision I've made in the past 5 years - the same five years I spent continuously grinding in this space. Before this decision, 2025 was actually a good year for me. I had a lot of clients. I was earning well financially. But at the same time, I made a lot of terrible trades that eventually burned my hard work once again. My portfolio got wiped for the second time, after what already happened back in 2022. And while there were a lot of good things happening in 2025, I knew deep down that a lot of things were also going south. My health was probably the biggest trigger. I was constantly feeling sick. Barely sleeping. Almost daily headaches. Nauseous most days. Stomach issues. Heavy brain fog. I could barely focus. I was so stressed and anxious during that period that everything around me started to suffer too. I went through a ton of specialists. Cardiologist, ENT, neurologist, gastroenterologist. I spent so much time in hospitals getting admitted. And no matter what, I always felt sick. Because of that, I slowly started letting things go. I gave up my IRL business. I left one of my jobs. I dropped one client last June and only kept one since the second half of last year. I stopped creating content. I stopped being involved in anything happening in Web3. I still checked in every day, but I wasn't doing anything active anymore, especially trading. And honestly, it's only since the start of this year that I can confidently say this. I'm the happiest I've been in the past 5 years. It's hard to explain the kind of happiness I feel right now. It's not just the kind of happiness where you feel good for a moment. It's more like this feeling that everything around me is finally going right, even if on paper I'm not doing as well financially compared to before. I'm earning less now than I was when I was still deep in Web3. But somehow, I feel more positive. More at peace. Like everything is going to work out. For the first time in maybe 3 years, I'm sleeping 7 to 8 hours a night. I feel better physically. Better mentally. And I've started appreciating simple things again. Spending time with friends and family. Hanging out with my dogs. Doing spontaneous trips. Literally commuting 6-8 hours just to go somewhere, meet new people, eat something simple, and just exist outside. Seeing life outside the screen again. Looking back, I think one of the biggest mistakes I made was creating this world for myself that was just work, grind, repeat. Chasing goals without realizing that even if achieving them feels good, they weren’t necessarily what I needed. And maybe that’s why, even though I have less now, I can confidently say I’m happier than I’ve ever been. That said, I’m still human. There are still moments when I check in and feel anxious. Moments where I feel like maybe I’m not doing enough, not capitalizing on this time properly, not networking enough, not building enough, especially when I know this is technically the best time to do those things. But as I’m writing this, one thing is very clear to me. Tomorrow will worry about itself. All I really have, and what I can actually guarantee, is today. And for today, I’m choosing to use my time in a way that makes me happy! see you around once again in a while, folks!

who's still feeling back to work blues?

@SereinScripts The writing prowess clearly runs in the family

I could only give credits to my mom who's an amazing writer herself! could still vividly remember during gradeschool when she assists for my write-ups for essay writing competitions and all. and as always, thank you really... for all the time you've given for whatever that I put out here.

One of the things I've been enjoying a lot lately, especially since I've been spending more time irl, is writing introspective essays. I've had some time to post a few of them here on X and on my Medium account, mostly just to keep them online, apart from my sketchpad where I usually write. no obligation to read or anything. but if you want to ponder with me and disconnect your thinking from X once in a while, this is one small hobby of mine that I'd love to share with you here.

capy sailor moon let's hear who we should do next 👇

Open Campus is building the financial infrastructure education has been missing. Bringing trust, access, and mobility to learners everywhere. What really caught my eye on top of this is the price action. Since October, TOTAL3 (mcap index excluding btc & eth) is down 22%, while $EDU is up 6%. That’s pretty impressive relative strength, especially for a mid-cap token in this market... Feels like the market is slowly starting to price in the long-term vision here 🎯

@CapyPhillips you're awesome man <3

There are a lot of reasons to be happy, but seeing someone you look up to follow you back is definitely one great way to smile today. Leap is easily one of the best people to exist in this space. Not once have I read one of his posts without feeling better afterward. 🫶

@CapyFriends Give me Sailor moon 😏

capy cosplay week #1 who should we do next? 👇

@hanshanhk So how to differentiate? 😂

Being early and being wrong feels exactly the same until they don't. Keep going.
