I've been reading @DidiTrading for a long time, and this post inspired me to start a blog too. I've tried to revive my X four times already, but I gave up each time. This time, things will be different. I'll try to make this journal as useful as possible for you. I'll share what I'm learning and working on in crypto and beyond, and I'll also include useful resources. My goal: The samurai has no goal, only a path.

Day 25: What’s going on with extended valuation? I know market conditions in shit, especially perps, but 25kk revenue going in buybacks and 150kk fdv????

Day 24: Preparations for a ground operation are observed, and at the same time there is an explanation that this is a show of force and there are no guarantees that they are going to use it. They said the same thing 2 months ago when they pulled together the air force. The United States has 3 realistic options: either look for a way out now, or raise rates, or leave everything as it is and wait until Iran runs out of steam. Now Iran is clearly not going to give in, so the US withdrawal will not only look like a defeat, but in reality the blocking of the strait will not go away and Iran can continue to keep its rules - fees for passage, etc. Moreover, this is not in the interests of Israel, whose main goal is a change of power. This is their best chance in almost half a century for regime change, and they will do everything possible not to miss it. Raising the stakes may look different, some even consider the use of nuclear weapons likely, but there will most likely be some kind of ground action. Landing on the islands or in Chabahar, commando raids on nuclear facilities, [hardly] joining the Arabs in the war... Well, about diplomacy. Publicly, both sides declare diametrically opposed conditions: Trump insists on the complete surrender of Iran, while Iran demands very harsh conditions in response, which will turn it into a regional hegemon with control of the strait. We can say that this is the benefit of diplomacy, they will find some kind of compromise, something in the middle that suits both sides and, although it will not be easy, peace will come. In addition, the arsenals on both sides are thinning out, there are elections in the fall, and all that. However, I don’t know what a compromise version of the “regime change” position could be. Almost the same Gordeian knot is the nuclear issue. How many negotiations were there last year about the nuclear program - and what did it lead to? It turned out that the negotiations were simply used as a diversion. And why on earth would the treaties succeed now, when both sides are confident of their victory and thereby sent into space the already distant chance of compromise? It is still unclear what is actually happening with the declared “negotiations”, and whether they exist at all - what Trump posts sounds like some kind of surreal thing. At the same time, there is damage control from Vance’s team, for whom they are working on the image of a peacemaker in order to save his career in 2028. At the same time, it is far from a fact that he is in contact with someone, perhaps this is just stuffing up to create an image. There is also a factor of illusion, Trump is another bunker grandfather, and even with extreme megalomania, who lives in his own world, divorced from reality, where contacts with the outside world on an ordinary day go through a small number of people - the head of the apparatus and the head of communications of the White House, and his family with Kushner. He literally has his own social network where only the party line is posted. Therefore, I admit that they put folders on his desk with beautiful reports that all the targets have been hit, all the missiles have been shot down and there is still a week or two left to finish them off, and then Iran will capitulate. And so on in a circle. There is something in this - the United States is really moving forward in the air, B-52s are no longer flying with missiles but with bombs, and instead of military targets, the focus is gradually shifting to industry. But power cannot be changed from the air, so this is another dead end. In addition, Iran still has a margin of safety. Added to all this is a certain “important announcement” tomorrow at 9 pm. I don’t think that Trump will announce the end of the operation - strikes against Israel continue, so there is still a lot of work to do. Most likely there will be another “nothing” speech about how everyone was defeated and destroyed.

Day 23: worked on the car and a little bot moves.

Day 22: The quality of my diary still leaves much to be desired, but even when I wrote really good posts, the coverage was simply 0. I’ll try to come up with something, although I can’t give really useful AI content. Today I came across an interesting video about the TG miniapp tunnel. Soon I’ll tell you about how I did the same thing long before it appeared, I think you’ll be interested

Day 21: Today was chill day ngl, days goin really slow, hope to release bot soon.

Day 20: Battle for your pulse or biohacking fashion Started when I was hunting for the perfect pipeline to track my body data. Whoop is slick because it has zero screen. You just strap it on and forget about it for a whole week. It pulls clean RHR and HRV straight from deep sleep — super pure data. Downside? That subscription hits $200–$360 a year. Then I found Apple Watch + Bevel. This combo feels like the ultimate setup. Bevel grabs the raw data from Apple Health and turns it into graphs that look like they belong to pro athletes. The app design is miles better, and the iOS widgets let you see your readiness score right on the lock screen. Recovery is the one number I check first thing every morning. If it’s in the red zone I just cancel everything and hop on Dota instead 😁 Both devices use AI to read your CNS readiness through heart rate variability. Whoop takes one snapshot at the end of the night. Bevel watches the whole night and shows real-time recovery dynamics. What you can actually do today: Just download Bevel — it’s completely free. The Pro version adds some in-app AI but honestly you don’t need it. Quick lifehack: low recovery? Do some breathing exercises before bed — it actually moves the needle. Drop your own tricks below. Why use Bevel when Apple’s activity rings already exist? Rings only show movement. Bevel actually tells you if your nervous system is ready to train or if you should rest. Why is recovery low even if I slept 8 hours? Sleep time isn’t the same as sleep quality. Stress, caffeine or alcohol can kill deep sleep — your brain just never got the reset.

Day 19: Ask the AI. Everyone’s hunting for that “secret automation button” — how to plug AI into their processes, how to build complex pipelines. But honestly? Just ask the AI a damn question and start brainstorming the idea together. Asking the right question is literally 90% of the work.There’s no perfect way to prompt. Forget all the prompt engineering hype. A good question is just rich context — that’s why I love talking to it out loud by voice. Always tell the AI to ask you clarifying questions to tighten the context. Once it feels solid, just say “now create a prompt for this.” And start building your own knowledge base — simple .md files in Obsidian. What you can do today: Stop polishing prompts for hours. Start talking to AI like it’s a smart mid-level colleague. If the answer sucks — don’t close the chat. Tell it straight: “this is bad because…” and give real feedback.Try voice mode too, it changes everything. Quick FAQ: Why bother with .md files if the chat already has memory? Chat has a hard context limit. Your .md lives in your own vault — permanent, wider context, always yours. Do I need to learn special commands? Nope. Just learn to think and speak clearly. Clarity in your head = clarity from the AI. And no — AI won’t replace programmers or analysts. It will only replace people who don’t know how to ask good questions. Everyone else just gets a brain exoskeleton.

Day 18: Crypto is so boring nowadays, idk what to write about and what to do tbh

Day 17: Happiness loves silence.

Day 16: Just chill day, doing irl businesses

Day 15: How to growth audience in crypto? It’s getting really tough. The topic feels completely milked dry. Everything has been talked to death. I honestly don’t believe in a big crypto renaissance coming anytime soon. When you break it down, there are basically only three ways people are growing right now: 1. Pure degen content — writing about perps and crazy trades like shorting oil because of the Strait of Hormuz… Wild that most volume is now coming from tradfi assets lol. 2. Prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi — same gambling basically. 3. Crypto as actual money — but there’s almost nothing interesting left to say. So my take is this: while AI hype is still running hot, this is the moment to build around it. Create content. Start channels. Share what you’re learning. The demand right now is insane. In 2-3 years this window might close. Even 2-3k real engaged followers can take you to a completely different level — deals, products, connections, opportunities.

Day14: Got my license today, rode all day, 0 thoughts and movements in crypto, GN.

Day 13: Haven't slept for over 24 hours, no informative thoughts today

@Mr_Lumus 100% 😂

@0xthe0 yeah omg the pressure to have a perspective every single day is what kills the fun for me

Day 12: Noticed something lately. Keeping a crypto diary is way harder than I thought. Ideas for what to write run out super fast — especially when you’re only grinding one thing… or just relaxing. On chill days my brain just goes blank lol. This is tougher than it looks. Anyone else struggling with the same thing?

Day 11: Been following the Extended team for quite a while now. Honestly, I still don’t get why everyone’s sleeping so hard on their Polymarket launch. From everything I’ve used, it’s easily the most convenient perp DEX out there. Lowest fees among the top ones on altcoins (yeah, the selection isn’t the biggest yet — but that’s just a matter of time). Strong TVL, solid team, clear roadmap.I’ve been farming since September. Wouldn’t say I’m in love with the project (though I do like it a bit lol), but 42% at 300k FDV right now? Feels straight-up ridiculous. Market is rough, no doubt. But I’m betting on growth in the next 6 months. That’s why I’m still farming. I'll still place a hedge bet before the drop because the $met airdrop story taught me a few things, but I hope that the market will play in my favor this time. What do you guys think about Extended?

Day 10: the MVP is almost ready, but I've used up my request limits, so apparently I have a day off tomorrow

Day 9: Today was day-off, tomorrow I plan to finish MVP of the bot.

Day 8: Today only work with the bot, nothing more

Day 7: Today I explained AI to my dad. He’s a trader now, so we sat down and went through how to actually use them + everything they’re really capable of. The realization hit me hard. People who’ve mastered them have such a massive advantage over those who don’t use them at all or only play around a little. The edge is actually insane. How deep are you guys using AI in crypto and business right now?
