@thedefivillain do you think the 'new shiny coin always better' era is fading? OG coins have been leading the best rallies lately

Comparing the gold vs BTC charts in 2025 reminds me of one rule I unfortunately tend to ignore in crypto: It's usually much more comfortable and easier to size up on a very large cap once it starts moving rather than longing smaller altcoins "with more upside" These are the benefits you get with large caps : Smaller drawdowns + smaller likelihood of random price collapse + higher likelihood that momentum keeps going for several weeks + smaller long-time drag because of lindyness We've seen examples with $SOL, $DOGE, $XRP, $BNB, $BCH during this cycle

No it hasn't, what would invalidate the statement is if BTC trades too badly for too long
I said "pair trade" in this tweet because he's literally selling some MSTR shares to buy BTC immediately (so at some point people should understand that commenting the price of one leg is useless), but MSTR is not in a strict sense engaged in a pair trade at all, it's engaged in a BTC leveraged trade
English
Reminder that you are commenting the price of one leg of a pair trade

Trades aren't just static entry/stop/target - every trade is a dynamic process

A friend of mine, known as @Book_of_Ra_7 said I should rather play the lottery instead of thinking that $PWEASE will ever reach a 300M market cap.
300m is not enough for me

@thedefivillain yes idk how bullish this really is, charts going up but ppl immediately piling into nuclear waste is rather concerning

There is probably still a lot of money relatively that need to exit OM bags/hedge locked tokens
Ofc they’d need an orchestrated pump via thin spot book/short squeeze to do so but the OM team would never rrright?
Probably a decent bet this happens sometime next week

@thedefivillain @0xjatt how to think about sizing these bets? any systematic approach?
English
I think the long $BTC / short altcoins trade is going to get increasingly popular until it rips in the face of everyone in it with a vicious rally
I've been hammering the trade over the past 3 months but I am trying to think a lot about risk management to avoid getting squeezed at some point
