@shaams Oh, I thought maybe I was the one being scammed, but I guess they were actually scamming the public and using me as a prop.

everyone is saying $pump looks good now because its green
i was saying it looked good when it was red...
shaams 🐂@shaams
tbh im getting more bullish on $pump, especially after seeing people continue to claim rev is fake and that team is selling supply (which is verifiably locked onchain?) as long as the cycle isnt over, $pump has the highest r/r out of any coin on the market and if the cycle IS over, then you have bigger problems than fudding pumpfun x.com/shaamszn_/stat…

I’ve been trading some commodities recently with my most profitable trades being silver futures over the last month.
I have been using RH while experimenting with new platforms like Trade by Unit
I will be moving my volume to @OstiumLabs for the time being, they have a wide range of assets to trade and you can get 50-100x leverage on certain stuff which matches futures and is higher than anywhere else on chain.
I also feel like they are more likely to airdrop than say unit which is still a shot in the dark for the time being, points season 2 just started so timing is decent as well.

as a trader, the best skill you can have isn’t how to make money, but how to think about money/markets
your goal should be to generate/preserve wealth for as long as possible
not necessarily to make as much as you can in 1 year & live off that forever
while the latter is convenient & you should definitely extract as much as possible during easy mode, most will eventually roundtrip due to having a poor understanding of markets
(full porting BTC at the top with profits, actually gambling, etc. there are an infinite amount of ways for this to happen)
long term, id rather bet on someone who didn’t make as much this cycle but is higher iq/has stronger fundamentals than someone who full left curved crypto & made more money overall this cycle
on the high time frame, markets won’t always reward stupidity & luck

despite people saying otherwise, being chronically online will ALWAYS be an edge however, since last year, the way you have to be chronically online has shifted from staring at new pairs now, i think the best way to spend your time is to constantly be absorbing information while the market is “dead” once you get past all the shitposts, you’ll find that theres a gold mine of valuable info on twitter don’t be afraid to spend money on resources too (substacks, “courses,” etc) ive been doing that a lot recently & id much rather spend $2000 on this than lose that same amount trading even though lots of people posting (good/paid) content are larps, you can still reflect and improve from it *** but some people will cope & say that being chronically online is bad because you’ll get “burnt out” or need to “touch grass” this might be a naive take, but i don’t think burn out is real. if you actually enjoy something, you’ll be able to consistently push through hours of work & research it’s not even about money at that point. it’s about passion & the genuine interest to learn more + improve second, sometimes some imbalance in your life is necessary in order to get ahead of everyone else. especially when you know most people are slacking, like right now (even if that means staying inside all day) you don’t become one of the best traders in the world by living a life of “balance” not everyone wants to be the best in the world though & everyone also has diff goals/perspectives on life so sure, “touch grass” if you want, i’ll never judge but personally, ive always preferred staying to myself & i know i have some sort of potential in markets maybe not potential to be the best in the world, but potential nonetheless chasing that potential is what gives me fulfillment, even if im not making a lot of money or sometimes have to skip out on "grass touching"
