Unfollow those who don't make you money. You waste your time. Who was bullish at the bottom? Who navigated crypto as side quest? Everything is timestamped. No need to argue. You can say luck - it isn't. I'm out here daily. And to those who mislead their followers - thank you for posting, you're the best indicator.

The Potential Power of Putting Out Your Opinion Monkey See, Monkey Do… Monkey Die The Werther Effect - to make clear how powerful it can be. This is - again - not meant to offend anyone. If you feel offended, we have a saying in German for that: only affected dogs bark. Yeah it’s written provocative - but for a reason. If you survived the first lines, I think you ready for the read. What I wrote is based on facts. You can find the Facts in "Influence - the Psychology of Persuasion" by Robert B. Cialdini. And if you are interested you can just look it up and check the facts elsewhere. The Werther Effect: „Die Leiden des jungen Werthers“ (The Sorrows of Young Werther) by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, from 29. September 1774 is telling a story about a guy called Werther. The Book was very successful when released and provided Goethe with fame. Werther - the main role - committed Suicide in the Book. So Goethe got his fame. A crazy byproduct was a wave of suicides across Europe. Why? To make that understandable we need to understand the human behavior. Many of us look for confirmation and - I know you believe you are super individual (me too btw) - are part of a herd. It can be a herd in the herd in a form of subculture but you are still looking for people that you can identify with. It’s not always bad. It’s just what it is. We can identify best with people that share similar attributes. Age. Clothing. Origin. Whatever. But why are we doing it? We are looking for Social Proof. And thats a very strong Effect. Definition: Social Proof is a psychological and social phenomenon where people mirror the actions of others to reflect correct behavior, especially in uncertain situations." When is the principle of Social Proof and its effect the strongest? When people are unsure of themselves - thats when humans tend to follow the lead of others. You will find a lot of more examples, let me give you one: On March 31 in 2017 Netflix released a series called 13 Reasons why. In the series a young high school student commits suicide. She leaves thirteen tapes behind with reasons for doing it. In the next thirty days the number of suicides among young adolescents rose by 28.9 percent. So the persons committing suicide all identified heavily with this actress and did what was kinda the „right thing“ to do?! Now you see how strong social proof really is. To give some less brutal examples from the daily life: Why do people often queue at a red light in one lane but the other is free while both lanes pointing same direction? Why does it always take someone "special" in supermarket who is "brave" enough to ask for a second cashier? Now I want to come back to why I am a strong believer not everybody should have and post an opinion. And yeah I love to discuss, but pretty often it’s absolutely useless and a waste of time, because a lot of discussions would never happen if we just check the facts before. But the discussion isn't an issue if we just accept the Facts after discussing. Once we accept the Facts we can start to really discuss and look for more facts that might lead to a theory. Problematic are discussions that happen where people just deny facts, too lazy to look them up but still allow themselves to speak. To compare the behavior, it's similar like waiting in the long queue and stating the empty queue will take longer time. The problem is not the discussion itself, but that people gonna join the uneducated opinion camp and design their choices by that - you want that? But thats not why I’m posting this. And when you ask yourself why I discuss - to put out facts. Only st*pid people don’t accept to be wrong - so if you have a fact that proves me wrong, please drop it! I post this, because some are maybe not aware what they can cause with putting out their opinion. Now we make a small thought experiment: Let’s just say its the last Month before Germany is absolutely cooked and it happens - man will be forced into military service. I mean it’s not that long time ago but yeah… Okay we are now in this last Month. And Albert makes this post that he did… Albert did his research and only released facts, nothing else. Some people might identify with the Persona Albert and grab the opportunity and do whatever they believe is useful to do. Leave the country maybe, find an alternative, get super fat to not be considered by the army (come on a small joke here n there huh?) So all these people are now feed with something that secures their future - we still in the thought experiment ok? But now you release your opinion in the comments. Maybe someone is in there who identifies heavily with you and you just say thats not true, or whatever. We now conquer a fact based post with an opinion based on something thats - what? What is an opinion? "An opinion is a personal belief, judgment, or sentiment about someone or something that is not based on absolute proof or certainty. It reflects feelings, attitudes, or interpretations, as opposed to objective facts. It can also refer to a formal expert appraisal or public consensus." First it isn’t a problem. But the effects of Social Proof turn it into one. The month passes. All Albert followers, packed with the fact, left the country. All of those who identified with you are now in a very bad situation. Why am I typing this? It’s not about a single situation. It happens very often and the more you get into the thought process the more you maybe stumble over some things the government, the media, the world itself you live in, has installed only to… (mis)lead you? What if you heavily identify with persons between 18 and 25 that trade crypto? What if you buy always when they buy and sell when they sell? What if thats a perfectly installed and prepared trap you get rekt in every time it’s placed in front of you? Now think more - how many times you heard „if you want to be wealthy in life you have to go to school, university bla bla bla“… Maybe you did. How does the average life taste? Nothing bad with it, but you follow me because you don't want to live that life I think. I mean you did what everybody else did or told you, now you are here. Someone had an opinion, but instead of a 911 in Heidelberg you are driving a Passat in Leipzig because your Boss, the person you really studied for, says thats where you have to work the next month. This could have been avoided with just checking the facts. Its not that complicated to look the average income of someone who studied what you thought gonna make you rich - while you nosedived into the rat race. You don't identify with the 911 driving Boss, but with your public transportation user coworker. Social Proof confirms that you do right - while you failed your target. But the Social Proof was so strong, you haven't been able to do your research. My life was kinda different, I nosedived into a different problem. But same effect. So you maybe discuss things for the sake of discussing, but before you really release an opinion out into the world be very clear to yourself, that you maybe influence people in their decision making. Now think about people that post only because they look for validation - and now think about the people that identify with those people. WTF. You get the point? With the post that I released about the facts that I researched before I just stated something that is what it is: A fact that is public black on white written down in the law and is freshly changed. Some nice people discussed and accepted the facts. Some didn't. Thats not too important, whats way more fascinating is if you look into society how they handle these facts. Same like Covid lovers, they now say it’s „fake news“ or „click-bait“ - and thats dangerous. Why? Putting out that opinion will lead to a domino effect - we had that in the past and we gonna have that in the future. So Imagine someone who says it’s „fake news“ is a person that thousands identify with - they spread it and find per person another 500 who identify with them. This is how weak societies are build. This is why people still send their children to Wing Tsun Courses - yeah your son is gonna get beaten up, send him to real combat sports ffs... that waving hand BS wont scare anyone. No he wont disarm anybody. Yes he gonna get stabbed if he believes he can. Combatsports are factchecked via MMA and Wing Tsun doesn't exist there but people still pay coaches for - what!? You can put the whole text over everything we are witnessing. Be it in social media, in real life, in your family, your society or whatever. The Werther Effect is the evil brother of the Bannister Effect. Both are triggered by Social Proof. Conclusion: If you really have checked the Facts and you are aware of the power your opinion carries, that you put out into the world, the things you have to say might be important - or it might be important to say nothing. If you didn’t check the facts, you might start a negative domino effect that, if you are a good person, you would avoid to kick off. Now the most important question after we have an understanding of the Effects: Why are people defending the German Government without a Factcheck? This is not a fact but my opinion: it's a form of defending - spreading wrong things in favor of the government. I would even go a step further - its close to Stockholm Syndrome if you live in Germany. What does that say about the collective intelligence we (should/could) have as a species? There is something installed in our brains - and that happened with a force btw (you are forced to bring your kid to school here) - that lets many people identify with the system. Why people are instinctively reacting? Is it so hard to accept that the war machine just rotates? Gaining data of the available future Soldiers and war participants is a form of preparation. Same like a Shopowner checks the inventory before he opens. If I would like to control the Society and create behavioral patterns there are a lot of ways. Let's do another small thought experiment: We have a plan. The plan is to test how far we can go and if people really stay locked up at home. First we create uncertainty - not that hard... Flood them with a lot of different perspectives and those who carry their opinion do the rest - everything unclear = uncertainty. We go to the next step. We use the effects Social Proof for it and let strong Personas just lock themselves up, use masks and so on. But you have to think further. The conspiracy theorists who release things first are very often people that I would be embarrassed to show myself with. Weird people that are super uncomfortable to listen to, that I would never identify with transport sometimes an important fact - whats the effect? The Social Proof Effect gets inverted. It's pretty easy if you understand all that to discover how often you get influenced/controlled. Important questions that should be asked: Why does the Media spread the news right now? To be honest I don't know it, but it isn't random as usual. The law is active since 1. January 2026. It's a fact and not deniable before you argue please read the law - but why did it got spread right now? Why am I typing all this? In my life I often got affected by that. I grew up in uncertainty and it was easy for me to jump into the next best Social Proof situation to feel good. Many people suffer this and are mislead into a Life full of pain. In an optimal world, only those who have a fact speak about something. There would be only truth, nobody would be mislead. I know it's utopian to think like that. But if I do one step into that direction it gets a bit more real. Discipline your words. You might save someone. And reflect your decisions. Too many people just say "yes" to things that are super easy to fact check. In the Picture is a small example how the Truth dies.

@MariusSm1th „You will own nothing and will be happy“

None of my German friends or family knew about that law and some are really into that kind of stuff! Soon we will see digital id's and € as a CBCD and they can track you where ever you go/spend your money, limit your spending or outright confiscate all your belongings... 🤯

@MariusSm1th @Albert_618 100%

@Marco131_ @Albert_618 Fortunate or unfortunately, you decide! Whichever it is, just get that f*nkg $$$

It’s not enough that you give 50% of what you earn. No, you must ask the military if you can leave the country for longer than 3 months. In case they need us to die for them. When Riot!?

@Albert_618 Get in the car we are leaving

gesetze-im-internet.de/wehrpflg/__3.h… Here the Law.

@MariusSm1th @Albert_618 Need money for that unfortunately

@Albert_618 @Marco131_ Or just exit the system completely/as much as you can 👌

@Albert_618 Can’t even find videos of it only old stuff. We need some of the French mentality in this regard

@Marco131_ Look the riots 1st may this year in kreuzberg. Compare to earlier times. Society has fallen.

@Marco131_ Ah they do lol, they milk us, they lock us up if we refuse, they use us, and we are one of the first countries where everybody owns close to the same - we are kinda experiment haha. Choose Violence against the System in any form

1/ Welcome to the Circle $USDC files. $420M+ in alleged compliance failures since 2022, including fifteen cases of the US-regulated stablecoin issuer taking minimal action against illicit funds.

@Albert_618 @ChainHubCT

@ChainHubCT Actual footage of me returning to my TradFi world

$MANA Volume is low. We come from HTF Demand (check Cryptocap MANAUSD) and they released some News when hit. Check MTF Structure... x.com/decentraland/s… If we see a BOS I am interested to try a position. The short is tempting too. No Limitorders for me. Same like the $FET Idea its to plan steps ahead. I wait if we get BOS. If so I look if my entry is smart or not.

@TraderDune 🤌🏻

Does anyone still have post notifications on for me ?

@kssb__ Must be random 😁

$NQ 1st attempt: heavy partials at 11R, then stopped at BE 2nd attempt: 25R Shared it in the public section From the same POI. Again 🤦‍♂️ Easy Tuesday

@kssb__ Gg bro

$NQ 1st attempt: heavy partials at 17R, then stopped at BE 2nd attempt: heavy partials at 19R, then stopped at BE 3rd attempt: 36R → full TP, then the market fully reverses right after hitting my target… must be random ⏳ All. From. The. Same. POI.

@Albert_618 Too cryptic don’t understand this Fvg thingy can u explain 👉👈

$FET explained. Keep in mind it can always fail. Nothing is ever guaranteed. I hope it helps, if it's not understandable just ask in comments.

$NQ MyFundedFutures closed my position 1h30 before market close (turns out I didn’t read the rules lol) so no 51R 0 tick DD, not even fully filled TP given 5h in advance Still sharing the trade cuz PA is interesting and nothing is random ;) Time + Price ( + Price⁸)

@_MaxO22_ @WINTM2 which region if you also don't mind ofc

@WINTM2 Yes

I can proudly say that I live a completely sovereign life. I’m not dependent on a government, person, or boss. I pay a minimum in taxes and 0% capital gains tax, building waterproof legal systems across the globe. I’m living in the heart of a beautiful mountain range on 1800m, surrounded by nature and wild animals. It’s a place where people don’t even lock their doors or cars. There is not a single traffic light in a 150 km radius, and you can go and do whatever you want. The police are here to help you, and it actually feels like that. Plants here have so many nutrients due to the volcanic soil that you have to mow the lawn with a machete. Water is clean and everywhere, and in summer I grow my own food. I can plan almost every day as I wish and only with people I genuinely want to spend time with. If I want to, I can completely shut off input from the outside world and enjoy the quietness. The air quality is as good as it gets and purer than what you can buy in Tokyo air cans. In winter, the whole area turns into a winter wonderland almost the entire time, with huge loads of fluffy snow coming down, fuelling the best ski seasons I’ve ever had. Special winds create between 75–85% sunny days, even in winter and during the transition seasons, and the sun has the same strength as in Rome due to the latitude. Fuel is available for less than $0.90 right now, and fruits and vegetables taste like something you only know from stories in Central Europe. Sovereignty is one of my biggest core values, and I reached it already at a very young age. Not by having everything material sorted out beforehand, and also not by waiting for the perfect moment. No, I made it by just doing it, starting and figuring things out along the way, trusting the process, myself, and the flow of life. Soon it’s time for a new chapter, because I never do the same thing for too long or stay in the same place longer than I should. Always going with the flow, being stronger than fear and comfort. You could have it all, but it will not happen by waiting for the perfect moment. It becomes real by just doing it.

@Albert_618 You back in Thailand already?

The Difference between Social Media and Reality On social media you might get the Idea that trading immediately leads to chilling with your Laptop on the Beach, sipping a nice drink and enjoying the day. Or the illusion that you just sit at a nice place, watch the skyline, click 3 buttons and make another yearly salary. These things are possible outcomes, yes! But the reality looks different while being in the process. I often carry my Laptop with me, to be ready when an alert kicks off. I trade Sessions while in car in the Parking Lot, I try to not spend much money to build capital and often I'm fully focused on the charts. I'm very often alone, don't socialize a lot to be ready if the market is ready too. Sometimes I feel exhausted. Sometimes unproductive. Sometimes lost. But every single day I feel like I'm doing the right thing. So keep in mind, it's easy and very exciting to fall for the influencer Trading trap - and yeah one day you can live the life if you stick to it. But in the process it's different. People love to see the 6k PnL - what they don't want to see is that it's the 4th trade after 3 Losses that put me back into Profit. People love to see that I can do with my time whatever I want - what they don't want to see is that I'm working 10h and more every day. People love to see Stock Setups playing out - what they don't want to see is me charting the whole American Stockmarket. People love to see the Dax edge - but spending thousands of hours on the Same Asset? It's tempting to think it's easy. It's tempting to believe lies. But it stays what it is - an illusion. Get rid of those who pretend it was easy. Small fun fact - I tried an Instagram, but omg it's hella braind3ad... hard to change I guess, people love the illusions. The non influencer life I live and enjoy:
