We are at a stage of the bear market, where too many investors are now comfortable in stables barely earning t-bill rates, thinking they're gonna get to buy back lower.
"Bear markets are where you make all your money, you just don't know it at the time."
The point of holding stables, and earning yield is to buy blood and realize a greater return in the next bull run.
Never lose sight of that.
Speaking from experience, here's what often happens:
+ We assume more downside is coming.
+ We defer the decision of where to deploy.
+ We fear losing the cushion of stablecoins.
+ We forget the opportunity cost of being sidelined.
+ We tell ourselves holding stablecoins is the plan, which it is for a short time, but due to the traps above, it can be something we tell ourselves as the other biases cloud our decision-making.
Will you catch the absolute bottom? Probably not!
Just like in a bull run, will you sell the top? Most will not.
In bull runs, degens long tops because the trend is the trend, and "therefore prices will keep going up," right?
But in a bear market, too many fall into this trap seeing the trend is down, so "therefore prices will continue down."
The truth is in prior bear cycles, prices trend down on average ~12 months after marking a top (Oct 6th).
Are you here to sit sidelined in stablecoins? Or do you want to make money, eventually?
I highly recommend our latest @edge_pod episode featuring @TheiaResearch Founder and CIO to break your analysis paralysis.
Note: NFA, DYOR, I'm not against sitting in stables, I'm against not having a plan and lying to yourself that sitting sidelined out of fear was the plan all along.

MONEY OUT – MIGRANTS IN
EU proposes Erasmus for Africa and more EU-MENA integration. @vonderleyen last week proposed a connected “Common Mediterranean Space” as part of a Pact for the Mediterranean.
The initiative builds on the Barcelona Process launched in the 90’s and proposes that all European taxpayers fund projects benefitting the region while migrants from Morocco, Egypt and Tunisia will be welcomed to Europe under the guise of student exchanges. “Legal pathways for labour migration” from Africa and the Middle East will increase and so called “talent partnerships” will be scaled up.
The pact consists of three parts: exchanges of people (read: one way tickets to Europe), trade and investment (for example in renewables, clean tech and something called a “regenerative blue economy”) and security / migration management. This point is deceptively tailored to win conservative support. But it is nothing else than an opening of more doors to Europe, for potentially millions from Africa and the Middle East. The clue is in what the Commission promises to promote: “a whole-of-route approach to migration management”.
The Pact will also be a stepping stone to increase EU cooperation with partners beyond the Southern Mediterranean, including the Gulf, Sub-Saharan Africa, the Western Balkans as well as Türkiye. The Commission describes stepping up cooperation between the EU, the Middle East and North Africa, and the Gulf region as “a key objective of the Pact.”
To make it permanent, Brussels is creating a new bureaucracy in the Commission, the Directorate-General for the Middle East, North Africa and the Gulf - DG MENA.
The Pact is proposed for political endorsement by the EU and southern Mediterranean partners in November 2025 on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the Barcelona process.
What can you do?
Contact representatives in your national parliament and politely ask them to instruct their government NOT TO APPROVE ERASMUS FOR AFRICA AND THE PACT FOR THE MEDITERRANEAN.
Contact your Members of the European Parliament and tell them to OPPOSE ERASMUS FOR AFRICA AND THE PACT FOR THE MEDITERRANEAN in every way possible. This Pact is a Council decision but the European Parliament will vote on whether to allocate money for this pact – ask your representative to commit to vote NO when the proposed doubling of funding the region to €42 billion comes up for a vote.
The Commission speaks of “One Sea, One Pact, One Future” – but I want the future of Europe to be European.

Torsdag den 16 oktober befinner jag mig vid Stockholms universitet för att opinionsbilda och debattera med den som vill.
Huvudtema: Det finns bara två kön.
Jag anser att de svenska läroverken till stor del är politiskt färgade på ett sätt som inte representerar eleverna och studenterna. Jag hoppas att detta evenemang kan bli en motvikt till den vänsterliberala agenda som alltför ofta dominerar utbildningsmiljöerna.
Denna allmänna sammankomst hålls till minne av Charlie Kirk och hans arbete.

One thing that stood out to me at @OpenAI’s Dev Day is how they carried themselves as a company
The tone and quality of presentation was different, excellent even. Great employee selection and demos, the right focus on developers, and small details like the one below. Respect
Dan Shipper 📧@danshipper
so @every has processed 10 BILLION tokens on the @OpenAI API and they give us this! coolest freaking thing ever

Worth highlighting that Ben Shapiro makes hundreds of millions of dollars a year, and this is an economically rational thing for him to do

🚨 BREAKING: Ben Shapiro says he’ll be going to college campuses across the country and has a message for the violent left. “To those who would try to intimidate or seek to stop us, I have two words: F-CK YOU.”

Tom Felton says the controversy around J.K. Rowling's political views doesn't impact him: "I'm not really that attuned to it...I have not seen anything bring the world together more than Potter. She's responsible for that, so I'm incredibly grateful." #TonyAwards
