Think we get an AI / Agent run on @base that dwarfs the first and makes it look like child’s play. Some good ones been launching under the radar this week, I added $lumen from @albertwenger & $juno @JunoAgent from @tomosman Albert is a billionaire VC & early Coinbase giant shareholder & Tom is followed by Jeff Bezos, pmarca & other tech giants. Both sub 1m. Could be something, solid R:R regardless. 0x4E6c9f48f73E54EE5F3AB7e2992B2d733D0d0b07 0xa9FEE7b2F54781A14c85A1B8815345AefbE1EB07

@planert41 Thanks for sharing PPE, no matter how hard it is you will get through this with your family. Sending positive energy your way

Warning: Long Personal Overshare Needed to take a long mental break last week because I got REAL close to just ending it. Had to schedule an emergency therapist session which did help. Started to plan how to do it, lined up life insurance policies etc. If i could somehow get my hands on some cocaine that had fentanyl on it, prob would have (Every other way besides getting a gun to the head still had a risk of failing and that was like.... worse. Still alive but disabled and you don't get the insurance payout. Therapist thought it was funny but was also worried) This wasn't trading related. It was more so driven by the kid's health diagnosis and realizing this would be a chronic health issue and would never end. Since the kid was born, I've just been head down trying to make it work. Working jobs + dad/help wife mode every other waking hour + Baby kept waking up every 2 hours driven by food sensitivities that we had to trial and error to find out (after 2 years). Every meal was stressful. It wasn't about how good the food tasted anymore, it was just an exposure vector. And if we were wrong, we didn't sleep for 2 weeks. Sleep was stressful. You go to bed expecting a cry sometime in the next 2-3 hours. Yes I use ear plugs. But his screams still cuts through them. Immediately raises your cortisol levels and its hard to fall back asleep. Might be an evolutionary biology thing. But the crying happens 2-3 times A NIGHT. EVERY 2-3 HOURS. I'm stressed about the baby's room conditions. Is it too hot/too cold? Did i angle the vent correctly? Is the humidifier setting too high/low? Did i put it at the right spot? Every day was basically one big trade where you got to sleep if you were right, and you didn't if you were wrong. Every night was just a question on how bad things were for the wife. Did she get 6 hours of sleep or 4 last night? Every small decision felt like life or death, because it was. You make 1 small bad move, you don't get to sleep. You make them ALL right, MAYBE you get to sleep through the night. BUT even when you're right for that night, you don't know that, so your body wakes up every 2-3 hours anyway on the rare days the baby sleeps through the night. No breaks. No weekends. No holidays. EVERYDAY. And it felt out of our control because we kept losing to random shit. Like the frozen gluten free waffles decided to change their ingredients one day and we didn't notice it. Or the daycare teacher gave him some snack that had soy oil in it and we get fked for 2 weeks. I don't blame the teacher. What normal person reads every food label looking for soy oil? (Maybe we need to switch to a "woker" daycare 🤣) Wife is constantly dead because she's dealing with the kid most nights. So as the good husband I try to help up as much as i can with everything else and don't ask for anything from her. But I also felt like i couldn't complain about anything or ask for any support since the wife was also dying, and i just had to deal with it myself like a man. We have zero help, its just me and the wife, so I felt like i had to keep things together (even if i felt like shit) because i didn't want to drag the wife down emotionally because if she went down AND I went down, there was nobody else left. I couldn't afford to break (or take a break). If i broke, nobody else is there. I just felt like a battery that was constantly being drained that never got charged (since i still wasn't sleeping well). My only release was going for a run once a week if that (after asking for time/capacity permission) because i felt like i was needed every other waking hour for the family to function. I try to meet a friend downtown once a quarter but 50% of the time some shit comes up and i have to cancel. There was nothing to look forward to. Food was stressful. Sleep was stressful. Every waking hour was spent to just keep the family afloat. Just grind all day, day in day out. Giving and giving and giving but never receiving anything back. Sure I got those 2 one day trips to see friends this year, but I always pay for those after i get back. The only thing that kept me going was "knowing" that it will all end soon. Like the kid will grow out of his intolerances, or we'll figure out the right routine and it'll go back to "normal" eventually. Ppl kept saying it'll get better, but months became years, and close to year 3, we were all pretty much at our breaking point. There was also a string of unfortunate incidents going into last week. Kid's been sick every week since daycare 3 months ago (which i hear is pretty normal). 50% of the time wife also gets sick (and i'm trying to hold it all together) and then 20% of the time I also get sick (and still trying to hold it all together). Had to travel a week for work and immediately came back to a shit show. Kid ate something at daycare, and then the teacher gave him tofu (and god knows what else) during the thanksgiving potluck and it was just disaster after disaster. So when we realized it was a fairly rare chronic condition called EOE, I just lost all hope that things will ever get better. Hence the suicidal thoughts. If i died then the family would get a giant life insurance payout, they'll have it figured out financially and can get whatever help they need. I'd have done my duty as a dad/husband and I don't need to keep suffering anymore. That was the thought process at least. However that day, we tried the PPI drug and it actually worked. We both slept the best we've slept in years for like 2-3 days, until we stopped giving it to him coz it was so harmful long term, so we still need to figure out how/when to give it to him. And things actually looked like there is hope. Anyway I'm tweeting all this out, not to look for sympathy, more so to process it all for myself because it's been a lot recently. One thing that struck me was how I felt I couldn't reach out to my closest friends about all this during my lowest moments. Prob would have been different if they were in my city, but just felt like they couldn't help anyway so what's the point. I think things would be very different if we had more of a support network. More friends and family around. Truly takes a village to raise a kid (while keeping the parents sane). This whole thing that parents should be able to handle it all by themselves or else they're failures is purely some American "we don't need anyone" "pull yourself by the bootstraps" ego thing. Often times when i hear someone say "my parents raised me all by themselves", what they actually mean is "well my grandparents/aunts/uncles lived nearby and helped occasionally" but that doesn't register as "help" for some fking reason Yeah i think that's my takeaway so far. Just how important having a support network is. That I need to just be more proactive in fighting the dark side before i get there. Might delete this before the wife sees it and i get a earful again. Don't have the energy to deal with that lol. Personally i think it's important to share these deep low moments as ppl would never know if you never shared and i think there's a big element of shame for men of sharing these moments of "weakness" when more ppl than you think might be going through the exact same thing and this might help them. Been surprised by how many ppl commented that they could relate. Thank you for all the kind comments 🙏 youtube.com/watch?v=wAlvkb…

@planert41 Any healthcare names that interest you right now?

So fking dead today. Prob hitting peak rsv on my end. Sucker comes in waves. Thought k was all clear yesterday And then getting hammered from both sides at work Chinese boss being really irritating. Apparently can’t review my PR and wants a “cleaner one” because I had a 1 line dictionary map (1:x, 2:y) that I don’t use anymore and left it in. But he doesn’t want to go “line by line” Wants to get a beta out by Friday. But at the same time has to be perfect because the other Chinese boss is playing politics and preemptively saying our code sucks. Bro you don’t pay me enough for this shit. But at the same time I hate doing a bad job personally. (My personal standards) Honestly didn’t really look at the markets much. Also not much to look at. TLDR everything was dying lol. Except healthcare

$ethz Along with $avnt one of my larger holdings. Why? Two reasons. Peter. Thiel. Don’t fade Peter.

Only coin on my list that is red. Wait and hold approach

$xpl Complete timeline silent on xpl whilst price has recovered back to $0.40. Time to add here if it bounces, xpl has barely recovered the 10/10 dump so there is room to the upside. Of course we could never recover but worth a long

$aixbt Want some exposure to agents (even if I feel the x402 meta is forced), always a good idea to buy the best. $aixbt is the OG $virtuals agent. Longing here at around 0.1

$pump Slowly grinding up, thesis still the same, still daily buybacks via revenue generation. Nothing changes but to hold

So $pump takes over padre and then announces no further use for the padre token. So the padre token holders didn’t own anything before this and it was all a mirage?!? In tradfi, no way a buy out means existing holders get nothing. Only in crypto Good for $pump I guess

$pump Upcoming Q4 announcements, still generating $1m a day etc, longing some here at 0.0035. Counter point is the chart doesn’t inspire confidence. Not sure being “undervalued” holds any weight in this market either

Think liquidity is about to rotate out of $virtuals and x402 meta back to other $avnt. No other reason for $avnt to not be at $1 during base season other than lack of liquidity

$avnt Rotated my $virtuals position to $avnt. Don’t think the PERP DEX narrative is over and best to own the base one for now. Chart looks good as stabilising at low 70s.

Was wrong on the x402 meta as so many runners today but good price action on $virtual. Closed my position now as ansem recently tweeted about $virtuals lol

x402 meta feels kind of forced right now. Sounds interesting but feel it’s already run so better to fade CT. If I had to own one coin it would be $virtual, for now I’m fading the rest. Also feel $virtual needs to play catch up with rest of the market

Coin couldn’t even reclaim previous highs with some more recent posts, tough tough market (or the meme is not actually that good)

#macrohard coded

Ended up being wrong, never fade CT.. Every coin moved higher except for $xpl but this was because my entry was horrible.

$xpl Longing here. A bit late as it is up 25% from the lows. Also a few KOLs are posting buying in the last couple hours. Normally I would fade CT but ANY buying support is a good thing right now so also buying.
