here's how I lost 10 SOL buying a coin 7 SECONDS before the dev sold and rugged it to 0 10 SOL > 0 SOL ALL LIVE ON STREAM! oh yeah and join @KantoLabs

I still like memecoins and trading, so if you haven't given up yet come join my group here: discord.com/invite/kantola…

I think the crashout happening in the memecoin community is justified there were months and months of 100+ million marketcap coins spawning every day how could we go from insane life changing opportunities every day, to there being PVP on every narrative that pops up and everything is now a 200K topper? see, back during the bull the more you slept the more opportunity you would miss out on people were making insane money and there was unlimited opportunity I know a bunch of people who retired this cycle now that we're in a bear market, everyone is pointing fingers as to who the issue is "it's the trading terminals, it's the launchpads, it's the streamers" the reason memecoins aren't going as insane as they did back in 2024 isn't because of one specific group of people this is just part of the cycle when things slow down and things reset, and I've lived through these periods before people hate PVP, vamps, the launchpad wars, the bundles, the rugs, etc.. eventually things will reset, and the money will flow once again the last thing I'll say here is that whenever the market is going crazy, and I was making ridiculous money every day, people would join my group and say "wow how do you do it, I want to do what you're doing" my response was always the same: "I was here when everything was dead. if you really want to make a living from crypto then you need to be here when no one else wants to be and you have to put in more time than everyone else around you." per usual all those people are gone, and here I am waiting and searching for the best opportunities to come up once again you don't have to trade every single day, just stay active, wait for things to heat up again and sit back down at the table when the time comes

@Ninja_invasion did you know that in life 90% of people lose as well? if you want to make it far in life, you have to be better than 90% of people. it's not just in crypto, it's everywhere. people want money, money is competitive to achieve, no one is going to just hand someone else a freebie.

@ashrobin 90% of traders lost money during the meme coin cycle, in fact a lot less people made money on meme coins than NFTs. Let’s stop glorifying that period of time, it was the beginning of the downfall and only a small percentage actually made money, most were used as exit liquidity

@orangie @JesusMartinez @krakenfx send stables to kraken, use kraken pro to swap your stables into usd, send to bank that's how you're supposed to do it

@JesusMartinez @krakenfx I use kraken too but the off-boarding fees are insane compared to Coinbase 0% when you have the membership I’ve probably paid 20k+ in fees

I left Coinbase for @krakenfx. Not because of one thing. Because of everything. Here's what most people don't realize about Kraken in 2026. They're not just a crypto exchange anymore. 11,000+ US stocks. 560+ cryptos. Gold. Oil. Futures. All in one account. Zero commission on stocks. And if you're just holding cash as a stablecoin, you're earning 2 to 4% APR automatically. Your bank gives you 0.5%. Some key things that made me switch: • @krakenpro fees start at 0.25% maker. Lower than most competitors at base level. • Instant USD withdrawals. 365 days a year. Try getting that from your bank. • USDG earns yield the moment it hits your account. No lockups. Paid weekly. • They've never been hacked. Never lost customer funds. Since 2011. • Wyoming SPDI charter. 100% reserve requirement on cash deposits. And then this happened. Nasdaq announced a partnership with Kraken on March 9. They're building tokenized versions of listed stocks together. Full governance rights. Voting. Dividends. The biggest tech stock exchange in the world chose Kraken. Oh and if you hold HBAR, Kraken is running a trading challenge right now. 300,000 HBAR reward pool. Trade the HBAR perp on Kraken Pro, compete based on volume. First 2,000 clients. Runs through March 23. For international users it gets even crazier. xStocks give you tokenized US equities trading 24/7 with up to 20x leverage in 110+ countries. Crypto exchanges are becoming the new brokerages. And Kraken is leading the charge.

Ash Robin Explains One of the Biggest Issues with On-Chain Tokenization of Pokémon Cards "There is not a ton of volume on these different platforms. When you’re talking about marketplaces, in theory you would think that would work and it is more convenient, but your reach is a lot more limited. There are not a lot of buyers on secondary markets on these crypto-related platforms." "Through experience, I’ve had different cards on different platforms, and it’s just very hard to find buyers on these platforms" if you're trading crypto and memecoins, join @KantoLabs

Ash Robin on how crypto platforms that are repacking are helping drive massive Pokémon grail card deals "A lot of crypto platforms with VC funding need grail cards to use as chase hits"

some people in crypto are saying that Pokemon cards are "the next NFTs"... but they're not "Pokemon is the #1 IP in the entire world, and cards are completely different than NFTs. they're trading cards, they've been out for 30 years, and we all grew up with them. people buy Pokemon cards because of the art, rarity, and collectibility of our favorite IP. NFTs were simply speculating on other people creating a household IP, which only 2 or 3 brands were able to do build a brand that even slightly broke out of crypto"

@Limfork I appreciate you saying that, dropped you a follow 🫡

@ashrobin Been following you since 2021 back when NFT mania was starting Learned a lot from you at that time Keep it up man

I haven't worked a 9-5 since 2021, here's how I went from being a failed streamer to a successful video content creator the internet is a special opportunity, a once in a lifetime opportunity that anyone can leverage and make a career out of after I graduated from college in 2018 I told myself "I want to be a content creator and I don't want to work a job forever" so I streamed Fortnite for 3 straight years while working my 9-5 I wasn't good at Fortnite, and I wasn't good at streaming, but I was good at making videos in 2021 I started collecting Pokemon cards, making content about Pokemon cards, trading memecoins, and trading NFTs at this point I said "maybe I could make content in crypto and learn how to trade instead of gaming" my first few videos in crypto went viral, and my first few trades were great I got lucky initially, so I figured I was in the right place at the right time and said "let's keep this going" I was 25, didn't have kids, wasn't married, and didn't have anything to lose at the time so I ended up quitting my job, sat down at my desk for 16 hours a day, and I got to work since 2021 I've made thousands of videos, traded thousands of coins, logged on every single day, and I didn't make excuses when things got tough it wasn't easy though, late 2022 and early 2023 were very difficult since we were in a deep bear market and it was right before memecoin season on ETH started popping off I genuinely think I was in the right place at the right time, but I put so much time into what I was bound to walk away with at least SOMETHING from all my hard work while everyone left during the 2023 bear, I stuck around, kept making content, kept trading, and I was positioned for the 2024 bull run one of the main things to point out is that I had no social life at all for the past 5 years, I sacrificed going out to bars and partying so I could position myself to do well in life I actually didnt do anything except make videos, trade, learn about markets, and go to the gym for 5 years I don't regret this at all so what's the point of this whole post? I'm just a regular guy who ended up building a career on the internet there are tons of people who have done the same thing, and it's definitely possible if you do the right things it's a mix of hard work, right place, right time, right sector, dedication, sacrifice, and luck since the world is looking weird these days, and the future is always uncertain, I wanted to share this story with you all since I'm sure this resonates with other people out there and hopefully it helps

@yogurt_eth didnt know it was that much

the memecoin market is changing, and it's not what it was back in 2024 🫤 but there are still opportunities to trade if you're looking in the right places if you're bullish on crypto long term, sticking around during times like these is going to give you an advantage whenever volume and retail interest shifts back to crypto during the next bull run here are my thoughts on the memecoin / AI coin market, and where I think we may go from here ⬇️ if you're trading the memecoin market, join @KantoLabs

Ash Robin on the Pokémon card bull run and the wave of $20K+ deals happening daily "The crazy thing is, things could go much higher. Pokémon is the biggest IP in the world, and people want this stuff"

if you're in memecoins you have to watch this video almost every big memecoin is down 95%, and Murad literally hops on here and says "I remain bullish" and then goes on a 25 minute rant comparing SPX to BTC and why he thinks SPX outperforms no one is as delusional as this dude this is the level of bag working that makes me think that community coins still have a place in crypto, and one day we will be able to hold "good" coins again but yeah you have to watch this video, this dude is so outrageously bullish and unbothered and it's great content

@MustStopMurad @CountryBitcoin can we run an interview too

@valueandtime I remember you posting this 3 years ago during last bear

If you are still around now, you will probably make it when things get crazy again.

@MediaGiraffes LOL

I spent my life savings on this commercial for my billboard company.

trading memecoins !discord !twitter x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

are you still working a 9-5 and trying to make it out? well, you're not alone there is a guy in my group who is ignoring all the doom posting and is just grinding crypto every single day he works a 9 hour shift, takes care of his kids, tries to be a good partner, and is actively trading so he can make life better for his family this is the perfect example of making NO EXCUSES and just putting your head down and getting to work regardless of market sentiment, the more time you put into the market the more you get out of it this is the mindset you need to have to truly make it, and I had to go through very similar challenges so I could get to the point where I could quit my job too

what's the biggest problem in the memecoin space? well... ➡️ PVP / vamps (happens on literally EVERY coin) ➡️ culture shift from believing to just "trenching" ➡️ too many coins being deployed (over-dilution) ➡️ deployers are incentivized too much ➡️ tech made everything too efficient ➡️ too many larp rugs (99.9% of the time the coin isn't legit) ➡️ glorification of trenching opposed to holding and community building ➡️ none of the big entities are marketing memecoins well ➡️ people claiming fees on coins and then not supporting them a day later ➡️ skill gap is pretty wide ➡️ the overall market is in a bearish part of the cycle I love trading memecoins by the way, I've always enjoyed it but we're in a bear market now, so you can't expect everything to be the same as it was 2 years ago I do think things will end up working themselves out over time, and there will be another crazy run for memecoins and AI coins I'm ready to trade whatever comes up, for now I'm just being patient and waiting for good stuff to come around again

I went to Collect A Con today and it was the first time I’ve gone to a big show like this where I didn’t spend a single dollar this time I was selling off Pokemon stuff I’ve held for a while what all did I sell? full video recap of the show will be posted tomorrow on here ✌️
