had to take profits, sir

let me tell you a story of someone who wants to make it in the crazy space that is the solana trenches. a guy in his mid 20s quits his job to pursue crypto full time. finds a meme he falls in love with. gets rugged on it. decides the meme is too good to die, so he relaunches it himself. live on camera. no team. no backing. just a feeling. the first 48 hours it hits 4.2 million. the timeline is on fire. betas are being made left and right. the community is the happiest place in the trenches. for two days it feels like everything is about to change. then people rotate. because that's what people do. but he doesn't. as days go by, the chart bleeds. he watches it fall from millions to 200k and instead of walking away he puts in his own money. keeps pouring creator rewards back into the chart. gets scammed. gets betrayed. gets hate. but he keeps going. even gets his friends and family in. now its christmas eve. a miracle happens. the chart touches 1 million. he could take something. anything. after a week of grinding he could finally breathe. instead he locks 2% more supply. doesn't sell a single token. after that, it only goes down over 4 months. 500k. 300k. 200k. 100k. 50k. 30k. choppy. quiet. for months. but he's still there. making tshirts by hand. printing stickers with @Pumpfun QR codes. creating memes every day. livestreaming. still believing when the numbers say he shouldn't. until one day he can't anymore. not because he stopped believing. because he ran out. personally. financially. he gave everything and there was nothing left to give. so he https'd. for the first time in 4 months. about a week later he posts a simple tweet. just his pnl and the words "i tried." he's sitting at dinner when his phone starts going off. the chart is at 160k. people saw the post and sent it. he's holding zero supply watching the coin he built pump without him. ecstatic and heartbroken at the same time. it dumps back down. but now it has eyes. a few days later he makes another post. this time it catches. really catches. a coin gets made about him highlighting the story. his very coin that he believes in, starts getting traction again. over an hour, it hits 550k. he gets on livestream with his fiancé and they're both just sitting there smiling because for the first time in months it feels like people actually see what he's been building. that's the story so far. SO FAR. because he believes it's not over. he believes this story gets deeper. more magical. that the best chapter hasn't been written yet. and so does a community that hasn't stopped bagworking since the resurgance. now put yourself in his shoes for a second. would you have stayed past month one? month two? month three? would you have locked supply on christmas eve instead of taking profits? would you have kept making tshirts for a coin at 30k? most people wouldn't. most people didn't. and that's exactly why this story matters. because in a space full of people who leave, one person stayed. and the few who stayed with him are still here. this isn't just a coin. it's the most human story in the trenches right now. its a movement. after all this space has been through, this kind of story is only possible in crypto. and it has the ability to create real change.

I created a list and added those that I look up to and believe that if we raid and have fun posting under their posts relatively quickly, they may support. May take hours, days or weeks, but if we don't give up, I believe it will happen. It is important to be respectful and have fun when we do raids, we don't want to be annoying or overwhelming. Join the list and you will see right away when a person I added posts. Put your favorite https meme under(or meme that's relevant to their post) and send that post to the raid chat, and we will raid it! This story deserves to be heard by those that are looked up to in this space, and if we succeed the trenches have a great chance at being in a better place they are right now. x.com/i/lists/205429…
