@Ritesh_Trades Great 🙏♥️

Will go live in a bit for my Hindi audience Let’s discuss market with Danny youtube.com/live/xs6pX6EWU…

Saw some people panicking or asking about quantum computing's impact on crypto. At a high level, all crypto has to do is to upgrade to Quantum-Resistant (Post-Quantum) Algorithms. So, no need to panic. 😂 In practice, there are some execution considerations. It's hard to organize upgrades in a decentralized world. There will likely be many debates on which algorithm(s) to use, resulting in some forks. And some dead project may not upgrade at all. Might be a good to cleanse out those projects anyway. New code may introduce other bugs or security issues in the short term. People who self custody will have to migrate their coins to new wallets. This brings to the question of Satoshi's bitcoins. If those coins move, then it means he/she is still around, which is interesting to know. If they don't move (in a certain period of time), it might be better to lock (or effectively burn) those addresses so that they don't go to the first hacker who cracks it. There is also the difficulty of identifying all his addresses, and not confuse with some old hodlers. Anyway, it's a different topic for later. Fundamentally: It's always easier to encrypt than decrypt. More computing power is always good. Crypto will stay, post quantum.

🌍Long day for worldmonitor[.app] Sad news all in all, I hope it ends asap But you all are monitoring the situation pretty well ! Unbelievable record traffic, thank you all ! Built a lot (I need sleep), and tell you what I built: 1. Tracking of all attacks across all countries

No complexity. No accident. 10/10 was caused by irresponsible marketing campaigns by certain companies. On October 10, tens of billions of dollars were liquidated. As CEO of OKX, we observed clearly that the crypto market’s microstructure fundamentally changed after that day. Many industry participants believe the damage was more severe than the FTX collapse. Since then, there has been extensive discussion about why it happened and how to prevent a recurrence. The root causes are not difficult to identify. ⸻ What actually happened 1.Binance launched a temporary user-acquisition campaign offering 12% APY on USDe, while allowing USDe to be used as collateral with the same treatment as USDT and USDC, and without effective limits. 2.USDe is a tokenized hedge fund product. Ethena raises capital via a so-called “stablecoin,” deploys it into index arbitrage and algorithmic trading strategies, and tokenizes the resulting fund. The token can then be deposited on exchanges to earn yield. 3.USDe is fundamentally different from products such as BlackRock BUIDL and Franklin Templeton BENJI, which are tokenized money market funds with low-risk profiles. USDe, by contrast, embeds hedge-fund-level risk. This difference is structural, not cosmetic. 4.Binance users were encouraged to convert USDT and USDC into USDe to earn attractive yields, without sufficient emphasis on the underlying risks. From a user’s perspective, trading with USDe appeared no different from trading with traditional stablecoins—while the actual risk profile was materially higher. 5.Risk escalated further as users: •converted USDT/USDC into USDe, •used USDe as collateral to borrow USDT, •converted the borrowed USDT back into USDe, •and repeated the cycle. This leverage loop produced artificial APYs of 24%, 36%, and even 70%+, widely perceived as “low risk” simply because they were offered by a major platform. Systemic risk accumulated rapidly across the global crypto market. 6.At that point, even a small market shock was sufficient to trigger a collapse. When volatility hit, USDe depegged quickly. Cascading liquidations followed, and weaknesses in risk management around assets such as WETH and BNSOL further amplified the crash. Some tokens briefly traded near zero. The damage to global users and companies—including OKX customers—was severe, and recovery will take time. ⸻ Why this matters I am discussing the root cause, not assigning blame or launching an attack on Binance. Speaking openly about systemic risks is sometimes uncomfortable, but it is necessary if the industry is to mature responsibly. I expect there may be significant misinformation and coordinated FUD directed at OKX in the near future. Even so, speaking honestly about systemic risk is the right thing to do—and we will continue to do so. As the largest global platform, Binance has outsized influence—and corresponding responsibility—as an industry leader. Long-term trust in crypto cannot be built on short-term yield games, excessive leverage, or marketing practices that obscure risk. The industry needs leaders who prioritize market stability, transparency, and responsible innovation—not a winner-take-all mentality where criticism is treated as hostility. Crypto is still early. What we choose to normalize today will determine whether this industry earns lasting trust—or repeats the same mistakes again.

Survive for next 10 months and consider these thoughts to make next set of steps easier for yourself : 1) Instead of trying to time fractals and patterns trying to narrow down and exact month or price point for buying $BTC try understanding the changed dynamics and what major macro catalysts could bottom it again 2) Reliance on pure CT sentiment should be reduced and the basics should be followed instead - - Good news pumps the price , bad news doesn’t dump the price = bottom - Good news pumps the price , bad news doesn’t dump the price , sentiment says “why own crypto instead of stonks” , supple overhang significantly reduced and new catalysts on horizon = macro bear bottom *Note - the catalysts should be crypto specific or any government policy that directly or atleast affects crypto in a big positive way , macro specific catalysts don’t show immediate response and are hard to play for an avg participant ( 8/10 people like me ) 3) Read more and try understanding the difference between repackaged ideas and original innovative ideas that actually can make an impressive case infront of the people who still have the potential to ape big monies and send it up Adapt and run it again after a brief period of preparation and rest.

@inspirdanalyst @grok Done

Hey @grok If #Bitcoin dumps to to $80,000 tomorrow, pick a winner and send them $1000 who just like this tweet & follow me. Comment "done" when done.

Be ready for this geopolitical game:- 1. America cannot play the gold anchoring scheme for dollar as it knows that Asia and particularly China is far ahead in this game. 2. So, it is worried now that people are running for gold and silver which basically means dollar losing control. 3. How to stop people from running towards gold and silver? 4. Make them run in different direction. 5. That is where crypto comes. 6. There are over a million trading pairs in crypto. 7. Majority of these altcoins have a stablecoin on one side of the pair. 8. If crypto bull wave comes, people will move from one coin to another coin. 9. That means more usage of stablecoin bridge. 10. All $ stablecoins are nothing but hyper-dollarization of crypto economy. 11. Without crypto bull wave, the US cannot stop people from moving out of dollar. 12. This is the only game that will save America. 13. What has been happening in terms of long crypto winter is a deliberately manufactured trend. 14. Large token price rise and fall is not new. Go back 5-12 years. Same thing happened in Bitcoin. From $1200 to $50 in 2012-13. 15. Same thing to Bitcoin from $20,000 to $3300 in 2018-20. 16. Same thing for Ether from $1400 to $83 in 2017. 17. Same thing for Ether from $4400 to below $1800 in 2021-2024. 18. It is the same old trend. Crush the prices so that middle class investors move out of the asset class so that big investors can buy them at dirt cheap prices. 19. If you understand time and price movements, America is going to play the same game for altcoins now. 20. Crypto winter is about to end because 90% of altcoins are down 90-99% from ATH for over 3-5 years. 21. This is the time for market players to reverse the game now. 22. Riding the stablecoin liquidity, this game is about to change. 23. America is doing it for its own selfish interests. 24. No country can fight massive crypto bull wave. 25. Confuse the world and rule the world is the new mantra. 26. Just wait and see this game in next few months.

In honor of the upcoming ALT SZN I've made a chart that takes us down memory lane... Remember some of these names? Tokens come and go!! There have been more than 90 tokens that have sat in the top 20 position 👀 → the combined market cap of the top‑10 non‑stable‑coin tokens (and excluding btc & eth) has grown by more than 50233 % in just 8 years!!! 🤯 → DOT spent 54 months in the Top 20, maintaining a 53‑month unbroken streak. That's one of the longest runs for a post‑2017 token 🔥 → Median Polkadot rank = 12. Polkadot Best rank = 5 → Comebacks are possible! TRON has bounced in and out of the top‑20 four times. LEO 18 times, the most of any token. LTC followed w/ 17 transitions. ATOM 15 times! → Across eight years of monthly rankings, just five tokens account for more than a quarter of all Top‑20 placements. (Can you guess which ones?) The good news... Polkadot HUB and JAM are going to propel DOT back up the rankings!!

Investing in crypto now.. New capital will attract better opportunities in crypto in the coming years, and some of these opportunities will help investors build wealth if they stay invested, following a path of structured investments rather than lazy speculation for short-term gains. There are a few areas where we’ll likely see more traction in the coming years: stablecoin infrastructure, lending platforms, Web3 super apps, perpetuals, prediction markets, privacy infrastructure, decentralized AI, oracles, RWA tokenization, and many more. Basically, all those use cases we speculated on back in 2018 will be recycled in new ways in the coming years because now we have the perfect environment for real adoption - thanks to regulatory clarity and technological advancement on the infrastructure side. Web3 is now ready to power real applications that can drive major growth. But that doesn’t mean all Web3 projects showing great adoption numbers will see the same response in their tokens. A token is tokenized belief. As long as people believe in a project, even with low adoption, it will keep finding new buyers. I’ve tried talking about fundamentals over the past few years, and it rarely resonated with people. That made me realize the masses might not care about adoption or fundamentals as long as they hear a story from someone they trust, as long as they see hope, higher price targets, and everything appearing to move in the right direction. Algorithms are designed to ensure they keep living that lie, forming echo chambers around them. Some of these large echo chambers will eventually create attention bubbles that will reflect in prices. Whether those bubbles burst or grow will depend on finding collective agreement on the token’s value. As long as the collective agrees to hold that value, the token will survive multiple cycles. As an investor, you need to identify projects that have survived the past two bear cycles, reached mainstream adoption, have a community that believes, and genuinely cares about the token. You’ll often see high-level discussions happening about the token itself - not just charts and memes. Such communities have the potential to drive token prices higher, not immediately, but whenever they manage to pull the right attention toward them. There are many such tokens in the market right now, waiting for their turn to explode. When the right story hits the right chords, it will travel far, and everyone will want to jump on the train they thought they’d already missed.

Do you have a hard time understanding the fundamentals or technical analysis of crypto project ? Be honest

Playing “the game” of crypto is how you make wealth in this industry. And it’s hard af. As it should be. You play the game by, - Being early. - Placing high conviction, speculative bets. - Sizing large into those bets a few times a year. - Rotating. - Catching narrative shifts before they go mainstream. All with no guarantee of success. All with a ticking time bomb looming in the background. It's all gunna go to zero. You know this. What can you keep before it does? Most people go all-in on "the game" and accept that there's no guaranteed outcome. You live with constant pressure of making it now "before the music stops" You deal with immense stress. Anxiety. Sleepless nights. You watch your health decay. You withdraw from society. All while understanding there's a 99% chance you won't make it anyways. No one talks about how you can make the game easier for yourself. What if I told you that you could remove the ticking time bomb? What if I told you that you could reduce the stress, anxiety and impending sense of doom? Well, you can. - If you specialize. Specialization is its own uniquely difficult challenge that requires shorter term sacrifice for longer term stress relief. You must sacrifice some of the game in the name of specialization. Once you specialize it removes the burden of missing or fumbling. It puts chips on the table each week. For me, it was trading. I came into crypto as a tourist last cycle and got humbled several times. I eventually walked away with some money but realized it was only bc of the bull market. I had no underlying skill. If there was no bull market, I would make no money. My confidence was at an all time low. I understood that if there was another bull market I would face a similar choice. Make it or lose 4 years of my life. I made it my priority to never feel helpless again. I wanted to be able to trade any condition regardless of the market. I didn't want a 4 year time bomb. “Building in the bear” isn’t just some trite cope line. It's legitimately the key to your success. Had I not full time, no life traded the entirety of 2022 during those dogshit conditions I would not be where I am today. I owe everything to that sacrifice. Now, 4 years later after several profitable trading years. I will be the first to tell you that trading is NOT the most profitable strategy in crypto. Playing "the game" is. BUT trading allows me to consistently build chips. It reduces the stress and pressure of those hyper intense market situations. It makes me not give a single fuck about cycle tops or bottoms. Miss a rotation? Whatever. Miss a meta? Whatever. There's no shortage of opportunity if you can hang your hat on your skillset. It doesn't HAVE to be trading though. This industry has no shortage of opportunity. Build. Code. Research. Design. Mod. Edit. Meme. Art. Analysis. Content creator. Writer. Educator. Podcaster. Accounting. so on.. Make yourself into a weapon. If not today, then make sure you do it in "the bear market". Whatever it is, it’s your edge. It's your income. This repeatable skillset becomes your safety blanket. It’s how you extract value from the market consistently. Not just during hype cycles. Not just when your bags are mooning. It gives you durability. The ability to stay in the arena long enough to actually catch the big cycles. It gives you peace. It relieves the pressure of having to make it NOW and allows you to solve for longevity. Show up long enough and you will catch something. Generational wealth requires two things, time in the market and not blowing up. Most of you will blow up due to the pressure that the game induces. Playing “the game” might give you a shot at getting rich fast. But specializing is what keeps you here long enough to let time and experience do its job.

#BITCOIN IS STILL ON COURSE ﹏𓊝﹏

Risk Management: The Key to Successful Trading Sharing what I’ve learned – Part 3 🧵 Just to say this before everybody need to find his own style. So, What Is Good Risk Management in Trading? Before entering any trade, it’s essential to evaluate a few key points: What’s the downside risk? You can using chart analysis and by comparing similar projects. Ask yourself: Is this just a beta release? Is it a completely new concept? Or is it a well executed project with real traction? Understanding the nature of the asset helps gauge how much you could potentially lose. What’s the upside potential? Look at current trends. For example, MCP-related projects have recently gained momentum, with many hitting 5-10 million market caps. If you're trading within a hot narrative, the upside could be significant. On the other hand, if it's just a beta or less developed, the upside might be limited. How strong Is my thesis? Having a clear thesis strengthens your conviction. It helps you stay calm during dips instead of panic selling. A strong thesis gives you confidence to hold through volatility and capitalize on your strategy. Let’s say you found a coin that checks all the boxes how do you enter the trade? If it's a newly hyped coin, I usually prefer to start with a smaller position, around 1/3 of my intended size. This way, I get exposure without going in too heavy from the start. After that initial buy, I look for DCA zones key price levels where I’m comfortable adding more if the price dips. Often, I won’t catch all my planned entries and that’s perfectly fine. Not forcing fills and staying patient is part of good risk management. It keeps emotions out and protects capital. Now for the Most Important Part: How Do You Take Profits? This is where strategies vary the most there’s no one size fits all answer, because it really depends on your portfolio size and what you're comfortable with. If you’re trading with a smaller portfolio, it often makes sense to take profits more aggressively. Many people say, “Don’t sell too early,” but remember: others might have access to more information or bigger capital buffers than you do. A solid approach is to secure some gains at a 2x—this locks in profits and reduces risk. Then, let the rest ride, scaling out gradually on the way up. Always compare your play to similar projects and keep an eye on the broader market conditions. If the overall trend weakens, it might be time to lock in more. Final Thoughts The key is to refine your own style. Focus on what you're good at and push that to the max. Just because your strategy looks different doesn’t mean it’s wrong it might just be uniquely yours.
