Full time trader since November 2024. Nearly everyone around me said it wouldn't work. Looking back, it's the best decision I've ever made.
You fight your own battles, make your own calls, live your own life, nobody else can see what you're capable of. And honestly, most people in society don't actually want to see you succeed, because your success forces them to question their own choices. That sounds harsh, but if you think about it, you know it's true.
It was the hardest period of my life, trading a stable teaching career for what looked like unemployment from the outside, constantly having to explain myself and justify my decision while grinding through the hardest phase of building capital. Exhausting doesn't even cover it. Emotional turmoil, fear about the future, constant uncertainty. But deep down I always knew this is what I wanted.
The path is anything but easy, but pushing through the hard times is always worth it.

I've just submitted the final application to quit my 9to5 job and I'm shaking. It's the beginning of a new chapter in my life.

Hah, just was looking at 4h, only looked quick before my post.
It does look good now especially with btc bouncing at key level. Im thinking selling might be done soon and zec strength looks like it wants to continue.
heres my look, entry here looks decent but like 8-12 hours ago wouldve been ideal, a pullback to retest support around that level you outlined 530 would be what im looking for as i dont feel the need to rush back in and would like to enter closer to the 514 support if possible but yea zec has had crazy strength wouldnt be surprised if it just ran back to 600.

This post really drove home the current predicament @solana finds themselves in right now.
The whole reason they are doing industrial grade door to door shilling for @PhoenixTrade and skipped over @pacifica_fi is because they don't just need a perp dex on Solana, they need a perp dex that fixes the dumpster fire tokenomics that $SOL currently has.
@0xasrequired made the very key point that Pacifica is no more aligned with $SOL than @Lighter_xyz is with $ETH or @HyperliquidX is with @arbitrum. There are Pacifica points, there will be a Pacifica airdrop for a Pacifica token. Very little value accrual to $SOL even if Pacifica rivals Hyperliquid.
Phoenix explicitly states there is no points or airdrop. Gas fees use $SOL, and it's entirely possible/likely that transaction fees will have some value accrual to $SOL too.
This is very different from the parasitic relationship that @Pumpfun has with $SOL where they just sell all their $SOL to buyback and burn $PUMP.
$SOL currently trades around a 300x 30d annualized fee/mcap ratio vs the 16x ratio that $HYPE trades at. The argument that general purpose blockchains deserve to trade at 20x the ratios that perp dexes are trading at is no longer compelling to investors, as evidenced by $HYPE making ATH vs $SOL for a year straight.
The reason the SOL foundation is shilling Phoenix specifically like it's do it die is because for them, it IS do or die. They prioritized memes for too long, and lost sight of their initial mission: perps. If they don't become competitive on perps, specifically with a specifically $SOL aligned perps dex, they'll continue to bleed valuation.
Composability with a chain only counts if the chain actually has a useful DeFi ecosystem, otherwise it's just a buzzword.
The good news for them is they currently have the best ecosystem for spot equities and their stablecoin ecosystem is trending in the right direction, which will eventually be important.
The battle lines for the next 12 months are very clearly drawn. @solana needs to throw $SOL incentives at onboarding perps DEX users and make up lost ground (or continue door to door shilling). @HyperliquidX needs to throw $HYPE incentives to make up lost ground wrt building out a relevant DeFi ecosystem (money markets, liquid staking, spot equities etc).
$ETH needs to make the same realization that $SOL made, albeit way too late; it sucks to be a public good general purpose blockchain.
I think @HyperliquidX has a much cleaner path to their win condition than @solana, so the HYPE/SOL pair trade (L/S) is very thematic here. ETH foundation is so asleep at the wheel that they aren't even in the conversation here. Over the next year, both $SOL and $ETH likely continue to bleed market cap to $HYPE, and select $HYPE eco tokens might finally catch an outsized bid.
It's a big if, but IF SOL can undo the damage (Phantom using HL builder codes is a permanent black eye for them), SOL/ETH L/S is very compelling for the next 12 months. Near zero reason to bet against HYPE at this point imo. Their fight to lose.

@permacope @koolkrypto223 i never said it was the best place to trade. it is a place to trade that is great for SOL

The @PhoenixTrade situation in a nutshell
@solana: Shill a perp dex so bad that it'll create a viral 💩 storm on CT and lots of free press for @PhoenixTrade
CT: This is without a doubt the worst perp dex I've ever heard of

If you guys were serious about @PhoenixTrade becoming the future of SOL perp dexes, you wouldn't want people to use it in it's current state.
Shill when it's actually useable.

@koolkrypto223 @PhoenixTrade @HyperliquidX You talked about it. Good job. But did you try it yet?
