I didn't just give the warning, I posted every little detail from which you can learn to predict such tiny movements in Bitcoin and monetize them/make money from them.
Only thing you need to do is cut the noise, unfollow everyone you think is confusing you and be a hard believer of someone who is actually delivering.
What a great crypto cycle. Let's look back and see what happened.
$BTC probably fair market price here, but a lot of leverage building. $ETH predictably did nothing. $XRP no users/customers, no product, not decentralized, literally worthless, zero value, completely meaningless token. $133b market cap. $SOL basically enabled scammers to rug all the liquidity and reached the same top as 2021 (congratulations). $ADA still has no users, community dying, Charles is now AI and is the same price it was in 2017. $LINK shockingly didn't bridge crypto to traditional finance and is the same price it was 2020 (link community only people surprised by this). $HYPE revealed to the market how to launch a network that actually creates value for its participants. Market actually started to price $XRM/ $ZEC to reflect the value of privacy. $XLM/ $HBAR mms pumped again to extract another round of retail liquidity and now will grind holders for the next few years. Both will probably now go to zero. $SUI was a pretty basic tokenomics scam. Very obvious in hindsight. $LTC kept grinding (got me too lol). Congrats $CC for launching a database with a token. Will enjoy watching this go to zero over the next few years. $LEO I've been in crypto for 10+ years and have no idea what this even is. $UNI great example how you can scam retail with a token even when you have a good product. $AAVE and $AERO too. $TON already dumped 10% of the supply on retail (lol). $TAO still holding strong. Elements need fixing, but good foundation. $KAS had a commendable run, still strong, but the trilemma is apparently dispensable. No matter how much money CZ makes, he will never stop extracting $ASTER lmao. $STRK/ $W when traditional scamming just isn't enough. $BERA LOL. Never forget who promoted this. $PUMP airdrop definitely coming soon. $APT Mo didn't just basic scam you he is definitely a victim too. $SPX/ $PEPE/ $FARTCOIN still interesting I guess if you like memes, community still strong. $TIA the floor is zero. Thanks for playing. $HNT good idea, good product, badly managed. $ICP/ $DOT/ $RENDER / $ATOM classic tech based token scams going to zero.
Honorable mentions list. These are still good scams, not super memorable. $PI, $XPL, $MON, $WLD, $LIT, $SEI, $IP, $JUP, $ZRO, and basically 90% of everything else still in the top 200.
Special shout out to the exchanges that enabled all of these scams. Thank you.
Save this if you want to make it with crypto in 2026
- if you feel extremely nervous when you buy a coin, you’re trading with too much money, cut it to a more comfortable size or you risk losing everything.
- A memecoin is only as good as the attention it gets lasts, once the attention disappears so does everything else.
- Don’t look back when you take profits, you may give everything back including your capital.
- it takes only one coin to change your life, but you’re going to have to get through some losses or rugs before you hit that one coin.
- Once it’s all over the timeline, you’re not early, you might not be late but understand you’re not early and act accordingly.
- Belief is not enough reason to hold a coin for a long time, you have to have a good thesis on why you think it will continue to go up in price.
- Cut losses & accept your mistakes when you’re wrong about a trade, half bread is better than none.
There is a trader who ran an account from $10,775 to $42,000,000 in 23 months. During that run he set the record for the single biggest return in a year. 29,000% ($18,000,000).
He had something like a 40% win rate, risking 3-5% per trade. He made that money trading a strict mechanical setup over something like 1,000 trades during the dot com bubble.
His name is Dan Zanger. He sold his car to fund his trading account. He recognized that with the positive expectancy the only rational thing to do was ruthlessly exploit his edge every chance he got and compound his capital as fast as the math would allow.
These things are possible, the only thing stopping any of you is the skillset, experience, and discipline. And when you finally get an edge, and the skills to trade it, exploit it as much as humanely possible. $BTC $ETH $BNB
Back in 2018 and 2019, a U.S. space and defense research paper was published that had nothing to do with speculation.
It was written for government and aerospace use cases.
Buried inside it is something interesting.
The paper makes a very clear distinction between blockchain and distributed ledger technology.
It treats blockchain as just one implementation, and DLT as the broader category governments actually care about.
Then it gives real examples.
Bitcoin and Ethereum are mentioned as open, permissionless systems, alright.
But when it talks about permissioned, trusted ledgers used for banks, payments, identity, and regulated environments, it explicitly points to Ripple’s architecture.
Not as a concept, but as an existing system.
That matters, because the use cases highlighted in the paper aren’t crypto-native at all…
They’re things like identity management, access control, certification, regulated data sharing, and settlement between institutions that need compliance built in.
This was written for governments trying to modernize infrastructure without breaking existing rules.
Fast forward to today.
What’s quietly being built on the XRP Ledger lines up almost perfectly with those requirements.
Back in 2018, the paper could only describe the framework because the tooling wasn’t ready yet.
BUT NOW IT IS.
XRP sits where real adoption happens: inside regulated systems that don’t disappear overnight.
That’s why XRP keeps showing up in places most people aren’t even looking.
Trading can change lives overnight, but not in ways people think.
You can start with $1k and the next day be at $1M. This is very possible and achievable.
But know that you don’t turn $1k into $1M just like that. It takes discipline, consistency, a dream, and a good plan. No, it's not luck, and starting with a big amount isn’t the real deal.
The magic lies in discipline, risk management, showing up daily, and following set rules.
If you want to grow in trading, the first thing that grows isn’t your money, it’s your discipline. Start small, manage losses, allow wins to grow, and choose consistency over speed.
👉 Now, tell me, how do you plan to improve your #trading skills this year?
From what I have seen online it is extremely clear that Market Makers have retail in an absolute chokehold.
They have manipulated price to the point that any aggressive move they deliver going forward will cause immediate sentiment shifts, even faster than before.
A move up = altseason 2026 and extended supercycle
A move down = continious depression without anyone looking for opportunity
The only way to differentiate yourself is by developing the skills to understand price action:
Understand accumulation & distribution schematics, good bottoming formations vs bad bottoming structures, understand what healthy moves vs manipulated moves are, and the list goes on.
If you are right now reading this message while scrolling on Square looking at hundreds of other peoples opinion --> you are not going to make it.
The truth is that the Euphoria phase of Crypto is over. You either do not know this or are afraid to admit it.
This is the AI Euphoria phase, after that, we move to the Quantum Computers attention phase.
If you channel your money into investing in AI and Biotech firms you will make more money in 10 years than buying Bitcoin.
Study where Capital flows to and you will never be poor.
Crypto has been here for a while. We have sold the world Decentralisation for roughly 2 decades. The stories are no longer enticing, everyone knows what Bitcoin is. It doesn't freak them anymore.
At this point, like every asset, Crypto assets will find their natural economy. The price will be derived through utility, not necessarily hype anymore.
For people expecting an exponential Crypto market explosion in terms of Capital inflow, it will not happen like in the previous market cycles.
The Bear will be less damaging, the Bulls will be less Euphoric.
It is important to pay keen attention to where Capital flows.
Revolutionizing Decentralized Storage in the Web3 and AI Era As we progress into 2026, the demand for efficient, secure, and scalable decentralized storage has never been higher. With the explosion of AI applications, rich media content, NFTs, gaming assets, and blockchain archives, traditional centralized solutions like AWS fall short in terms of censorship resistance, data sovereignty, and cost efficiency. Enter Walrus Protocol @Walrus 🦭/acc a groundbreaking decentralized storage network built on the Sui blockchain by Mysten Labs and now governed by the Walrus Foundation. Launched on mainnet in March 2025 after a successful $140 million funding round backed by investors like a16z crypto, Standard Crypto, and Franklin Templeton, Walrus has quickly established itself as a leader in handling large unstructured data "blobs" files such as videos, images, AI datasets, PDFs, and more. At its core is RedStuff, an innovative two-dimensional erasure coding algorithm that achieves exceptional data availability and robustness with just a 4-5x replication factor. This makes Walrus up to 100x more cost-effective than competitors like Filecoin or Arweave, while enabling self-healing recovery and fast reads/writes supported by CDNs. What sets Walrus apart is its programmable storage model: blobs are stored as on-chain Sui objects, allowing seamless integration with smart contracts for dynamic updates, composability, and cross-chain compatibility. This unlocks powerful use cases, from decentralized social platforms and collaborative tools to AI training with verifiable data provenance. Since mainnet, adoption has surged. Over 120 projects now leverage Walrus, including Talus Network for on-chain AI agents (storing models and datasets for real-time decision-making), TradePort Sui's largest NFT marketplace for metadata storage across Move-based ecosystems, Tusky as a privacy-first Dropbox alternative, and others like Itheum for data tokenization, Chainbase for omni-chain AI infrastructure, and Pudgy Penguins for NFT assets. Partnerships extend to gaming (3DOS), media (One Championship), and decentralized identity (Humanity Protocol), showcasing Walrus's versatility. Powered by the $WAL token, the ecosystem incentivizes participation through staking rewards, governance, and a deflationary model tied to network usage. Storage fees are paid in $WAL , with burning mechanisms ensuring long-term sustainability. Early adopters benefited from airdrops and subsidies, driving community growth. Looking ahead, Walrus's roadmap emphasizes deeper AI integrations, cross-chain expansions (Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche), and enhanced confidentiality via Seal Protocol. In an era where data is the new oil, Walrus provides the infrastructure for reliable, governable, and monetizable data markets — empowering developers, creators, and enterprises to build the next generation of Web3 applications. Walrus isn't just storage; it's the foundation for a decentralized data economy. A project poised for massive impact in 2026 and beyond. $WAL #Walrus

Here’s a BIG mistake, every #alts investors make ‼️
Most people don’t lose in crypto because they were wrong, they lose after they were right.
You hit a 30x, 40x, even 50x, and something dangerous happens in your head.
You start to feel invincible.
So instead of protecting the win, you gamble it.
You roll all your profit into hype coins, narratives you barely understand, random memes, or “the next big thing” because your brain is still chasing the dopamine from that first win.
And most of the time? You give it all back.
You start to think emotionally rather than logically.
This is exactly how lottery winners go broke.
Not because they didn’t make money, but because they never learned how to keep it.
Same thing with professional athletes.
They earn millions, but many retire broke because they think money is easy to make and often time forgets about protecting their capital and have a saving account.
Big wins create the illusion of permanence.
The fix (boring, but it works)
After a big win:
Stop overtrading. Take a small break. This allows you to stay logical instead of emotional.
80% should go back into stablecoins or back into $BTC
Only 10–20% to ape into new coins if you really find good opportunity.
That way:
You lock in life-changing capital
You stay in the game
You still have exposure to the market.
This is the difference between:
Getting rich once, and staying rich.
The market rewards patience, discipline, and capital preservation, not your ego and emotion.
