20x Your Crypto Altcoin Portfolio In 2025! [EXACT Roadmap]

• Last cycle saw over a million dollars in gains, but mistakes led to significant losses.
• Key lessons learned through experience can help you avoid common pitfalls this cycle.
• The video outlines 10 crucial points to maximize profit and minimize loss in crypto trading.
• Community and collaboration enhance trading success and knowledge sharing.
• Proper risk management and operational security are vital for protecting investments.

Last cycle I made over a million dollars, but I ended up round tripping most of my gains because of some major mistakes that I made this cycle.

I managed to make that million dollars back and a lot more by following some of the crucial points that I'm going to be discussing in today's video.

So I've combined my past six years of experience in the crypto market into today's video to give you my top 10 things that you have to avoid if you do want to make a lot of money this crypto cycle and avoid losing a lot of money this crypto cycle.

I believe if you watch this entire video, by the end of it you're going to be a much, much better crypto trader and investor.

And the likelihood that you can make a million dollars this cycle significantly increases.

And even if you're not targeting a million, if you're targeting 20k, 50k, 100k, whatever it is, these are the main things that you need to be doing in order to significantly increase your portfolio value.

So if you do enjoy content like this to help you succeed this cycle, and if you do want the latest altcoin and crypto market alpha, make sure you are subscribed by clicking that subscribe button down below and hit that post notification bell so you don't miss a single video.

So the way I'm gonna structure this video is I'm gonna run through 10 points that I believe are absolutely crucial things that you need to avoid in order to succeed this crypto cycle.

And pretty much all of these points have come from personal experience. As I said, I made a lot of money last cycle.

I made over a million dollars and I only invested, I think at one point less than 10k.

Obviously, I increased the amount that I invested throughout the cycle, but in terms of net profits, I made over a million dollars.

But I actually round tripped a lot of it because I made some really big mistakes, especially towards the end of the cycle, which meant my portfolio went back down to maybe, you know, 4,500k.

But this cycle I was able to use that money and significantly increase that stack because I made some tweaks from my learnings from last cycle which have enabled me to get to the position that I'm in now.

And hopefully those learnings help me continue to 5 to 10x my portfolio for the remainder of this cycle.

So if you're in a similar position and last cycle didn't quite work out for you, or maybe this is even your first cycle, I think these lessons are going to fast track your learning.

So my crypto journey started in 2018, when I first discovered cryptocurrency. Obviously, we're in a major bull market close to the peak.

Pretty much everyone comes into crypto at the peak, right? So I came into the market at the peak.

I didn't actually buy any, but that's when I found out about it.

And I had actually put, I think it was $10,000 at the time, into an exchange account, which I just was going to buy crypto with.

But I decided to, whatever reason, not make that purchase.

It wasn't until 2019 that I realized, oh, what happened to that crypto thing? That I was really excited about a year ago and I logged back into my exchange account and I realized I had 10,000 sitting there and bitcoin was significantly down.

I think it was around $5,000.

And that's when I decided to first buy my first bitcoin.

And then the remainder of the money I put into Ethereum and XRP.

So I kind of left those investments sitting there from 2019. Didn't think much of it until 2020 when the market started absolutely exploding.

And in 2020, that was really the birth of DeFi summer.

So now you could take your Ethereum, which was previously useless, and you could do stuff with it.

And that's how I got into the DeFi rabbit hole and then eventually got into all sorts of ecosystems later in that year, in 2021, as the bull market really exploded.

But that's what really piqued my interest in crypto.

Those buys that I made in 2019 significantly repriced to the upside.

And then that really piqued my interest to look further into the sector.

I mean, what better way of getting interested in something than making money, right?

I think that's what got a lot of people interested in the crypto space.

Probably you as well. You see those gains and you're like, wow, this is.

I can make money here. I can make it 5x, I can make a 10x.

And that gets you really excited.

But what happened in 2021 is as I got more and more entrenched in the space, I made more and more money.

You know, that 10k quickly turned into 50 and then 100.

And then I put more money into the space, right?

Cause I was working a job and I was also making money and I had some savings and I was putting all that money in.

And then that turned into eventually, at one point, over a million dollars.

Especially when Luna was really pumping, when Phantom was really pumping, when Solana was really pumping.

I had a big bag of Cardano that I was playing around with.

I had a lot of NFTs.

But eventually I was kind of left not empty handed from that cycle, but significantly worse off than what I was at my peak in terms of paper profits because I made some key mistakes.

I fomoed in at the wrong times into some coins.

I staked assets that I shouldn't have been staking.

So it affected my liquidity to actually de-risk.

When the market started crashing, I wasn't taking profits properly.

So I did end up learning a lot.

And I learned how to actually get good entries in the market because how many bad entries that I got in 2021.

So throughout the bear market, 2022, 2023, and even at the start of this year, I was able to get amazing entries on a lot of altcoins which are now significantly up.

And a lot of these things that I've learned have actually now enabled me to become a better trader, even when I'm not just long term trading, but entering positions for the short term.

So now I want to go through those 10 lessons and I think they're really gonna help you because you don't need to repeat the mistakes that I made.

You don't need to repeat the mistakes that the people that came before me made in the 2017 cycle.

You now have a chance of starting on a fresh slate even if you are new to the market without having to go through the pain of others.

Because you can simply absorb these lessons, apply them and you'll be good to go.

My one piece of advice though as we get into the 10 lessons here is don't ignore a single one of them.

Each of them are equally important. I've got examples for each of them that look at also some charts that are relevant right now.

I think you need to do all of these.

I don't think it's something that you pick and choose like don't just follow lesson one and lesson two and ignore lesson eight or nine because they're all equally as important.

If you just mess up on one of these, you could wreck yourself for the entire cycle.

And if you nail all of these, you can make a lot of money this cycle.

And these are kind of like the rules that I live by whenever I trade.

So let's talk about number one. It's probably the most simple one of this video and it's don't fomo.

I know it sounds so obvious, but most people get wrecked because they FOMO into hot tokens on extreme green days.

So you see a token going up 30, 40, 50%.

And now you have this extreme temptation to buy in even though you probably should be patient and wait for a red day on that coin.

This is a major lesson that I think people get time and time again.

But it's so important because if you fomo in on massive pumps, what this does is it leaves you more exposed during corrections because you have an increased cost basis amongst pretty much all of your entries that you're fomoing into.

And an increased cost basis means that if the market does drop and we do have a wick like we got the other day, you could instantly be down 30% on your buys because you entered at an inflated price.

Now, by the end of the bull run, even if you are buying tops, theoretically you can still make money, but the percentage gains that you make are actually going to be a lot less than if you are just a little bit patient and buy on those red days.

And look, we do get them.

A few days ago we had a massive liquidation wick. This was the perfect day to actually buy.

This wasn't the perfect time to buy as we're heading into a resistance zone.

So very simple things like buying on red days and selling on or taking profits on green days, it sounds so simple, but it really is so important not to have fomo in the market.

I'll use some recent examples of coins that I've personally spoken about that I've shared earlier in my Discord and my YouTube and also relate this to this point of not fomoing because I think there's a lesson here.

I'm gonna use Lucky as an example.

I first called this in the Discord at $4.

It started to run up a couple days later, really aggressively.

Then I called it on the YouTube at $9.

And you know, I've spoken about it multiple times at different prices as well.

But on that first YouTube mention, like people were fomoing in and going crazy and getting really sloppy execution into a huge pump.

Whereas if you waited, you would have gotten many chances.

And even right now is an opportunity to actually get in on a dip.

Now, has my fundamental thesis on Lucky changed since the YouTube video?

No, not at all. The only thing that's changed is the price.

Well, actually the price is the exact same as that first video because it was a $9.

But the price has changed in between, right?

It pumped to 17, then it went to 7, then it went to 13, now it's back at 9.

So my thesis hasn't changed, but your entry might very well change your entry into the dollar buy top blasting versus now at the dollar.

You have a very different execution on that coin, even though the fundamentals are the exact same.

So one part is the fundamentals, but the other part is the execution.

I personally believe this is gonna go higher than $17 at some point in this cycle.

It's sort of my highest conviction lower cap meme coins.

But that doesn't mean that you should implement sloppy execution.

Let's look at another recent coin that I've spoken about, which is Pinlink.

I first shared this in the Discord at 40 cents.

It ran up all the way to $4.40.

Now, if you were buying here and fomoing in, you would already be down, even though I called it really early.

Right?

If you decided to top last, you'd be down 30% as opposed to waiting for these dips that you get into this moving average, which is the four-hour money noodle where you can actually get much better risk-reward entries.

So it's giving you multiple chances because the chart actually looks really good to get in.

And even now is a better opportunity, right, to get in versus what it was a few days ago.

And then you can actually build your position as prices going up underneath a better cost basis.

So instead of blasting on these wicks this week here, this week here, this week here, you'd get better execution getting in on every dip.

And that is generally the way that I like to play the market. You know, the EMP chart looks really similar right now as well.

So if you fundamentally believe in Pinlink, which I do, why not just buy on dips?

Because nothing changes on dips, it's just the price that's changing.

The fundamentals aren't changing.

And it's the same for pretty much every coin that I speak about.

From a fundamental perspective, your prerogative is to get into these coins at the best price possible.

And the way you do that is by not fomoing, it's actually to buy in.

When you do get dips, a lot of these coins and the earlier you are to the information source, the better.

For example, in my Discord, I have a team of researchers, we get into stuff super, super early.

So we've been able to deliver so many amazing calls.

This spreadsheet in front of you actually lists all the recent calls that I made in my alpha channel and has the transparent price performance of these coins from the initial entry.

So when I posted about it to the current price and the peak price.

And you can see that Pinlink from my entry to peak was 563%.

Still up 442%.

Mode was 313%, still up 248%.

EMP 580, 585.

Neural 186 checks, 236 goat 390.

Klaus at one point was 650.

Obviously now it's only up 26%.

But if you're in the Discord, you'd know that I said you should be taking profits on that first pump.

Cause it was absolutely massive.

And you can see a bunch of others as well.

They weren't maybe as high as EMP or Pinlink or mode, but they were still.

There are multiple 100% gainers, for example edge, metus, beam, Super.

There are multiple examples around that 100% range as well.

So we've been absolutely killing it in the Discord.

And what I'm gonna do from now on is have this spreadsheet actually updating regularly so you can transparently see the calls that we do make.

And even if we make bad calls, we're also gonna put it in the spreadsheet.

Because I don't just want to shill my wins, I also want to show you my losses as well.

So I'll refer back to these on the video from time to time.

And I'll also post this in the Discord as well.

And I just want to say a quick thank you to everybody that has been in there and has left amazing messages.

You can see on the feedback page that we do have available in the Discord.

We've had multiple amazing reviews.

Jordan here says, I joined the club just three days ago.

Been in crypto since last cycle, but never joined a paid group.

Decided to go for this one.

Spent $199 and since then I made 10x that on calls.

So that was an amazing message to receive.

That a member could make 10 months worth of subscription back in just three days.

That's absolutely incredible.

You can see Dark Knight here says that the calls are incredible.

I'm up six figures in my first week in the Miles High Club.

But better still is the community.

I love this and I'm stoked to ride this roller coaster with you guys, T mil' and the team.

Thank you for what you're doing here.

I'm so lucky to have found you and I'm pumped for the year ahead together.

So all these amazing pieces of feedback that I'm receiving here have been amazing to see.

And if you do want to come and be a part of the community, there's a link in the description below.

Come and join if you're not happy.

After 10 days, open a support ticket and we'll give you a full refund.

That's how confident I am in the calls and also the education that we have in the group.

So come and be a part of that if you want a place to have amazing early Alpha, but also a place to network and be a part of one of the best communities I think the best community in crypto.

That's another point, by the way, which isn't in this video.

It's doing it together is so much better than doing it alone.

One mistake that I made last cycle is I was a lone wolf, especially for the early parts of the cycle where I was basically operating independently on my trades.

So I suffered from confirmation bias a little bit because I would look for information to verify things.

No one was questioning me.

I probably wasn't leveraging communities enough because when you're on your own, you have to do research on your own.

You have to work out whether something is a good opportunity on your own.

You have to filter your information on your own.

When you're in a group, when you have other especially seasoned analysts who have better skills than you.

Also finding alpha, there are things that you would never think to spot that they're actually spotting.

So it can actually help accelerate the amount of good research that you're able to do and come across.

That's also something that I've implemented with my personal team.

I've been hiring more and more analysts in the Discord and also on a personal level so I can actually find more alpha.

Some people ask like Mars how the calls been so amazing, like do you have a crystal ball?

Some of the calls in the Discord.

But I can't take all the credit.

It's not just me.

I'm combining the brainpower of all my analysts to be able to make these amazing calls because their job is to spot opportunities, present them to me and obviously I filter them and decide whether it's an opportunity we want to take or not.

But having that like communal brainpower has enabled me to do much better this cycle.

And you can basically get the same effect by being in a really curated group like ours.

But basically the TLDR there is just be part of a community, build your own research networks.

I know a lot of people in the Discord what they're doing and this is good alpha for you guys, even if you're not in the Discord.

Is they've been building their own communities.

So there's like thousands of members in the Discord, right?

But they've people have created sub-communities of like 10 to 15 like-minded people.

And they have like private research groups and they meet up each day and they discuss things, they filter calls from the Discord, they analyze them.

Like, how amazing is that?

You can take all the calls and all the trade opportunities and get together each day, be like, do we like this?

Do we not like this?

Why?

Why not?

And then you can do it with people, create your own support group, which not only helps you find better alpha, but also helps you mentally deal with the FOMO which goes back to point number one that the market does give you when prices are pumping.

Because if you have people to help ground you and provide other opinions, it helps eliminate that and get better trading execution.

But now let's move on to point number two, which is don't rush decision-making.

So this is one of my favorite quotes and it basically says that when you're trying to make money, do it slowly.

And when you're trying to protect money, do it quickly.

And the thing is, people often get this the other way around when they try to make money.

And you've probably experienced this.

You want to fomo in really quickly.

And when you're trying to protect money, you'll be slow to take profits or you'll be slow to protect wealth.

It should be the opposite.

Protecting wealth, staying in the game is your number one goal in crypto.

That is actually what leads to gains.

It's not the other way around.

You need to stay in the game in order to actually reap the rewards of this industry.

And the way to do that is through your endeavor to make money slowly, yet protect it really quickly.

This quote is amazing.

I freaking want to frame it and put it on my wall because it's that amazing.

Point number three, don't overrotate.

This is a big mistake people make.

And this is one mistake that I made last cycle.

So what I did is I made a lot of money on Cardano.

Cool.

Let's say I made a 10x, I put that into Solana, made another 10x, then I put that into Phantom, made another 3x.

But then if I put all that money into Luna, then it would end up being zero.

So I don't know if I put all my money into Luna, but I was rotating like a lot, like making profits on one coin.

Then I went to AX, I went to SOL, then I went to this, then I went to that.

It's like a game of hot potato and eventually you'll drop the potato and all your gains are pretty much for nothing.

Or similarly, another detriment of over-rotating is you'll just constantly be chasing the hot coins.

You'll rotate from one narrative to another, from one coin to another.

Then the narrative that you sold will do really well, so you, you'll rotate back.

So let's say gaming's doing really well.

You rotate from AI into gaming, then gaming stalls because you buy the top and then AI is popping again, so you get back into AI and your trading execution just sucks.

So over-rotating is one of the biggest mistakes that I see people making in the market.

Even if you look at sector performance this year, memes have been the dominant narrative, right?

But there were times this year where memes looked dead.

Like I remember there was this lull in around June where everyone was like, aha, the meme cycle's dead.

Even now we're seeing it like utilities are running and memes are quiet.

Everyone, it's like, ah, memes are dead.

But then they come back and they come back and they come back.

If you're rotating every time to try and get back into memes and out of them, back into DeFi and out of them, okay, maybe for an expert trader, maybe you can do that.

But the average person is better off just positioning, buying high conviction stuff across the narratives they believe in.

Especially when prices are down and you're getting dips and just holding.

Because at some point you know, memes are gonna come back.

And it's kind of been the same thesis with gaming throughout the cycle.

Right, we know, okay, gaming hasn't pumped yet, but at some point it probably will.

So let's allocate some money in super and, and beam and stuff like that.

And they've done really well now.

So over-rotating is the biggest mistake I see people make in the market or one of them.

And the way to stop that is to have conviction in all the assets you buy and also to not hop between one narrative to another.

Just stay resolute in your conviction and accumulate those alts and hold them.

You can rotate a little bit, like I make rotations from time to time.

But don't do it too flippantly and be very purposeful when you want to make a rotation.

And always ask yourself, you know, at the end of the cycle, is this coin gonna outperform or is this coin gonna outperform and go with the one that you think has the higher long-term potential, not always the higher short-term potential.

Point number four and this kind of goes on from point number three.

You don't want to over-rotate, but you also don't want to over-diversify.

This is a big problem that I see.

People have too many alts.

When I did my portfolio reviews in the Discord a few weeks ago, I saw people with 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 alts in their portfolio.

I personally believe a core portfolio of 10 to 15 alts is optimal.

Now I personally hold more than that.

But I'm also full-time crypto and I'm also in a position with what I've built that I can afford to spray and pray a little bit more.

But for the average person that's not full-time crypto and is dealing with less capital, you're better off concentrating.

So concentrating like 10 to 15 assets, it can be even less than that because that's how you build wealth.

And then use diversification as a tool to protect wealth.

So let's say your goal is to get to 100k.

You might have 10 coins to get you to 100k,

but then at 100k, you might diversify for the next leg of the cycle because you don't want to round trip your gains and you want to protect yourself a little bit through market volatility.

You might underperform a little bit more now because you're basically investing in a market index, but you are now protecting your wealth versus concentrating it.

And it's the same thing with asset managers, right?

People usually have their big break by starting a big business, getting big into real estate, hitting it on crypto, and then they diversify their assets later.

They buy treasury yields, they buy gold, they buy bonds, they buy equities, they buy real estate, they buy property, they buy crypto.

All of these investments diversify their assets to allow them to maintain their wealth.

But that's on the protection front.

When they actually build that wealth, they often do it by concentration.

So what you can do is if you're bullish in AI, pick like two or three AI positions you're really bullish on.

And you can also barbell it.

So you can have your core portfolio which is 70 or 80% of each sector and then 20% can be spray and pray.

But what you're really tracking and managing is your core portfolio that might only have 2 to 3 AI coins and 2 to 3 real-world coins, right?

And then you can spray and pray for the rest of it, but that doesn't count.

That's not part of your core portfolio.

I think mentally.

Something that can really help you guys as well is actually diversifying how you look at them.

So don't have all your tokens on one spreadsheet or one coin stats.

Separate it.

So you have your core portfolio and one spreadsheet and then your spray and pray portfolio on another.

And it's weighted and they're weighted against each other instead of having it all on one list.

Because if you have one big list of 60 altcoins, it's gonna stress you out.

It's gonna be too hard to manage.

It's better to actually separate these.

In an ideal world, you actually just hold less altcoins and are a little bit more purposeful when you enter a position.

Cause if you're not purposeful, you'll end up buying something that you don't really have conviction in.

And then when a dip comes, you're gonna end up panicking.

I had someone messaging me today about Lucky like, oh, is Lucky dead?

It's like, well you must have not had conviction when you bought it because nothing has changed in the past few weeks.

Like same with Pinlink.

People like Miles, is Pinlink crashing?

Well, it's ran up so much.

Obviously at some point it's gonna cool down.

Has your fundamental conviction changed?

You know, if you're even asking that question, you probably never had fundamental conviction to begin with.

You probably just bought in on a whim or because your favorite content creator is speaking about it.

You shouldn't even do that with me.

Even if you really respect me, don't just buy what I say.

Take my advice with a grain of salt.

Look into it a bit further.

If I mention an altcoin, decide whether you believe in that thesis and then buy it if it aligns with your general market strategy.

You don't just buy because I talked about it and it's the same for every creator in the space.

Moving on to point number five out of ten.

Don't get greedy.

Crypto gains ultimately are paper gains until they're realized.

So life-changing money isn't life-changing money unless you actually take it out of crypto and change your life with it.

This cycle I actually took out enough money that is basically protecting my psyche against the market.

So I just put into the real world a certain amount that was over a million dollars, which I think if crypto theoretically went to zero, which I don't think it will, but if something happened, I still, I am gonna have enough money to live on basically for the rest of my life or support my lifestyle.

So I think this obviously not all of you are in that position.

I'm not expecting you to be.

But if you can, if you make a lot of money in crypto, take out enough so that it protects against the emotions of trading.

So what's an amount for you that helps hedge against that?

Always make sure you have real money, don't have your full net worth in crypto.

Yes, my net worth is heavily skewed towards crypto, but I'm also funneling money out into the real world as well so I'm not fully exposed to the market and so I can actually change my life and not just make life-changing money on paper.

And that was something I did like last bull run where I had a lot of life-changing money on paper, but you know, I ended up round tripping a lot of it.

It is a hard balance because you want to maximize your edge while we have it.

I think we have a huge edge right now.

So there is this like temptation to be all in.

But I also know I don't do my best trading when I'm all in.

Like I like to keep 20 to 25% of stables at all times during the cycle and that only increases as the cycle progresses.

As opposed to being all in because then I end up trading badly because I'm trading emotionally.

When the market dips, I'm not able to buy more.

And when, you know, things pump, I get too greedy and that happens because I'm all in.

So ideally you're not all in.

And ideally you have an income outside of crypto which can support your investing in crypto and make it a little bit less emotional for you.

Lesson number six is don't get complacent.

If you hit a big winner, lock in some gains, you could round trip sooner than you think.

I personally like to use an incremental profit-taking system as an altcoin goes up in price as opposed to trying to time the top.

I think people make this mistake a lot.

They make big gains on a coin and they just assume because it's been doing well, it'll continue to do well.

And yes, you should always keep a moon bag in your winners, but make sure you lock some profits and the percentage that you take per in percentage increment depends on the stage and the cycle and your bullishness on that token and the valuation of that token.

What do I mean by that?

You for Pinlink you could say, okay, every time it goes up 100%, I'm gonna take 30% off the table.

That's a rule.

For Solana, every time it goes up because it's a larger cap, it might be every time it goes up 50%, I take 50%.

That's a bit more aggressive but the numbers are lower because it's a larger cap and it's likely not going to do 100% multiples very regularly.

So have those predetermined multiples that profit-taking plan when you enter a position, not just creating it on a whim as price continues to go up.

If you look closely, you'll notice that even those who appear to be the best among you are slowly letting the threads of their risk management unravel.

Enjoy the bull market, but don't let it lull you into complacency.

It's later than your favorite influencer would have you believe.

I think this is good advice.

I would kind of argue about the later thing.

It's well, it's interesting the way you look at it.

In terms of time, it is late because the cycle is in its final stage.

But in terms of percentage gains, it's not late because the most aggressive gains happen towards the end of the cycle.

So I guess it depends on how you look at it.

But in terms of being lulled to complacency, I agree.

If you have made profits, make sure you actually take profits off the table.

And don't just focus on your buy plan, also focus on your sell plan.

And I've got one for myself personally.

I'm around 20% stables now and I'm trying to progressively go heavier into stables as the cycle goes on.

This is money that will never go back into crypto.

Like 20% will be my minimum for the remainder of the cycle and it will go up to 40%.

And if there's a big macro indicator shift that prompts me to derisk a large percentage that could even go even higher.

Number seven, this is important.

Don't use leverage.

Leverage is actually a tool that should be implemented to increase capital efficiency which in turn reduces risk.

But a lot of people just use it for the sake of taking on more risk.

So only use leverage trading if you're extremely experienced and if you need the benefits of capital efficiency.

What do I mean by capital efficiency?

Well, let's say you have $100,000 but you're staking 90k of it or you're in a trade that's worth 90k that you want to stay in a spot trade.

So you only want to use 10k but you want but you have high conviction on that trade.

So Instead of selling something to put in a 400k, you can just do 10k on 10x, for example.

Get exposure to the upside.

If you're really confident on that trade without having to sell that other position or, you know, unstake a position or something like that, that's unlocking capital efficiency.

But most of you are just doing it, I think, based on what I see, just to take on more risks so you can make more money, which makes no sense.

If you're in that position.

Don't use leverage.

Leverage will get you wrecked.

And I've experienced this even this year.

Like, I've had pretty much sleepless nights where I'm thinking about a position too much.

If that's ever happening to you, that's a signal that you're too heavy in that position.

Like, there's been times where I've been in a position and I'm really worried about it.

And that's just because I put too much in that.

That's the reality.

If you're worried about any position, even spot, you have too much in it.

And maybe you need to review your portfolio.

Maybe you have too much in crypto.

If you're getting worried whenever there's a 20, 30% dip, maybe you have too much in crypto.

Honestly, because crypto is risky.

Things can drop a lot quickly.

Things rug.

Things happen.

I hope you're prepared for that.

Even coins that I speak about, I might hit 10 winners.

The 11th could do terribly.

Something could happen, something I don't know that even my DD checks haven't found could come to the surface.

I don't know that stuff all the time.

There's far too much volatility all the time.

So you have to make sure you're prepared for that mentally.

Number eight, don't panic during flushes.

In fact, you should be doing the opposite because shakeouts represent the best risk-reward entries in the market.

So when these flushes do occur, use these as opportunities to actually scale into the market and not opportunities to panic, because flushes are the best risk rewards that you're gonna get in a bull run to make money.

We've gotten one over the last week, and we've seen price already rebound 17% from that instantly and the altcoins like 30 to 50%.

So these flushes are massive opportunities, and you should really capitalize on them and not panic.

That was something that I felt in 2021.

I do remember there were days, especially in May, when we had this big correction where you'd question whether the bull market was over and you get really panicky.

And those are actually the best accumulation opportunities before the November peak.

So keep that in mind when there's a crash.

Unless the macro indicators have shifted, unless the macro environment has shifted, balancer probabilities suggest that those dips are likely good opportunities to buy.

Lesson number nine, and this is a big one that I learned from last cycle, don't lock tokens.

I remember a time when I was in every single phantom farm, every single lunar farm ran has this story ran from crypto bana about Luna where he lost over $100 million.

And the reason he lost that much money is because he was locked in his lunar positions for 21 days.

Because if you staked it, you couldn't unstake.

So when the drama started to unravel, he basically couldn't do anything.

It was useless because of the 21 day unstaking period.

So when you lock tokens it's an issue because of liquidity.

So if you are gonna stake anything, make sure it's a liquid pool and make sure there's no impermanent loss on that pool.

And I learned this lesson a lot.

I was massive into DeFi.

I still am to some extent but the pools I'm in now are the generally speaking, the single-sided pools and the ones that are liquid.

So I'm not, you know, locking or staking.

A lot of people suffered with Curve last cycle as well.

They were locking all their Curve last cycle basically to get this additional yield.

But what is the point of the yield?

If you can't sell a token and de-risk in time to protect your principal capital, then your yield's going to be less, right?

So don't fall for staking this cycle.

I think most of you aren't going to, but there are some out there that are probably considering staking a bunch of money and that's not something I would be doing this cycle unless it's a liquid pool.

And point number 10, this isn't the one that people want to hear about or talk about because it's not fun.

But don't ignore opsec.

So don't keep all your funds in a single centralized exchange.

Ideally use a hardware wallet.

Store your seed phrase wisely.

There are multiple articles online and suggestions.

I don't think there's one concrete solution to the seed phrase problem yet because everyone has a flaw.

But obviously there are more advanced strategies that you can use.

Splitting your seed phrase up, implementing all sorts of advanced strategies to actually protect yourself even more, spreading across multiple ledgers etc.

So that's something you need to make a decision on personally.

But definitely don't just put it on your phone or on the cloud or in your notes or in your email.

That's dumb.

Make sure to actually have it physically somewhere or, or use the solution to actually protect that.

So that's one thing you have to keep in mind.

Don't click malicious links.

This is all simple stuff, right?

Always use a ledger.

Don't click malicious links.

But you'd be surprised how many people store all their money on hot wallets or have all their money in a centralized exchange.

Um, especially if you're in certain countries, you gotta even be wary about taking your main phone out.

Like if you're holding a lot of crypto and your face ID and, and you're walking around London like, my friend got his phone stolen in London.

Mine almost got stolen off me.

But I don't bring my main phone out with me.

So you have to protect against that stuff because if you have your main phone and it's got face ID, someone could do something.

They can drug you.

I heard a story, a friend of mine actually got drugged and had his crypto wallets drained in his bank account stolen.

Luckily he didn't have much crypto in there.

But if you have a lot like that happens, you get targeted, especially public figures like me.

But anyone can, right?

If someone overhears you talk about crypto in a bar, which happens, I mean you're a target if, even if it's on your phone.

So this is all stuff to think about.

I'm not gonna have all the solutions for you today, but the main point I want to make is just think about it, just like critically look over all your processes.

And I do this periodically as well.

I'll critically look, okay, if someone did want to attack me or if um, or if I make a mistake, like what is vulnerable right now.

And then you can reverse engineer that and fix those vulnerabilities.

So I highly recommend paying attention to this as well.

But those are my 10 points for today.

Hopefully you learned something.

A bit of a different video, less market related, but I wanted to come and give you some alpha that is hopefully gonna hold you in good stead for the rest of the cycle.

If you do want early Alpha and if you want access to all our educational resources, come and join the Mars High Club.

Be a part of that amazing community.

As I mentioned before, we've been doing really, really well.

Hopefully we can continue to do it because we have an amazing research team and it's been amazing to see all of the feedback that we've seen in the channels here.

So I'll leave a link in the description below to that.

I'm not uploading tomorrow because I need to recharge a little bit on a Saturday, but I'll be back in full force on Sunday for another week of uploads.

Hopefully you enjoy the Alpha this week.

I'll see you in the next one.

Have a lovely rest of your day.

Peace out.
