The filter this market has put people through over the last couple of years has been brutal. Rugs, collapses, narratives dying, and watching portfolios bleed with no end in sight. Most people haven't survived it, which is why it's quieter than usual. If you're reading this rn and still active, and you're still giving a shit about this space, that makes you very rare. The competition has removed itself from the equation and is wide open in a way it hasn't been for a while. Historically, the people who were still standing at this exact point in the cycle are the same ones you see winning when things take a turn. Not because they're smarter, but because they didn't leave. You've done the hardest part, don't fumble it when the finish line is creeping closer than ever.

the market doesn't test your strategy it tests your soul
