Zig Forums how do you deal with a guilty conscience? I'll have made over 1mil this year after taxes just from going degen long on crypto a couple of times. I will be richer than actual PhD engineers designing computer chips and advancing technology. How do you guys cope with the fact that you are doing something totally useless but getting hilariously rich?
This shit is literally too fucking easy, I just wait for a chart setup or some news and click the green button and a couple days later I'm up mid six figures.

Jack Hernandez
What's your strat bro? I wanna go long on BTC but kinda scared
Lincoln Diaz
Don't hate the individuals hate the system
For example, people like epstein should be tortured to death in minecraft, but he's just a symptom of the political system
William Mitchell
In not larp congrats user. You didn't invest in failing institutions and rigged games. You are a pioneer of our time and have been rewarded for it.
Angel Ross
Op, how do i do it? I have around 10k, is there any way to X it without waiting 10 years for bitcoin appreciation?
Camden Carter
>This shit is literally too fucking easy, I just wait for a chart setup or some news and click the green button and a couple days later I'm up mid six figures You are full of shit the only time where crypto was that "easy" was in late 2017 to early 2018. t. 2013
Lincoln Collins
Go to a temple and press x on the altar like in video games
Zachary Bennett
I don't see any problem. You assumed risk others weren't willing to. And providing liquidity and capital to the cryptomarket is definitely not useless.
$1 million is not hilariously rich you btfo larping faggot asshole.
David Sanders
55k linky here I hamstered it in my brain as me being a leet high iq investor who bought early because i'm smart. My IQ is 140 tested, but desu I'm a complete brainlet and missed lots of obvious moon missions, haven't even read the whitepaper unironically. I do understand memetics and how Zig Forums works

I do a mix of fundamentals, ta, and news. Most recent trade was selling everything and shorting 200 BTC when the USA fud came out and relonging in the mid 16s when the longs were fully cleared out and 16k held. My biggest win was longing the shitload out of 11.2k in October after seeing all the on chain data, the US dollar chart, and the bullish news coming out, and just stop buying when the first high was broken. Closed it with an average of low 17s. Also bought a fuckton of ripple recently when it made an inverse head and shoulders and I knew about the fork coming up. I literally have no strategy I just have a couple tactics I use and wing it as I go along.
Eli Jones
honestly i really think about this a lot. i dont have a massive stack and do not want to risk it all. i could not recover from that.
i could play it conservative but it would take so long to get anywhere.
Ian Brown
I feel worse as I get richer. Maybe its also because I know about how rigged the game is yet will probably never have enough money to make a difference. The most the jews will let us make from this is 50mm-100mm tops.
Christian Wilson
So TA in crypto works?
Luis Garcia
send me some money and I'll tell you 5 secrets to overcome rich guilt.
Liam Stewart
nice LARP, go to sleep wagie
Asher Sullivan
I like to have a narrative to use along with TA that is backed up by solid real world metrics and media. But yes. Just manage risk so you have enough ammo for the next sure thing.
Chase Brown
this. if you've already made enough just stop trading and hold. you have a guaranteed 10M in future money if you just hold btc and eth.
Daniel Hall
your weaponised autism is producing value in the free market, the degen trading is the simplest manifestation.
Cameron Watson
I'm long right now (just a little bit net over my spot holdings) waiting for a couple of things to happen before I make a really super degenerate buy. Either an obvious long term consolidation at highs that breaks up, or retesting the 20 weekly EMA. There isnt much good news left besides maybe ETF approval but that isnt likely anyway. There will be loads of USA fud next year and you can probably get some really juicy shorts in when BTC is making new highs and everyone is in denial about the fud for a couple hours.
Ethan Myers
>shorting $4,000,000 of the most volatile currency known to man God I hope one day you lose everything because you’re a degenerate gambler. kys
Ian Allen
I was late to the party. I threw in 10k in late 2017, traded up to 40k by early january and then lost most of it over the course of the year. I did sort of shit in 2019 but managed to trade up my capital back to start taking risks in 2020. Maybe it's just experience and cutting losses earlier. Like, I lost 10k gambling on kucoin shitcoins in spring-summer 2018
Caleb Young
It wasn't easy and I was freaking out until it started dumping. But my portfolio was worth about 2.7 mil up there so it wasnt a huge percentage extra beyond a hedge.
Christian Russell
by thinking about e-thots making even more than Zig Forumsnessman
Caleb Miller
E-thots are fucking degenerate though. I only want an emotional and spiritual connection with a woman who will become my soulmate forever.
Christopher Lee
I was looking at this girl's facebook I used to know from high school. I went back in time to early 2010s when I knew her, and traced her development from normal suburban teenage girl back then into an SJW shitlib through college and the trump years. It was pretty sad actually. She has a shitty intern job and probably makes 30k a year or some shit. I feel good about that I guess. She married this ugly half mexican looking guy.
Carter Moore
op.. are just gambling... i feel like you are hope it ends well for you but right now I think you're just on a lucky streak, no?
James Green
A lot of us did the right thing our whole lives, went to good schools, worked hard etc and then when we hit the real world, we got hit with the blackpilled reality that we no longer live in a merit based system, and that it's all about who you know and how rich your parents are. Whoever invented Bitcoin is literally doing a favor to every single intelligent person that's getting fucked over by the current post-industrial system we are living in right now.
That's a good way to look at it. Thanks for the whitepill fren.
Also LINK is a good buy at these levels.
Thomas Kelly
How much is your leverage? What is your news source?
Jacob Richardson
Do you have some advice? I started flippin shitcoins with 1k usd in april of this year. Managed to flip up to 100k, but now i am stuck at ~25k for last three months. How I can up my game?
Adrian James
Wether you’re rich or not, Wether you make 100million or not you will live a bad life if you’re a soft, weak touch as a man, you’ll forever be a mark.
Samuel Wilson
i hate how this post is directly speaking to me, why are you doing this user, giving me hope i got thrown into the real world and got fucked without any warning, then gf cheated, depression hit, then wanted to get better but covid hit i feel like if i don't take advantage of the clown market i wont make it out of this ... yet i do nothing much bros hold me
good points
Connor Harris
You use leverage?
Cameron Roberts
what did you start with? why don't you cash out? a million is a lot.
John Lopez
News source is a couple private groups im in mostly, and twitter.
Leverage? I don't know. I size based on risk. For the october trade I was willing to risk 10% of my portfolio on a 1% stop, so it was about 10x.
Juan Green
how do you find these shitcoins to flip
please bro im desperate spit some game to me
James Gonzalez
I'm not really a shitcoin flipper. I dabble sometimes if I get a tip, but I lost so much money gambling on shitcoins in 2018 that I avoid them now. The liquidity is also garbage and I like trades I can market dump in or out of if I need to with these amounts of money. Sorry user but its not my game.
Yes
>what did you start with? 10k in november 2017 >why don't you cash out? Still living at home with my parents and dont need to. I have a big chunk of my funds on legitimate banked exchanges in case the leveraged platforms go down, but that's it. >a million is a lot. Not really
Julian Ross
>i got thrown into the real world and got fucked without any warning, then gf cheated, depression hit, then wanted to get better but covid hit sorry to hear that user. I think cheating should be illegal and punishable by death.
Parker Russell
How do you think those private groups have affected your trades? Would you have such success without those?
When markets crashed this year I started to watch real people with real economics PhD providing analysis on the market, my initial strategy was to wait for the vix to start to decline and then long SPX500, but I keep seeing those enlightened fucktards say it would dump more, so I waited, and waited, and it didn't dumped, I lost most of the bull-run and fucked up trades with too much leverage later on. If I fallowed my initial strategy I would had a 3x profit safely by now. Right now I have taken back the money I lost, and it was with a bot that I made for bitcoin
Jose White
>How do you think those private groups have affected your trades? Would you have such success without those? I'd say most of the benefit from those groups is the twitter guys they put me onto, and some analysis they repost. I've found tons of twitter guys and sometimes there will be a piece of news or analysis that pans out. But the actual guys in paid groups that shill TA, or even traditional TA personalities like flood or crypto cobain or whatever? Fuck no. They only worked in December 2017 when literally everything you did would make money.
