Why People Defend Bad Projects for Too Long?? 👀

Published

Description

One of the most common — and least talked about — behaviors in crypto… is how long people hold onto things that clearly aren’t working anymore. Projects lose momentum. Narratives fade. Attention moves on. But instead of letting go… people double down. Defend harder. Stay attached longer than they probably should. So why does that happen? Tonight’s stream breaks down why people defend bad projects for too long — and what that reveals about identity, emotion, and decision-making in crypto. We’re getting into: • why letting go is harder than it looks • how identity gets tied to investments • why people double down instead of moving on • how social environments reinforce bad decisions • and what changes when you start seeing the behavior clearly This isn’t just about bad projects. It’s about why people struggle to detach from them. Live 8:30 PM ET 🪙 SUBSCRIBE!! 📢 Join the Discord! 🔥Like the stream to push it into the algo! 🧠 Crypto IQ — Learn Faster.

I don't want >> All right, what's up everybody? Welcome to Underground Crypto Deep Dive Research Show. Do we have one heck of a show for you today and I'm not late, you are. You're late, not me. Yeah, I'm running a couple of minutes behind here. It has been one heck of a day. We have done it all, man. 3 hours of sleep. We've moved furniture for people. We've ran

hundreds of packages to the store. We chatted in the voice chat. We've traded. Done all kinds of things. Trying to get my talking voice to work, of course. But I'm excited. Yesterday's stream 4 and 1/2 hours, man. How about that, guys? Can't nobody say I don't show up. And it's not like we just sat around and stared at, you know, chart moving up and down. We were constantly moving the whole time. Lots of stuff going on. We did Flare ecosystem, the news, what's trending, our airdrop stuff. We added the Arc airdrop as well as the Robinhood airdrop. Yes, I'm just making conversation while I'm trying to get this to load. All right, it's finally loading. And we did a lot of stuff. How's everybody feeling? Everybody drop something in the chat about how you feel about the market right

this second. Like, bottom's in, we're heating up, tell me something. Tell me how you feel about where we are right now in the market. That's what I want to know. All right, now we're ready to kick off. I do apologize for the delay, guys. I am one tired SOB right now, but we're not going to let that affect us and we're not going to let it affect our energy. We're going to keep it going. Woah, there I am. All right, let's go. Crypto Bubbles where we kick off the stream. And uh Underground Crypto needs some coffee. That's what he needs. I think I've earned I've earned some coffee today. Siren, look at that. Siren doing 22% and somehow has positioned itself in the top 100. I don't get it. Maybe it's a cloud bot kind of thing and everybody's

obsessed with it. I don't know. And what's going on in my chat? How's everybody doing? We got Chris Ghost is says 333, my fellow lifer. Today was the lifer's birthday. Shout out to him. We love Sam. Um man, I I just couldn't say enough good things about that guy. He is amazing. Uh good evening, ladies and gents. Melissa says, "Hello." Camsta, ayo, what's up? Where's Blues Guy? See Reliable J, Cryptic Quinton says, "Num dudes don't feel taking it day by day." Well, that's a good answer. I respect that answer. I really do. And I'm optimistic, but I'm definitely a realist and I'm definitely taking it day by day. I'm in a short, been in a short all day. Uh I don't know if I've really lost any money, but so far I turned $10 into like 16. I'm hoping

to add another dollar to that. And as you know, it's much harder to turn $10 into $20 than it is to turn $100 into $200. Like the smaller the the amount of money, the more difficult it is to double it, right? Cuz if you make one wrong move, you pretty much destroy your chances and start from like what? 50 cents, a dollar? Now it's really difficult. All right, we got Monad up 11.8%. Shout out to Melissa. I don't know why it's become synonymous. Flare with Blues Guy, Monad with Melissa. Everybody pick a coin and we'll just associate you with it. That's how you can get your shout-outs on this channel. Dash 12.9%. Can't network 6.8%. A lot of upside here. Zcash, I know that in the voice chat if you don't know if you like to do some trading

or something like that or you just like to hang out with some good people, you you might want to join the Discord and hang out in the voice chat like one big group phone call where we got a lot of things cooking. There's some lot of really cool things coming, guys, to this community. Shout-out to Mumba for putting that together. Um yeah, you guys will know when it comes, right? Uh Crypto Cryptic Quinton says, "Damn, I need a coin." Hey, hey, pick one and uh talk about it every day and then I'll associate you with it, right? Uh Zcash up 13.2%. Went as high as I almost read the volume like it was the price. Now, $380 right now, it's at 364. XMR still catching a little bit of wind here. I think Zcash is kind of the clear

winner. It was Zcash that had all the people leave, right? All the supposed developers that left and they really crashed it right there at the end. I don't know if that was as legit as maybe it was, you know, a forward public facing thing. Anyways, XMR is up 5%. My coin is Hamster. I don't think that's a real coin, man. You're going to have to give me a ticker. No one beats the hamster. All right, hamster camster. Uh I'm going to need a ticker for that coin though or it's not legit. Morpheus, Arbitrum, ICP just is in the top 100s. I think that's crazy. I hope somebody made a bunch of money off of this. I never did figure it out. Melissa got farther than anybody with it. Um it did some ridiculous stuff. Is this the right one?

Yeah, or no. This is just. There's just and then there's USDJ. That's what I'm thinking of. All right, let's drop that on another 100. So, if we toggle this drop down here on the crypto bubbles, right? You can see the percentages for the day and they're kind of all over the place. 1 through 100, 1.7. Uh 100 to 200, 3.9. 200 to 300, 1.2. 300 to 400, 1.7. So, you kind of get the gist. This 100 to 200 really the biggest with the Rave DAO. Now, why Rave DAO gets a bunch of attention and people are excited about it to be honest with you, no idea. They're going to do raves in real life. I know that there's a Vegas conference coming up. What Bitcoin conference I think is coming up too in Miami. I don't know. I don't

know why people are excited about this or at least the coin. I don't know how money's going to get into the coin. It's just exposure. But, it's so the crypto influencers can rave after their conferences if they want to. I don't know. A lot of the crypto influencers I see don't strike me as people who are going to be raving. Uh ham USD, there you go. ZBCN has been shotgunned by Bala. Okay, sure. Whatever that means. Uh Kempster's all in the sauce of all of the influencers. He's always talking about one or two of them. What's the What's that mean, Kempster? We don't know. Uh that's his coin he talks about. Okay. Blues has Flare. All right, I'll let him have it. There you go. Anything else is up for grabs, literally. Underground is all about meme core, I

guess. I do I do with meme core a lot. I don't know why I'm cursing today, but I like it. Uh probably cuz I have 3 hours of sleep. I've got like a normal night of sleep in the last 3 days divided up. I'm going to wait until that Tron coin goes down. Then I'll jump into it. Oh, Tron? Oh, you talking about USDJ. I don't know anything about it. Has the craziest low amount of volume. Don't overbuy, right? I'd play with like $10 because there's a good chance it's going to go up and you're not going to be able to get your money out. I don't know. If that thing was printing like that, somebody over there in that ecosystem would know about it. But Rave DAO just ran from 30 cents to a dollar 12. I'mma be

honest, probably short this thing back down to the ground, but I probably won't. Somebody else can take advantage of it. VVV is a very nice token, actually. I've been watching it for a while. It's up 13.7% today from $6.63 to $7.75. Ultima, Centrifuge up 12.5%. Uh shout out to Bankroll, man. Bankroll's been crushing it. He had 10 Yeah, 10 longs going today and they were like all green. Shout out to him. He's been killing it and going hard. We've got Pith, uh Theta, Comp, some names I haven't seen in a while for sure. Aerodrome, love to see that. Grass, if you would like to trade your bandwidth. You already pay for your internet, right? If you'd like to take some of the bandwidth when you're not using it and let Grass use it for AI resources and get a

little bit of their points and things that will eventually hopefully be worth some tokens and stuff. I I keep meaning to check on it and I haven't. I've been in it for a while. Uh do that and use my link in the description. It's uh it's a cool way to use what you already pay for and try to get a little bit more out. I've had it for forever. I've never had any security issues. I haven't had I've never noticed it like slowing down my computer. I run the stream. I've got like 30 tabs open. Never had a problem. Um Yeah, I don't know if you can consider that like a full endorsement or anything, but it seems good on my end. I'm rocking with it. Uh Consensus Miami, who's going? Uh Reliable J, man, what are those tickets?

I'm going to go to the meet up for sure cuz I already RSVP'd to that. I mean, it's so close. How could I not go? Will I actually go to Miami Consensus or Consensus Miami? I don't know. I don't know what the tickets are. And uh I don't even know when it is. It's hard for me to keep up with all that stuff. I kind of wanted to go to Vegas, but I I just can't swing it. I was gone, you know, the other weekend and stuff. I got too much stuff going on. Ark 20.4% AI Rig Complex. Hey, this token did pretty well. I said that I kind of liked it when we went over it. Blur 18.3% Engine 18 and you could just see Mina up 11%. I would love to see Mina just bang I have

some old money in this coin. At one point it was worth like $800. Um, it's been a long time since it's been worth that. I don't even know what I bought it for, all that good stuff. Let's keep this show moving. If I seem like I'm a little spacey, it's it's because I am. I tried to catch a little cat nap, and that just messed me all up. And I tell you, 8:30 came way too fast. All right, VVV has Venice to Venice in its name. So cultural. It's funny cuz the town over from me, where I actually work most of the time, it's where I worked today, uh, is Venice. All that coffee slaps. All right. 2.5 trillion in market cap, up 1% in the market cap. Love it. Let's trend back to 3 trillion dollars. How about

that? Can we all agree on that? Let's make that happen. I know all of you guys got some bread. Throw it in the market. Let's get back to 3 trillion dollars. Bitcoin $71,941. Let's just call it 72,000. Um, I am short. Let's pull that up. We can interrupt the countdown for these trades, because I know everybody loves these loves loves the trades. I'm up 66 cents, or 5%. It's good. I was actually like negative $3. Of course, this pump that we had right here, I love how you have to click on everything like four times. And the plug-in here, this pump, of course, I was working, and uh, and my trade went totally south on me. And then I lucked out, and it did like nothing but dump for the most part after that. I was trying to get

at least a dollar out of it, but it looks like it's trending back up to the 200, probably going to break the 200 and crush my dreams. Looks like maybe when I was napping for 30 minutes, we did get to about a dollar profit. Oh well, I'm not stressing. I'm trying to turn $10 into $20 and use patience and diligence, low leverage. I consider 17x low leverage. That is somewhat disputed, you know, some people consider four x leverage a good leverage. I mean, sure, if you have a crap ton of money, maybe that works for you. Doesn't work with $10, I'll tell you that. You'll be making 20 cents at a time. And maybe that's what I need. Maybe that's the patience and discipline that I need. All right, he said Reliable J says 1K. I already forgot. He

gave me the answer, I forgot the question. Oh, yeah, he's saying for um yeah, Consensus Miami. Probably going to pass on that. I got a lot of things I need to do with 1K. I literally have to spend 1K to fix the freaking air conditioning in one of my vehicles. So, I'll be doing that for sure. And then I have a tiny bit more money that I'd like to deploy, that I've set aside to deploy into this market, and I'd like to spend that that 1K that I deploy into the market or whatever could be worth a heck of a lot more. Oh, wait, I hadn't refreshed. We're not up 66 cents. We are negative 10 cents. All right, we'll be monitoring that throughout the stream. Been in that short quite a while. Anyways, yeah, I'm looking forward to

building that portfolio. Tab in the Discord, bottom of the bear market buys. One tab is showing what we've come up with so far. The other tab is actually for the chat. The first one you're not going to be able to message in. You want the one that says chat at the end. That's the one where you can drop your recommendations. And we're probably going to do a huge segment in the stream. Shout out to the few people who came over to the members only uh part of the stream. That will be pretty much every day, regular practice, right? We're going to play some slots. We went Flare ecosystem stuff. We staked some Flare. We did all kinds of stuff over there. Um we did a couple other things and I off top of my brain, I don't remember what

they are. But that is where we will be doing the member-only part of the show. So if you want that, tell me that I'm worth $3 and uh buy that membership. Get those custom emojis, right? XRP $1.34, BNB $602, Solana 83 bucks, Dogecoin 9 cents, Hyperliquid $39.97, Cardano 25 cents, Chainlink $8.95, XMR $344, Zcash $366, Canton Network uh 15 cents, Memecoin holding strong at number 23 at $2.64. Uh what is it? Bankroll said he found this coin at like 5 cents. Man, if you only he would have held that, he would have been really up. Avalanche $9.33. The stuff we buy when we're trading and or holding spot or whatever that we end up selling for a profit and thinking we did well and then later it's like, you know, 50X higher and you're like, probably should have just

held that. But then you hold the coins long-term and they do nothing. So sometimes it feels like no matter what you choose, you lose. HBAR uh just chilling slightly under 9 cents. We back to 92 cents. BitTensor 286. Very mixed on the 7-day between things being up and down. Very interesting. World Liberty Finance, they've been they've been dumping that thing just to spite spite the president maybe. I don't know because it is definitely very different chart from everything else and there's no real reason for that. Let's go down and take a look for I don't think there's been any big news about it. Flare number 68 still in the top 100, we love to see that. Where is my blues guy? Uh vehicle maintenance is always fun. Oh, yeah. Reliable Jay is he he would know all about that.

Yeah, this They totaled my other car over an AC issue. Has anybody ever heard of this? Absolutely bananas. Reliable Jay's probably heard of this um you know it when it they just decide they've spent too much money on the vehicle. Yeah, they literally totaled my vehicle over an AC issue. That is it's just blows my mind, but hey, it is what it is. Let's go to the Crypto Market Insight and Analytics. And today's stream, the whole series has been about emotional intelligence, right? And today's stream is why people defend bad projects for too long. I thought that was hilarious. I thought it would be a super fun show. I think that there's we all in crypto, even if we don't directly know somebody in person, we all know somebody who's just a huge fan of a crap project that

hasn't done anything in a really long time and they still love to talk about it like like it's uh like it's going to do something and they can't see the writing on the wall. And who knows, maybe they're the ones doing all the laughing at the end and we look dumb. But um probably not. Says, "If I was down there, I'd fix it for free, bro." Reliable Jay, you would be godsend if that was possible, but I understand there's some distance. But I I'm hopefully you're moving to Florida at some point, man, so we can powwow. I won't ask you to fix my cars for free, bro, but um I would love to hang out with you. Says, "Will want AC for summer time." Oh, yeah, we're already there. It's already hot. Um Bankroll in the building. I was

just talking about you and your 10 trade strong today, man. I think it's going well for you, right? I'm around getting locked into the charts through much love all though much love all. Absolutely back at you, Bankroll. And I don't know. I start so many things. I don't know if I finished my thought. Don't sleep on that voice chat. Come hang out even if you're not trending. We talk about a lot of stuff in there. Um Mumba's got that thing rolling all during the day. Bankroll's in and out of there. Blues guy was in there. I was in there. Um Still Nasty's in there. I was trying to think of what his name is in the in the chat and it just not coming to me. All right. Altcoin index 37 out of 100. Fear and greed index is

16. That's that's a respectable. It's been bouncing around, but it's way better than the five that we had, you know, five and eight and six and five again like all last week or whatever. That was some low stuff. I'm not going to say I hate it because those are some great prices, but I would love to get the momentum momentum back to chopping around here. Uh yeah, Cryptic Quinton says, "I'll have to catch the voice chat one day." That would be awesome, man. It's also a really cool opportunity to chat with some people and connect on a deeper basis. Like right here, you can hear me. You know what I sound like, right? You can make some connection to that. You I you got me in the corner. You know what I look like. I don't know what a

lot of you guys sound or look like. Well, actually a lot of you I do because I've talked to you, but um a lot of you guys who are, you know, who I've never interacted with. I don't know what you sound like and stuff. It's nice to make that connection. All right, fear and greed index is 16. It was 14 yesterday. Let's get into what is trending. Let's let's let's really kick off here. I don't want to lose people's attention. We just had 12 people. Seems like we lost a couple of them. Maybe it's bankroll going in and out on us. So, here's what's trending. Bittensor Wow. What happened to Bittensor, man? Look at this chart. Did Did they just decide that AI is no good? Let's dial that into the 24-hour chart. Dude, this thing fell off a

cliff. Is it just Bittensor's turn to take a nose dive? Um $337 to like 286 in very short period of time. If you're being generous, 1910 to about 2100, of course military time. That is not a lot of time. That thing just fell off a cliff. That would have been the short of a century. I don't know about that, but it would have been an amazing short. I don't know I guess there's a shoulder, head, and the beginning of a shoulder, and everybody just collectively saw it and was like, "I'm out." There is like, oh, what is this? Is this news? Bittensor moves to community-owned subnet governance. Okay, Bittensor plans to reintroduce a community voting system where alpha holders elect subnet teams. This aims to formalize community-owned governance, reduce centralized risk, and potentially restore confidence after recent events. I

don't know. I guess everybody received that as super negative because they just absolutely dumped that thing on that news. And you could see that news was like right there, right before the dump. Sometimes people just see news and they freak out, right? It's kind of like with the whole Iran thing. Sometimes they say stuff and it's not even that big of an escalation, and then people just start dumping because they they don't know. Sometimes fear of the unknown and they don't know what's going on will cause people to just dump. And you can see SN3 subnet three, that's how you know it's in the Tao ecosystem. Anytime it has that SN, it did the same thing. And it crashed hard. It crashed 58%. That's intense. Yeah, for sure, Bittensor with the dip. Also, if you like Bittensor and you

wanted exposure to it, might be a good time to grab a little bit. I wouldn't be surprised if that thing got bought up. I wouldn't be surprised if it dumped a little bit more and then got really bought up. Cuz it's a good project as far as I know. Biggest AI project. So, we got Maca- Macad. Moment of silence for that level of failure right there. Okay, Monad, Zcash, Pudgy Penguins always trending, seems to be the strongest NFT project, also making a bit of a head and shoulder just like just like Tao looked. If it'll load. I mean, shoulder, head, and then you have like this really tiny like half a shoulder and it starts to dip. I don't know. My chart vision says that looks a heck of a lot like this. It just hasn't fallen off the

deep end." And there's no, you know, there's no saying that it is going to fall off the deep end, but man, that looked really similar. All right. Bitcoin Siren, World Liberty Finance, Smart Coin Hyper, Liquid Avalanche, Pi Network, River, and Kida. Looking at some of these 7-day charts here, very interesting. No new tokens on this that we really need to go over. Let's go to Crypto Rank. Where are my pop-ups? I need to exit out of So, there they are. Never fails me. Old dependable. All right, let's make it the top 20 instead of the top 10. I feel like we're flying through it today, but maybe not because we've already ran through about 40 minutes. So, we got four as being advertised. I ignore the ones somebody paid money to put up here because that doesn't mean that

there's market sentiment around it. Means somebody used money to get their way here. Nomina, Solve, Area Aria, Aria AI. I'll be taking a little bit more of a look at that, although we have a little bit. 0.6 of a year, it's been around a little bit. R2, very new. Base Decentralized Exchange, Stake Stone, right. Giggles. Is is Is this the same Giggles? We're going to be taking a look at that. One Football will be taking a look at that. Portal Bitcoin DeFi, been around a little bit. 0.6 of a year. Um Superform Himme again, also Bitcoin DeFi. So, we see a couple of those. We had Stake Stone, we had Red Stone. So, you can see a few coins running in a few different uh categories or niches, if you will. Mezos, TrueFi we went over yesterday. Bit Tensor,

Railius we went over yesterday. Manad and Opinion, which shocker is a prediction market coin. Let's get into it. Let's talk about this Arya AI. Now, if anybody here has done any research or is well-versed at all with things like, you know, running AI agents, Claude bots, that kind of stuff, um feel free to help help move us along here because I'm going to start jumping into some of that stuff and bringing that information to the stream. It just seems like that information is kind of almost too important, right? Too important to uh miss, too relevant to this to this cryptocurrency to not have some kind of information on it. How deep we'll go with it, I don't know, but I'd like to take it pretty far. Thank God for these pop-ups. All right. How we looking on the chart?

Let's see when this coin came out. Looks like the 21st of August 2025. Market cap 76.8 million, 141.5 million all-time high. Not a bad disparity. I kind of like that. Hasn't been out that long. Let's pull up the week chart. It'll make more sense. There we go. Wow, it had a really crazy pump and then it gave it all back, but in the week, you know, it went low, but it didn't stay down there. Very indecision doji kind of coin or uh candle there. Arya AI is an AI game platform designed with its own IP related gameplay at its core. So, let's check it out. For those who know this channel, you would know that tomorrow is D5 Friday. I look forward to D5 Friday quite a bit. Um can't wait to play some Z. All of our regular

games and then hopefully find some new games. So, this is really cool. Top Oreo leaderboard win airdrop. So, is this thing really pumping over some airdrops? Play to earn. Mint Oreo wish front pass to climb faster. Okay. But, where's the actual actual game here? What do we got for a trailer? See Oh, I've watched this trailer with people with you guys before with people with you guys with the team with the squad. Um anybody can put together a trailer. It's not even that great of a trailer. It's just like a picture slideshow. It's been kind of like, you know, 3D-ified. These Wait, so people on here are called angels? Or those are games? Those are Twitter accounts. Very interesting. Where Where's the Where's the game? Connect your X. Okay, but why would I want to do that? Where's the

game? See, I hate when you come to these things and there's like there's no game. Without a game, I just don't even know why you would care about this. You can watch on YouTube. I guess you could go to YouTube and really see what they got cooking as far as actual gameplay. They reached 150,000 Twitter followers and some milestone. Still doesn't mean that there's a playable game. I don't know. I'm not really all that excited about it until they actually have a game that I can play. Because, you know, putting out putting out a really good game is not the easiest thing to do. Takes a lot of effort and work, and you don't just slap it up overnight. All right, we got Giggles. I don't believe this is the same Giggles It's so low. It's very hard to

I this is the same giggles from before. Nah, it only had a 13 only had a high of 13.6 million. Let's go to the all-time chart. Yeah, this is definitely not the giggles that we were looking at. That ZZ I think that's just giggle, right? Interesting. Let's go check on that trade real quick. Is it actually green? No, it lied to us once again. Probably should just get out of this, but it hasn't broke that 200 yet on the 1-minute. So, there is still hope. All right, I don't know what this coin is. 38,000 and it's high as 13. Says giggles is a social network where every post is tradable asset. That sounds terrible. I mean what do you really have right now? You have Zora which I did not enjoy at all. I tried to participate with Zora

a little bit. I'm sure they'll keep marketing it. I'm sure they'll get a few people on there. Eh. Pretty mid if you ask me. Mid I think is being pretty generous. I think it's pretty dumb. Um allowing users to bet on its virality. Okay. Yeah, sure. Okay, well that's what giggles is and they have 38,000. So, that shows you how much people are excited about that. And it's been around 0.9 years. Must not be very good. One football. This is interesting. Why do we keep getting like the lamest chart? Nobody wants this chart. We want the TradingView plugin. They must not have a chart for it. Which tells you a lot. It's only it's at 7 million though. I mean it's doing much better than giggles was. And again, 13.5 million all-time high. Looks Looks April 9th, 2026. One

football, and I'm sure they're probably talking about like, you know, soccer football, not not regular football. Uh Ray says, "Don't buy towel now, wait for it to go under 200." Okay. Ray with the sauce. Welcome in, man. Thank you for being here on the show. Smash that like button. Free Discord in the chat and the description. And uh we we be doing a lot. We we got a lot of stuff to go over. So, I hope you're locked in. And the main mission of the channel, I hope you're ready to raise that crypto IQ. And with that being said, I'd really like to tell you a story about why people defend bad projects for a really long time. Why do they do that? Thank you, Melissa, for hitting us with the plow ID. All right. So, at first you

buy into something. All right, everybody ready? Strap in. Let's kick into gear here. At first, you buy something. And crypto feels simple. You do your research. You hear about a project. You like the idea. You see the potential. You take a position. And in that moment, it feels like a decision. But, over time, something changes because you no longer because the longer you hold, I mean, you hold something, the more it stops being just a position, right? You start getting attached to what you hold. It becomes something you're connected to, something you've defended, something you've talked about with friends and family over Christmas and Thanksgiving dinner. Something you've mentally committed to. Could it be XRP? Could it be Bitcoin? And that's where letting go gets hard. Because now, selling isn't just about price. It feels like admitting something. Admitting

you were early but wrong or just wrong and not early. Admitting you believed in something that didn't play out stings stings the ego a little bit. Admitting you stayed longer than maybe you should have and that is uncomfortable. That doesn't make your friends and family pat you on the head and say, "Boy, you're so smart. We're glad that you're here in this family." That's not what that does. It makes it look like you don't know what you're talking about when they're already doubting you in the first place, right? People don't like new stuff. So, when you come in with the new topic and you're excited about it, they're really quick to tell you all the ways that they're pretty sure it's not going to work out. And it's hard to admit sometimes that they could have been right about

certain things. So, instead of letting go, a lot of people do something else. They explain, they justify, they double down. They tell themselves the market is wrong, right? Not them. That people don't get it yet. It's just a matter of time. And a lot of times for the idea and the topic that they're bullish on, they might be right. But a lot of times the coin that really does it well will be a new coin and not the one that they hold and they'll watch the idea explode, people make money while they still hold some old coin that is not developing and not delivering. So, that is just a matter of time. And sometimes that's true. But a lot of the time it's not about your belief anymore. It's about your attachment. That's why they say don't marry these

coins out here. And that's one of the most important behaviors to recognize in crypto. We've all done it. If you're new in crypto, uh if you've only been here for two or three years, you've probably done this at some point. Because if you don't, then you don't just hold positions, you hold them longer than you should. Let's get our regular talking points up here. Check back in with that trade and we'll continue on what's trending. But anybody else, anybody else feel like that? All right. Let's get back. Nothing exciting going on with that trade. Let's check out the website for this One Football Club, onefootball.com. Um I I still don't know which football they're talking about, but I'm pretty sure it's soccer. Join the 3.5 billion football fans. Do you see how they kind of just took the number

of like football fans that there are in the world and then just tried to like act as if all of those people are um you know, associated with or care about this project. It's a very common tactic to just try to take like a talking point, you know? Like again, 3.5 billion football fans. I don't know if there's that many football fans, but it it's probably pretty pretty close, right? But, that then just be like, "Well, join these 3.5 billion football fans here at One Football." Like, they don't have 3.5 billion customers, okay, or people using this. That's for sure. They'd be lucky if they had a 10 million. They'd be lucky if they had 10 million people who care about this, right? Trusted by hundreds of the world's top club brands. Again, you got to take their word

for it like any other partnership, no idea. I would think they'd have for 3.5 billion and all of these top club brands, I think that they would have a bigger market cap, don't you? A little bigger than 7 million in the world of professional football. I mean, soccer cuz I'm in America, so let's just call it soccer cuz we have our own football and it's better. Ooh, spicy topic. Anybody else, anybody else like American football better than soccer? Just me? Okay, moving on. So, from here, let's go do the news. Let's go see what kind of news we got cuz the news cycles have been pretty interesting lately. Blues guy in the house. Don't worry, you were missed. He said, "Uh so so sorry, had a nap, overslept. Hope all is doing great underground, my man." Yeah, I I

tried to do that, too. But I can't oversleep, you feel me? Because uh I got to start the show. So, man, it was hard getting up. Let me tell you. I don't know if anybody can tell, but I'm trying to keep that energy up, but I am tired. Hitting this coffee. All right, let's uh they changed this on me and it's really annoying. And I keep messing it up. Please give me all relevant cryptocurrency news for today. Articles that are trending. Whatever's trending on social media in the realm of cryptocurrency. Also, any big relevant world news articles. I was off to a good start, but then I'm like, I wanted it to include things that might not be crypto-related, but they're going to affect the markets. That's what I should have said. Hey, what's up? Welcome in. Welcome in.

This isn't a Campster bedtime story. You talking about me? Well, I don't care. I'll never separate from Manads, Soul Flare, ZBC, and then the rest of crypto. Just kidding. Hey, we're all trying to do our best. The thing about it is it's really easy to point and be like, "Oh, you got married to a project and you held it too long. But like the people who've done like crazy X's, you know, 100 X on coins and stuff, they had to hold those things for a long time. Most of the most people, right? They held multiple cycles, right? And when you hold multiple cycles, there's going to be that bear market in between the cycles that you did a 100 X where people were just like, "When you turned 10 grand into 5 100 bucks, what an idiot." Who gets

the last laugh? It depends on the project. And then it also depends on how long you hold. And not everything comes back from the dead. You you you're playing the game. You got to stay on top of that portfolio, right? All right. I thought it was going to give me some Okay, this is what I want. So, Israel seeks Lebanon talk after it bombed the crap out of them. That's crazy. That is one way to negotiate. Uh Circle and Bullish failed to participate in something. See what this is about. Uh Bitcoin top 72,000, but Circle and Bullish drop sharply after downgrades. I don't know exactly what that's about. I'm not into the regular stock market stuff. I shorted the QQQ the other day. Um and that was about the most stock action I have ever really done. Well, that's

not true. I bought a lot during the pandemic and then I sold it when it went back up. For anybody who has never heard that story, drop a 111 in the chat of how I got into crypto in the first place. It was kind of a it was random, but it was it was interesting. It caught my attention, I'll tell you that. So, Circle dropped 10%. Nobody cares about this. I don't. And by everybody, I run the show, so uh I just mean me. I don't care about it. CryptoQuant, not CryptoQuentin, CryptoQuant says Bitcoin either rally driven or new long position in perpetual future. Well, which one is it? Says says Bitcoin either rally driven by new long positions in perpetual future. So, they think it's just people decided to get into big positions and they think that's what's

just running it. Honestly, a lot of these articles when I do take the time to read them, they're just dumb. They're just by people who have absolutely no idea about the crypto market and they're trying to analyze it as if it was the stock market and it's just not the same thing. Spot Bitcoin ETFs post net outflow despite 31 million. US Secret Service freezes 12 million in crypto tied to something. 12 million's not a lot of money. Tied to global fraud operation Atlantic. They gave it a cool name at least. Authorities disrupt more than 120 cryptocurrency fraud domains cutting off key infrastructure used to target victim. Phishing scams are expanding beyond the digital realm with scammers now likely using leaked personal data to reach victims offline. If you get a text saying it's Coinbase, call this number, that is

false news. That is not real. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Lebanon have must be covered by ceasefire agreement, French foreign minister says. Why does France get to have a position in this? I don't know. Do they have a huge stake in Lebanon? I don't get it. Why is the French foreign minister having anything to say? He's not even a part of this. US Iran truce should extend to Lebanon. Everybody's got an opinion. But nobody wanted to be a part of it. They just want to sit back from the sidelines and scream scream stuff like a bunch of parents watching a child's football game. American football, not soccer. I feel like they really did not give me the wealth of information that they normally give me here. The dominant story is still the Middle East. Yeah, exactly.

All right, that's the news. Didn't seem like there was a whole lot of exciting stuff. Let's go with the dump. Uh I did Mary Cass. It went down. I should have sold, but I know that it will go up even more next alt so we so we I can't talk, guys. Um next alt season, yeah. Or so we hope. We really hope. And I think there's a good chance for it. I'm just messing around, but in all reality, um there's always a chance that it doesn't. Blues Guy says, "Freaking French, putting their noses everywhere." Hey, and Blues Guy is French, so he can say that and it's not racist. I don't know. That That's That's my opinion. If you're If you're of an ethnicity, you can say stuff and it and you're not a bad guy. Did I ever

even post over here? Look at that. Bro, Me Max is so much better than actual Twitter. I'm just going to say that because people like my post. I even get comments in actual uh Chinese. Look at that. That That bunch of squiggly lines means wow. They were impressed by my post. All right, I'm messing around a little bit, but I'm serious. I mean, I It's funny, uh the life was talking about it. He goes so hard on there and he'll lose like 300 subs a day. It makes no sense. Obviously, they're cutting some bots or something. I don't know, but it is kind of uh kind of interesting. Ooh, they got me live on here right now. I'm live on Meme X. Your boy's made it. Um all everybody talks about on here is if you go to like

home, it's all just meme coin lore, very little real posting. This person's drinking coffee. Um is this what the early days of every social media is? Just people like just trying to find something to post? I'll like it cuz I want engagement. Um yeah. If it's not like just artwork from a meme, it's like somebody's lunch. I guess that's what social media's for, pictures of cats. Um it's not deep. It's not really exciting. And then people just commenting on every post um as if like they care about the post, and they don't. Whoa, who knows what's going to pop up there? All right, moving on. Uh you in Quebec? No, he's not in Quebec. Um he's in Edmonton. True, but Kas ecosystem is pretty huge like Flare. I believe it won't die anytime soon. I like the fact that

Kas is proof of work. I like some things about it. They were on They were on good track, and then I still want to kind of go back. It's funny I'm on Meme X. Live on Meme X. I'm crushing it. That's marketing for you. Um yeah, what was I trying to say? They really They really seemed like everything went downhill for Kaspa when they they tried to roll out the KRC-20s. And I don't I honestly don't know what went wrong. People were really bullish. People were on the Lifers channel talking about, you know, meme coins coming out that this whole ecosystem was going to be big. They were sending Sam free Kaspa meme coins and stuff like that. And we were all gearing up for like this birth of this this ecosystem of the KRC-20s and stuff, smart contracts.

And then the whole thing, like I heard a couple people say like you know, it's supposed to come out today. And then people were saying, well, that didn't go well at all. And then all of a sudden Kaspa just dumped and it's just like never come back from it. I don't even know what went wrong. Do they have KRC-20s now? They have to, right? Uh Cryptic Quinton says Nova Scotia here. Hey, the closest I've ever been is Maine. I used to go there every summer. Awesome, you guys are the best people in Canada hands down, bro. I know cuz I'm working cuz when working for the airline, my favorite were from Nova Scotia. Nova Scotia just sounds cool. I don't know. It sounds like uh sounds like a cool place to be. I've watched a couple documentaries on it.

But as you guys may know, anywhere that's cold, no, thank you. A very short period of time. That's it. I was too. They do have KRCs. What happened though? They just like it seemed like launching smart contracts was like the worst thing that ever happened to Kaspa. Maybe something else happened around that time. Not really sure. Maybe we should pull it up instead of just just rambling about it. And by we, I mean me. I want to include you guys. Let's go take a look at it. Yeah, Kaspa was one of them. Spicy. Sounds like ARRR, Pirate Coin. Says, "I don't know what happened." Yeah. Um I'm not sure exactly what time frame it was. But it's got to be right about here, right? In this area. And then it dumped. I remember it dumping. And then it just

dumped some more. I don't even remember it getting this relief. Let's see. What top is this? 12 cents. I remember when Kaspa I traded it up to like 14 cents, 15 cents. We were trading it with the lifer, hit some crazy runs on it. And then that was that. It still has 879.6 million in it. People still believe in it. Max supply, 28.7 billion. Very random number. Most of it's out in circulation. Only 13.8 million in 24-hour trading volume. Very interesting. See what's the the recent news article here. Kaspa achieved 1 billion network status. Evolved from early cents to become a 1 billion-dollar network, demonstrating substantial growth and market presence. 77 days ago. I mean, I guess take it from them. I don't know where they get a billion dollars from. I don't see a billion dollars here. I

see 879 million. Maybe they hit a billion. I mean, they had to been higher than a billion. I don't know what they're talking about here. They were Yeah, they were like three, four, probably dang near five billion at this top here. Yeah, 4.9 billion. I don't know what that article's talking about. It's not exactly relevant enough to go figure out what it's talking about. All right, let's hop back to raising that crypto IQ and and emotional intelligence very much in this week. Melissa says, "I have Caspi and Casper." Yeah, Caspi was the one people were sending to the lifer and whatnot in that era, in that time. And then I don't I don't really think it did all that well. So, why do people defend bad projects for too long? And it's just a funny way of saying people

don't know when to let go and sell, and it's very hard to let go and sell. How about How about we all have this story? What's What's flip this around? How many people have sold something because they thought, "I've held this for too long. It's just not doing anything." And then it literally just took off. Like I held HBAR. Bought in the bear market, held it for forever. Was looking at a lot of things move and decided, "Man, I want to sell something at like, you know, two, three grand or something. And uh move around, get into some new coins, you know, look for some new opportunities, you know, get it get get this excitement going again." And I ended up selling HBAR. And now, mind you, I've been holding HBAR for like a year and a half if

not two years at this point and it had done nothing. Literally sold it and like 4 days later uh it quadrupled in price. Maybe more. And I was really annoyed. Like really, really annoyed. Um yeah, that really sucked. But I had held it for forever. So it's like sometimes you do try to make the right move and get out of stuff and then you pay for it. A lot of times it feels like you pay for it no matter what. Positions turn into identities faster than people realize. At the beginning, a coin was just a trade or just an idea, but over time it becomes something more. People start identifying with it. They follow updates, they defend it, they talk about it like it reflects something about them. And once that happened, objectivity becomes much harder. Letting go feels

like admitting you were wrong. This is probably the number one reason why people have trouble moving on because whose ego can handle being wrong? This is one of the biggest drivers of behavior. Selling something at a loss or even just letting go after believing in it feels like admitting failure. And most people avoid that feeling, so they stay longer than they should. The sunk cost effect is strong in crypto. The more time, money, attention and something someone puts into something, the harder it becomes to walk away from it, right? It's like a relationship. Could be a friendship. Could be another relationship, right? Bro, that sucks. I did that too. Yeah, we we all have done it at some point. That's why we're trying to raise our crypto emotional intelligence here. Because it feels like abandoning everything they already invested

in even if the situation has clearly changed. And honestly, we look at tokens all the time that had rallies back in, you know, the 2022, '21, somewhere back in there, like far enough back that it was it's old news, and it hasn't done a single thing. Like, we've had whole rallies like in 2024 where the coin didn't do a single thing. And people still run around talking about it like it is hot off the press. Social environments reinforce holdings. If someone is surrounded by a community that believes in the same project, an an echo chamber, if you will, it becomes even harder to step back, right? Cuz once they don't own it, they feel like they're not a part of that community anymore because now it's just a personal decision. It's a shared belief system, and leaving that can

feel like disconnecting socially, not just financially. Hope can turn back into blind attachment. Hope is a powerful in crypto. Hope is powerful in crypto. But when it turns into attachment without reassessment, it can keep people stuck in situations that are no longer working. That's where behavior becomes dangerous. Some people defend because they need it to work, right? They put all their stock in it. They need it to work. I hear I hear people say all the time, "I just need crypto to move." Because they put all their stock in it. And uh I don't point and laugh at them. I I'm right there with them. I put a lot of stock. I wouldn't say I have all my stock in it, but I put I put a decent amount of stock and time and energy into it. I would

like crypto to move, too. This is an uncomfortable truth. Sometimes people defend something not because they objectively believe in it, but because they need it to work for their situation to make sense. That creates a bias. So, what's your core insight here? Or as you would have said in the seventh grade, in consensus, right? Holding isn't always about conviction. Sometimes it's just about not being ready to let go. So, it's not ready to let go. And that's fair a lot of the time. But, we got to get a little bit better about knowing when the writing is on the wall. Wow, in an hour. Yesterday was such a long stream and it felt like today in an hour we just flew through a lot of that stuff. Wow, they just crushed us again. I knew I should have got

out a minute ago and I didn't. Well, there goes the dreams. No, I'm just kidding. I'm only down a dollar 48. It's not the end of the world scenario. Although, I would like to get out on a correction or flip. So, we broke above the 200 on the 1-minute. Now, would really like to see some kind of flag and out. We're getting that first big wick or I guess what they would call a swing wick. And let's see what happens. I don't know what this line is for. What is this line? Like, did I put that line there? Looks like some kind of resistance that I drew a long time ago. Yeah, you can see it here, here, here, here. Support Yeah, all right. It's It's definitely relevant. Let's see. Is it going to keep pumping? Or is this

a turnaround? Looks like it could be making a tweezer top. I mean, tweezer tops on on the 1-minute are not the most amazing thing. Yeah, then a month or so later a god candle comes out of nowhere. Then you really feel bad. Yeah, exactly. Sometimes it just feels like no matter what you do it's going to do the opposite, right? That that's how it feels a lot of the time. So, the sooner it moves, the sooner it moves. Yeah, you nailed it, blues guy. Exactly. All right, let's see what happens here. I felt the pressure to do the stream, but I definitely when we were had this wick down here and I was I don't know, up like 30 cents, I really did feel like I should sell it and and wait to reposition. It's Thursday. It's not the

best time for trading. A lot of volatility or a lot of easy manipulation, right? A lot of times it's very easy manipulation. But let's see if we flag out and I lose a dollar, no big deal. Because if we flag out and the 21 comes up, we get our normal sauce. Might be a good time to flip long. All right, with that being said, let's run us a round of Panzer Dog. Trying to get to 10k scrap so we can open 10 boxes at one time. And uh what's up with with uh Panzer Dogs, man? They really need to hit us with an update here. I hope they're working on something because it's just been way too long. It really has been. It's been way too long. The market is treacherous right now. Uh Quentin, is Is ever not

treacherous? That's the question. I'm trying to double up on 10 bucks cuz I feel like if you can double up 10 bucks to 20 and then double that to 40, you know, like that's a good testament. But what happens is sometimes you hit a couple of wins, you start off real disciplined and then you get significantly more bold and less disciplined as it goes on, right? So, just trying to to keep that same energy across the board there. Can be difficult. What I feel like a lot of times happens to me is I'm locked in and then I work on the job or, you know, I do something to where I'm not watching it for 30, 40 minutes and that's always when it does something insane. Like how did that person kill me with all of my teammates right

there and I had them down to almost no health at all? And uh teammates were useless. That's for sure. I mean, the bots. Bang, got him. MVP in the house. Let's go. I don't know if that's necessarily true, but Man, I don't know what was up with yesterday's stream, but we just seemed to keep going and going and going and going yesterday. It was a great stream yesterday. Oh, I'm cooked. They're ganging up on me. And my my teammates once again are absolutely useless. No, we can't go out like that. I need this guy. I need that kill. Why can I not hit this fool? There we go. All right, I can be satisfied with that. Uh-huh, good point. I've only been in crypto 1.5 years though. Yeah. Definitely got to get a full cycle under your belt and

then things will feel very different the next cycle. And hopefully you still have some kind of hope or something left. And I'm just messing around, but you know, that's how it goes. Oh, yeah, look at that. We didn't flag out at all. We're just going to pump. We're just going to rip. Nice. No drawback, nothing. I had multiple opportunities to get out of this thing. Story of my life. I like took a nap or had a job or something. And I just let it run because why not? It's very little amount of money. But really, that's not the discipline that I was going for, right? Come on down. Let's do our our airdrop stuff. We got to stay consistent. He says, "I'm in too deep to leave now." Uh, yeah, I feel you. I know this stuff. Like I

do mess around a lot. I know that this stuff is the future of of a lot of stuff. I mean, you could say finance. It's also the future of a lot of the back end of how a lot of things work. So, I want to stay cutting edge. Sometimes you just got to wait through the not so exciting part. So, we hit the GM, right? On the Robinhood testnet, let's deploy a smart contract. Boom. I like to do the smart contract like three times. I mean, trying to get a little bit of this airdrop is really a very low effort thing, to be honest. It's more about consistency than actual amount of effort. Then we're going to go over to our exchange. And we're going to do a couple of swaps. I mean, we don't particularly care, right? Because

in all honestly all honesty, um you're basically using testnet money that you got from a faucet. So, you don't really stand to lose anything but maybe a minute or two of your time. We are so early, guys. I believe that. I know we say that a lot. I know I know a lot of times we point out a lot of things here. I'm bullish on crypto, okay? Obviously, I wouldn't be here if I wasn't. I think we're ridiculously early. And you can interpret that how you want to, right? I think there will be good times in the near future, but we're also still very early, right? All right, we do the swap like three times. I don't know why it says we're on Arcnet. I guess we're on Arcnet. We're supposed to be doing Robinhood stuff. But Arknat is

the next one. Apparently, Arknat is basically circle stuff. High potential they give away something. I'll take the uh the time and energy to try to get something out of it. And I guess people will be glad they didn't do it or they'll wish that they played along. We'll see. Time will tell. Let's do some swaps. That was actually on the Arc testnet. Now we're doing the Robinhood stuff. Is in gnosis down for you, too? Uh-oh. Is there a trouble in the flare paradise? King of flare, tell us what's going on in your city. All right. This is the second time. I'll do it one more time and we'll consider that a win for just being disciplined and doing it every day, right? I don't know how many times I've done it at this point. I think this is the

third time. Might be the fourth time. Let's go. Over here, all they have is Arc testnet, I believe. They don't have Robinhood. We'll do like two over here. Then we'll go back to GM. And we'll do our GM and deploy a smart contract. Just trying to create as many transactions as possible, as I always say. We'll just do two of these. And then back over here, down to Arc testnet. I like that when you click on it, it kind of automatically changes it in MetaMask to the right network. That's nice. Let's see, deploy Arc. Let's go. Yeah, let's hit it three times. One, this will be two. And this will be three. All right, we did our our airdrop stuff. Let's go check out that airdrop uh Twitter that NW gave us. Haven't really found a better influencer with

airdrops yet than this guy. See what he's got going on. Oh, this is his pinned post. That's why I keep seeing it about the Base airdrop. That one you got to spend real money. I haven't bothered with that one. So, Selenium season 9, they raised 70 million to easy activation, same outcome USDC, Infinity Name Campaign. 70 USDC pool, seven winners, $10 each. That's kind of weak sauce. Complete to enter. I don't know. Like, they're giving away 70 bucks? They raised $70 and they're giving away 70 bucks? I mean, they can take that and shove it. If I'm understanding that right. Uh stay active on the Tempo mainnet. We were talking about that yesterday. It's just a great account to follow. Um I don't know if this is like in European or something. It says valued at 80k. It's got

the dollar sign and it says 80.70. I'm pretty sure that's $80. Pretty dang sure that that is 80 bucks, but whatever. Maybe they got some I know that in a lot of countries they don't use the comma like we do, they use a period. Seems really confusing. Uh, wait, let me check. I could get in I could get in today. No, mine works. I just created a pair. APR is amazing. Uh, we did have some fun messing around with the flare ecosystem. If you want to be a part of that, then you're going to have to come to the members-only stream. Where yesterday on the members-only stream, I forgot to make it 18 and up. And I'm very shocked that somehow we didn't get get kicked off of YouTube. So, I'm glad we didn't, but I'm very surprised that

we didn't. Let's go take a look at Chainers. Tired of clicking, we got you. Time is precious. Craft everything you need in one click. Okay, merge now. The hidden glade. Peppa found the hidden gem. I don't even know what they're talking about. Now, get the treasure. Pop-up after pop-up. What are they even talking about? All right, they got another campaign running. See if we can get anything good for the farm. Still farming that BNB. Tell you one thing, this coffee is not working. And it's espresso. And it's still not working. My adrenals might just be beyond repair. Boom. How Blues got give us our health our health uh fact of the day. How about that? Put blues guy on the spot. Did I never plant anything? Oh, it wouldn't work. That's right. Nothing would load. None of my plants

would load the other day, so I couldn't plant nothing. What do we want to hit him with? The lotus? Yeah, whatever. We're just going to kind of plant whatever cuz I don't think I'll be back to look at this today. And we'll go to our stall where we have 16 sweet potatoes. We will go and we will put all into BNB. I think it only makes sense to like, you know, consistently do one thing if you're going to even bother to do it. Yeah, I do need a real nap. I got like 40 minutes to lay down or whatever. Getting up was hard. Let's just say that. It was like 8:25, which is why I was a couple minutes late to the stream. But you know what? I show up for you guys. So. That's how much I I

appreciate my community and I do my best to be consistent for you. I got to live up to my mentor, right? The crypto life for every day. Always hitting, never quitting. And uh I can't call him my mentor if I don't if I don't show up myself. If I make ex- If you start making one excuse, y'all might never see me again. You know what I'm saying? Like if I make one It's all right. It's just I'm tired. I'll be I'm tired every day. That's not a good That's just not a good enough excuse is what I have to tell myself because as soon as that is is good enough excuse, you'll make every day. Ah, it's the bear market. Ah, not many people are going to show up to the stream. Nobody cares. I'm tired. Like, you can't

do that. Discipline is everything compounded. You know, compounding finance is the what? Ninth Wonder of the world. Compounding anything, just being consistent is worth so much more than people understand. Like, coming to the stream every day and upgrading that crypto IQ, learning all about all kinds of different things. That's a value that you really just don't understand until you do it. I'm doing it for me. I'm also doing it for you guys, and we're doing it together. Excuses is a snowball effect. Exactly. And I want to be heavily disciplined, right? We all want to be somebody who we're proud of, right? And that just is what it is. And life just throws you curveballs, you know? And uh yeah. And my sleep schedule is out of whack. I don't know if it's just I I'm doing a parasite cleanse.

I quit you know, smoking any any nicotine or anything. I don't know why I said it like that. I don't smoke anything else. But um yeah. And so, like, also, like, I was just up for like seemingly absolutely no reason at 6:00 a.m. when I went to bed at 3:00 a.m. I mean, what time did we get off the stream last night? I mean, it had to have been like 12:30, 1:00, something like that. We started at 8:30. Does it feel like we'll be going quite that long today? And again, I don't do the streams based off of like a certain time. It's not like I just sit here and watch a chart just to make make a certain time quota. It's just what it wound up being. If it makes sense, it makes sense. And we we seem

to move through things pretty quick. I was lagging out there. Seems like it corrected itself. All I want is my free my free NFT. Just got to get to a thousand. We are almost there. It looks like they did a little bit of updating on this. The actual TNT looks different. Or maybe I'm just tired. I don't know. But you you know, I ask myself, what's what's worse? That I show up and I'm a little off, I'm a little tired or something like that. I don't know. I mess up some words live. Never me. Never do that. Um or that I don't show up at all and people are disappointed. Or worse, feel like uh they wasted their time cuz maybe they would have did something else. And then I didn't show up for them. You know what I'm

saying? It's just always better that I just go ahead and show up. And I do believe that the stream really will be that big one day that I won't have a choice but to show up. Too many people counting on you you you figure out how to be disciplined, right? It's what a lot of us need actually to truly lock in is we almost need some serious uh What do you want to call it? Some serious uh not reliability. The word is not coming to my brain. Basically, where there's people counting on you. That's what I'm trying to say. Yeah, they definitely changed this or updated it or something. Okay, no point in playing this anymore. I wish they'd make the scatter last longer. All right, let's go ahead and and let them take us out, see what we

get. Uh he said yeah. Hey, at least when I mess up a word I stop and try to correct it instead of just running over it and acting like it didn't happen. 47 fear and greed index today, bro? Where in the world do you see that? Get out of here. I don't think so. No, it The fear and greed index is 16. We went over that. Now, different platforms have different fear and greed index. I like CryptoRank because I think it's alternative alternative.me maybe I think is what it is. It's alternative.something is the one that Lifeer always uses. We went for like a month straight every day checking them together and they were always the same. I'm pretty sure that they literally just pull this in the back end from alternative.me or whatever it is. Where was I? Oh,

here. This is where we were. Let's see what our prize is. Da da da da, something good. Fertilizer. I need the See, I get this legendary fertilizer. I need the regular fertilizer for upgrades. They're trying to make me buy it. I know what they're doing. Okay. Pretty sure I had something to open but I don't know where it is. And back to the farm and that's enough of that. Let's go back to our trade here where we are down under a dollar, I think. Come on, where are we at? There we go. Are we falling off? Are we getting ready to bang? Once again. Maybe. It is kind of a little bit of a sketchy time. It is kind of like a slanted M, right? Of course, I'm short. I would love for it to dump. Let's go back

to the 200 would be beautiful. Sir, crypto ranks at 16 on the fear and greed. I looked on Binance and the market cap gives me both 47. I don't get it. Yeah, I don't I don't go off of those. Yeah, underground never messes words. Exactly. Discipline is everything. Motivation comes and go. Exactly. If you wait for motivation, you will really be out of whack. Binance and market cap says 47. I don't use those. I don't know. I don't know what to tell you. Let's see. Alt I think it's alternate. I don't know. Maybe I got the wrong thing. Let's go down here. Let's see. What do we got? Yeah. All right, never mind. I forget what the website is. Like alternative.me, I swear is that I don't know. It's a weird website for what it is. But that's the

one that uh lifewater always uses. Looks like the M with the measured move playing out. Looks like it should be a little lower. Rollover, make a slanted shoulder head and shoulder would be nice. And we are an hour and a half into the stream. Dang. Well, it's doing the thing. I mean, if you look at the the measured move here, it's a pretty it's a pretty good measured move. If you can actually get that breakout, first obviously you have to break this resistance at these previous local tops, very local on the 1-minute. It's like maybe 72,750. I got book map up over here. Let's take a look at that. Got liquidity on both sides. The bigger red is to the bottom at about 70,500. I really would like to show you guys this. Interesting. I don't think it's really

worth pulling up. There's really nothing there. I think we're probably going to that at 71,600. It's a big red there. There's some really close red at 72,300 and then that's it. So, 72,300 is like right here. Should probably put a line on it. Let's a ray on it. Uh this is not the ray that I want. That's for sure. We'll make it work. There we go. So, there's a decent amount of liquidity here. Looks like about 600 BTC. And we'll have to keep uh keep checking in with that. I think we're going to uh go ahead and do our countdown. For the members-only channel, if you would like to continue with us, roll some crypto slots, stuff like that, then you are going to want to have a membership. It's $3 a month. If you can't swing it, I

understand. Um I don't know how you're watching the stream for 2 hours. You need to go to work. But, if you just don't feel that I'm worth $3 a month, then that's cool, too. You just won't you won't get the extra sauce and fun over at the members-only club. Hint, hint. I was going somewhere with that, and then I just didn't. Yeah, looks like we're falling. Looks like you did get the slanted shoulder head and shoulder. Got that kind of trend line there. This one here. And you could be a little bit more generous and lock all of that in there. Very falling wedge-esque. I mean, it is a falling wedge. It tried to break out a couple of times and no dice. Back to the 200. I'm all for it. Let's just go ahead and crash this party

so the short can play out. 71,600 is really not that far. Actually, yeah, it is pretty far. What am I talking about? Bang. That's basically the bottom of this wick down here. This yellow line. That's where most of the liquidity is sitting and what happens is you start to fall down there and then they just keep building liquidity, right? And keep building liquidity. So, first things first, got to lose the 200. Let's go to TradingView and set some alert on that local top there. Just so if we're messing around doing other things, I will actually still know if anything happened. Nice. All right. And then we will start that countdown. He says, "$3 a month in this economy?" Exactly. Your boy is worth top dollar. Top dollar. Hey, you know I'm worth it. You know I'm worth $3 a

month. Uh what does that break down to a day? I have no idea. I'm I'm not even as tired as I am, I'm not even going to try to do that math. I would just say like uh three pennies a day or something like that. Yeah, I don't know if I can pay three bucks a month. Hey, hey, it's tough out there. It's a lot of crypto you could be buying with $3 a month. It's hard to It's hard to give it up. But y'all going pay a thousand K to come to Miami. I see y'all. Y'all going to Vegas. I'm watching you. I'm watching you guys. All right, I'm just I'm done messing around with that. Let's go to uh, the members-only stream. Come on down, members-only stream. In 5 minutes. It's been initiated. There's nothing I can

do. It's going to happen now. And we'll continue to watch this trade. We're going to do some crypto. Some crypto slots. It's breaking out. It didn't want to give us the love. Back down to the 200. It's probably going to pump here. We got 72,300, basically where this blue line is. There's some liquidity there. We could go there, make a lower low, and then come down. Very possible. Let me zoom out a little bit more on the book map and see Yeah, 73,500. Oof. Yeah, that's nice. 73,500 is 500 way up here. Do I want to flip? Do I not want to flip? Honestly, on a Thursday night like this, I don't even want to play. If we start breaking these highs up here, probably want to get the heck out and just be out. That looks like a

cup and handle, right? Doesn't that look like a cup and handle? Sure does to me. Odds are we're going up. It's a lot of flair. Yeah, Blues Guy is right. $3 will get you quite a bit of flair. To grab that membership, you get some custom emojis that I made myself. And uh yeah, we're going to play some slots and stuff. It's going to be fun. I'mma hang in there as long as I can. 3 minutes and counting. Just want to say, all jokes aside, I appreciate everybody being here. What What would I be without my community? Right? Anybody who streams knows how it goes. Without people who show up, this is a pointless endeavor, right? Let's go dump. Let's look at something bigger. Let's go to like the 15. What are we at? Stochastic's kind of high on

the 15. Been really playing around with that 200 moving average, but it's been holding it. Very Bart Simpson though. Look at this. I mean Ah, seen that pattern. Anybody seen that pattern before anywhere? The 1-hour looking like a head and shoulders. Anybody see that? Shoulder, head, shoulder. Sometimes you see the patterns in the stochastic RSI as well. And the 4-hour is pointing down. Looks like it wants to come down. I I you made this nice wedge here. You can see we've been trading all over it. I've been doing pretty good today. I don't think I've really lost much. I lost like one trade for like a dollar fifty and then turn around and made like three something. So, again, trading very small. Trying to turn ten dollars into twenty dollars. Think that is very humble way to go about

it. Crypto Quinton says green heart. I don't know. When you look at it on like the fifteen, it really does give me that Bart Simpson vibe. I mean, it's a little bit more dippy and then straight across, but I mean, kind of same thing. I mean, you had it here in a smaller way, right? Boom. A lot of times when the market makes a a pattern and stuff, it just keeps doing it over and over and over. You'll see the same pattern for weeks. And then right when you get real confident on the pattern and you're like, I'll double down on that. Usually get crushed at that point, honestly. Then they switch it up. Let's get rid of all the stuff we don't need here. I mean, that big pump is held pretty well on the fifteen. We we

really didn't get much retracement as far as Fibonacci. The fifteen minute two hundred's held up really well. All right, guys. Fifteen seconds. See you on the other side. I do have to hit go live again. But I'll pretty much do it right away. And we will start from our favorite song. Members only.
