1/ # Why are you making it more difficult than it needs to be?

I get questions all the time of "What do you think about $XYZ ?" - projects that are unknown, mediocre or historically had problems, rugs, problems, a lot of FUD.

2/ My usual first reaction is 'Why are you even considering buying that?'. They'll reply 'Well its got X coming', 'They've changed and done Y', 'I still think it can get gains', 'looks promising'. Maybe it will, but why are you purposefully choosing the harder, less likely path?

3/ Theres a lot of opportunities in crypto WITHOUT those problems, OR WITH reasons to get gains in the current market. Don't just choose them just because 'oh that sounds interesting'.

4/ Too many people think crypto is about picking something others haven't heard of yet, that is low key, one that others aren't choosing. Or that research is looking through the low rankings on Coingecko and finding something obscure that has some 'interesting sounding tech'.

5/ It is not about this. Its about choosing the best tokens for your funds that will achieve the most likely best safest gains in the near term. Everything else is secondary to that. This could mean buying a 40B MC well known project, or a completely unknown 90M DeFi app.

6/ Sometimes i'll invest in something that previously I stated I didn't think was a good investment and someone will get angry 'YOU SAID THAT WAS TERRIBLE!'. Yes, but im looking at NOW. I don't care what was the past situation was or what I said.

7/ If it meets my criteria in the present, i'll invest. This goes the other way too. I my invest in something in the past that today I won't invest in.

8/ Stop picking the least optimal path, and chose the best path for your funds. This is all about making gains in the most effective likely safest way.
