Your alts going up in dollars doesn't mean they beat Bitcoin. Check the total altcoin market cap minus stablecoins, divided by Bitcoin. When that ratio goes up, you rotate back into Bitcoin. If it isn't climbing, your alts are underperforming

My rule for rotating alts back into Bitcoin: do it once they've beaten it. On the last rally, Bitcoin went from 65K to 86K, call it 30%. If your alts were up 60% on that move, it's time to rotate

Does it matter for crypto which party wins the midterms? For the Clarity Act, not really. It's bipartisan, both parties have voted yes and no. It's delayed no matter what, and it should get another chance mid next year

Gaming coins aren't dead. The Sandbox, Decentraland and Axie still trade on all the exchanges with enough liquidity, so in a Bitcoin bull run they've got upside. Will they beat the AI or RWA coins? No

When I'm waiting to buy XRP on a dip, my AI watches its drawdown against Bitcoin every hour. If it drops a lot more than expected, I buy. Let AI do the watching. I still click buy myself

Over its last four big swings, Hyperliquid moved about 3.8x as much as Bitcoin. So a 10% Bitcoin drop can mean roughly 38% on HYPE. That's why I'm never that comfortable buying it. If you hold it, expect much bigger dips than Bitcoin

I've done a lot of token sales on Legion, a platform where you buy new tokens before they list. They're legit, projects only get on through a vetted process. I still don't know if I'll make money on any one sale, so I keep each one small

I don't short Ethereum, Solana, XRP, BNB or Doge, and never Bitcoin. The one I've shorted before is Hyperliquid. And I don't short late in a bear market. If you're underwater on that short, I can't help you

My first crypto was Dogecoin, mined on one GPU rig in my college dorm in 2014. Dorm electricity was free. Then the exchange I used shut down and its founder ran off with the funds. I didn't come back until 2017, when I got into Ethereum. What was your first coin?

Last week on stream I said a dip to 80K would trap a lot of people. Bitcoin wicked to about 80K this week. The trap: people call 50K next, then get liquidated as Bitcoin heads to 92K. Classic early bull run

Bitcoin options max pain is the price where the most options expire worthless. Price can drift toward it into expiry, because that's where market makers pay the least. I treat it as a short-term pull on price. It tells you nothing about where Bitcoin goes long term

Someone asked me how much to put into IBIT. I don't hold IBIT. It's institutional Bitcoin and tracks the exact same price, so I answer it as a Bitcoin question
