here are some harsh truths that you need to hear especially if you're new to the cryptocurrency market CU a lot of people come in brigh eyed and bushy teal and of course very naive of how Sinister these markets really can be of how unforgiving and merciless these markets are financial markets in general particularly crypto is a player versus player game so I want to talk to you about some of the things that you need to disabuse yourself of when you come into these kind of markets so that you're not looking at things with rose tinted
glasses and that you can make smart decisions and not give into greed and making silly decisions based on fomo okay so let's get into it first thing you have to accept this truth right now in the market cycle you're late you're not super late there's still a lot of upside potential there's still great opportunities there's new coins launching all the time there's lots of great stuff going on okay but a lot of you guys are chasing assets particularly when they pump to buy high and only to sell low later when they start going through a
distribution phase or what's going to happen to a lot of people people who are not even really paying attention to the market yet I'm probably not going to see this video is that they are going to come in right around the cycle Peak buy and then sell at the bottom I guess somebody has to buy the top ideally you don't want to be you though that's how you lose all your money okay still a lot of great buying opportunities a lot of great assets at this point in the market not as good as there were
in the past 18 months obviously but still some great deals out there but that window for Great Deals is closing and a lot of people are just going to come and buy the top you don't want to be a top buyer okay you want to be a top seller keep that in mind okay don't give into that fomo that makes you you know just blast on the top of every altcoin that you see when it's Mega pumping or when the cycle is going crazy and Jimmy Fallon launched his meme coin and all that stuff that's
not when you want to buy it's when you get out of that market man okay because that leads me to the second truth the cryptocurrency market always blows a bubble okay right now the bubble's like this it's expanding though and at some point it's going to pop because it always pops every single damn time and right before it's about to pop you're are going to have people telling you this is the super cycle this time is different don't worry about the macro stuff the macro stuff isn't going to affect the crypto markets it's just so
bullish do you see what's happening for Bitcoin this reason and that reason and the other reason it's all it's all there will be another bare Market it'll come quick it'll be vicious when it comes and most of you will lose most of your money when that happens so sorry but if you can accept that this Market blows a bubble every time that we're going to see stupid valuations on stuff and that when you see utterly stupid valuations you have life-changing money on the table if you can be brave enough to say hey this Market's overheated
and I need to change my life with this lifechanging money on the table then you're going to win most people won't do that they let greed take over and they'll lose number three most of these coins are total if you haven't figured that out yet I just yeah figure it out now because most of these coins are total crap Layer Two governance tokens get out of here you're going to go govern the platform no you're not no you're not now look there are some tokens that offer governance features as well as doing other stuff you
can stake them for rewards and stuff like that sure fine that's different but a lot of these coins people are buying up and putting up to stupid multi-billion dollar valuations literally do nothing except let you govern the platform you're not going to govern the damn platform who you kidding even if you do I'm coming in with my 10 coins yeah the VCS and the team control everything your opinion doesn't matter anyway and that's just the tip of the iceberg a lot of these AI agents are going to be total a lot of the meme every
meme coin basically is total and will drop 99.99% in fact there's so many mem coins out right now that 99.9999% of them die within a couple hours of even launching but the ones that get big right and go on to hundreds of millions of dollars or billions of dollars a market cap the vast majority of those when the risk off time comes in the market and again that comes really soon in a very quick way I'm not saying soon in the market cycle but you know in the next 3 six months you might see a
major risk-off event for the market and when it does it happens real fast when that happens altcoins are going to suffer and meme coins are going to suffer the worst because there's absolutely no reason to own these damn things oh there'll be a great Buy on some of these bigger cult meme coins like Pepe and stuff like that at the bottom of the bare Market but doesn't mean it's not going to go down like 99% because it will okay be careful number four kind of related to point number three but uh fundamentals really don't matter
that much there are so many fundamentally great cryptocurrency coins that just lag in price because the market primarily does not trade on fundamentals fundamentals are great and they certainly help okay but they don't matter as much as most people think they do fcoin got to a billion dollars you're going to tell me fundamentals matter a frog picture Pepe coin is worth1 billion you're going to tell me fundamentals matter Pepe coin is worth more than a and worth more than maker Dow combined those are two of the most important decentralized Finance protocols in the entirety of
the industry fundamentals don't matter as much as you think they do especially during a bull market now fundamentals ironically might add matter a bit more in a bare Market but they still go down 99% but certainly during a bull market what matters is hype what matters is attention money flows where attention flows and as soon as you understand that you're going to do a lot better in these markets now real quick let's do a quick shout out to today's sponsor before we get into the other harsh truths that you need to hear and that is
coin stats now coin stats is a portfolio tracker and a must-have tool for investors that's because coin stats lets you connect pretty much any exchange or any wallet that you have into their app so you can track all of your transaction history you can keep track of everything that you're doing on chain and on Exchange see your profit and loss statements deep analytics of your portfolio all kinds of charts and stuff like that making it really easy to manage what you're doing because of course just selling for Max profits obviously very important but actually keeping
track of everything knowing how much you made knowing where your coins are not forgetting about anything all this stuff matters and here are some interesting Alpha for you with wallet Explorer you can actually search wallets across 120 different blockchains and see detailed analytics and if you want to follow any particular wallet you can just add it to the watch list so if you find some whale wallets who got in early to Bay and dog with hat and stuff like that you can turn on notifications for those wallets and when they buy a new meme coin
you can be the first to know pretty cool right it also has all kinds of other cool features like portfolio analytics and historical graphs which of course means that it does a lot of the heavy lifting portfolio wise for you in terms of keeping track of everything you you're somebody like me who uses multiple wallets multiple exchange I have so many wallon Exchange accounts it's ridiculous then it could be a pretty easy decision to see the value in this tool and to get yourself an account they even have an easy to use mobile app with
a great user interface you can check everything on the go to keep up to date with your portfolio wherever you're going here's the deal coin stats right now is giving my community you guys a 50% discount which is an insane discount using the link Down Below in the description making this a very affordable and necessary tool go check it out and thank you for supporting our sponsors number five you have to understand this that nobody in this industry truly really gives a about you this is a player versus player game we are not all going
to make it together we're not we are simply not and anybody telling you that is full of because again in order for you to sell the top somebody has to buy the top and that person buying the top is not going to make it quite simply you extrapolate that out you have a large amount of early buyers who are going to be selling to a large amount of late buyers the only person who is in charge of your portfolio is you of your investing decisions is you of your buy orders is you of your sell
orders is you okay there's a lot of good meaning content creators and stuff out there who are going to help guide you on the way and provide education all that kind of stuff but at the end of the day it's you alone in front of your computer and that's a very powerful responsibility when it comes to your money and you have to understand that number six content creators whether it be here on YouTube or on Tik Tok or on X or wherever else guess what they have have bags of crypto coins and we talk about
them now you're going to see a gargantuan amount of undisclosed Shilling for altcoins meme coins Etc people get bags early give them free from the teams whatever just disclose guys disclose if you're a content creator and you're seeing this just disclose gosh darn it okay you can always find my disclosures by the way down here on uh YouTube you'll find it in the description or over on X you'll find it in the pinned comment that's got all my current portfolio Holdings my Venture rounds My OTC deals plus a risk statement because of course investing in
crypto is risky you can lose all your money but you do see a lot of this and of course it's not always bad that you know content creators have bags I've got a lot of bags I talk about my bags all the time again you can see the full portfolio disclosures down there but of course I talk about my bags that's funny sometimes people are like well Arc why aren't you talking about my bags because they're your bags not my bags okay I want to see my investments do well I believe in the things that
I invested in I think they have potential for one reason or another sometimes more potential or less potential depending on the coin but of of course I talk about my bags and other content creators will as well so if you see somebody talking about a coin you should assume that they have it even if they're not directly telling you that they have it and also keep in mind that creates a conflict of interest where people want to Hype things up people want to get you to buy those coins okay so just again it's not all
Kum by ey out here baby all right there's a lot of crazy stuff going on and you need to be fully aware of that all right the next part most people lose most of their money there's a variety of reasons why this happens but by coming into this Market you are running the odds especially if you're coming in late okay now there's a variety of reasons why people lose their money probably the most common is just buying high and selling low and giving into the fomo but there's also rug poles constantly in crypto whether it
be New Meme coins launching new AI agent launching or just semi legitimate seeming coins that kind of do the slow rug where they don't really launch anything meaningful they just keep enough interest going so they can team can just slowly exit out through their tokens or aird drops that farm you you're not really farming the airdrop they're farming you they make tens of millions of dollars off of your transaction fees cumulative you everybody together and then they drop you a few bucks later on thanks for all the free money losers that happens all the time
okay there's a lot of a lot of where you're going to lose your money in this space look we love to focus on the winners great but the reality is a lot of people a lot of you guys are going to lose Lo a lot of your money because I don't mean this in the wrong way so don't take it like that but a lot of people coming into the market are like babies walking into a Wolf Den okay people who have been here multicycle are much more experienced they walk they don't walk into the
Wolf Den okay but the reality is in this market you are up against organized cabals who do organized pump and dumps who organize thousands of meme coins who get into all these meme coins early and all this kind of stuff there are snipers on chain who have more technical knowledge than you there are whales who simply control the price of many assets okay they have more money they have more experience and they are merciless they are ruthless okay again if you're new to the market you're like a baby walking into the Wolf Den which is
why it's probably better for most of you to stick with the top coins and not go down the route of finding all this low cap stuff where a a lot more of this Malarkey happens let's say Okay number eight the market loves to focus on exceptional stories of winners okay and you want to be that winner and that's part of the thing that draws people into crypto they see the stories of the guy who put a hundred bucks in a meme coin and it turned into millions you could be that person not going to lie
you could be that person but there's a 99.99% chance that you're not going to be that person you actually have better odds of going and making a bunch of money at the Casino versus hitting it big on the next mem coin for most of you anyway as some of you guys are really in the trenches and you do have the technical knowledge you can run sniper Bots you're in the Discord groups early etc etc you're willing to take the risks of manag this all this stuff yeah you do have a decent chance of hitting it
big but I know guys are in the trenches all the time and it's just rug pole after rug pole after rug pole and yeah you make some money from some of them but so many of them just go to zero okay the chances are especially as a casual investor in this space You Are going to be the rule not the exception I know you want to be the exception but you're probably going to be the rule and that's tough to hear and I know you're going to want to go and try to be the exception
anyway don't say I didn't tell you number nine the market is efficient it is that's not the efficient market hypothesis but just the reality of the market is that if you don't manage your risk the market will manage it for you I've been slapped in the face like that a few times by the market it's true and you will take your profits or the market will take them for you it's very efficient at moving the money from your pocket into other people's pockets very good at it now if you're on the right side of the
equation the market can be very efficient about moving money from other people's pockets into your pockets okay because you bought low and you sold high right but just understand that simple reality number 10 I know this has been maybe not my usual kind of like yeah guys let's go video but I think you need to hear this stuff it may sound a little harsh but I want you to know this I am your biggest fan I am actually out here rooting for you to win I want you to win I celebrate winners I hope that
some of this information will help you see the market with less roast tinted glasses and more about the reality of the ruthless Marketplace that it actually is I want you to stay in the game I want you to keep clicking keep getting in those discords early keep finding the new Alpha early the odds are stacked against newcomers it is true but the more that you learn the more knowledge you get the more onchain you are the the more your study the earlier we are to the next big narratives the better the odds are that you're
going to win the more locked in you can be the more likely you are to win okay and this the tough love that you need to hear okay and you need to keep in mind again not everyone is going to make it some of you will but a lot of the people who are doing the things I just talked about in this video are the ones who are not going to make it they're Outsourcing they thinking to content creators they're foming into every top all this kind of stuff you have to do your own research
you have to make sure that you're never risking more than you can afford to lose and you have to understand this is not kumbi out here baby this is a financial Market it's a ruthless place and people will take your money very quickly okay there is no orderly exit at the top and everyone at the end of the day is watching out for themselves in their bags good luck
