This is one of my favorite crypto mentors. Some good philosophies here:
(1) Stay focused and centered; don’t over diversify – Have just 10-12 projects you are in.
(2) Make an exit plan and follow it (don’t hold your bags all the way up and then back down!)
(3) Have 3-5 “high risk plays” (he discusses options)

There may be an opportunity to rotate into this sector during a current slump. Hint: it’s not memecoins 😉…

Bitcoin Technical Analysis + Crypto Market Update:
Bitcoin’s recent move—an $8,000 drop and a swift rebound—triggered a massive liquidation
event, the largest we’ve seen since 2021. We witnessed a “Darth Maul” candle: a rapid price
swing both up and down that liquidated countless longs and shorts. Typically, when Bitcoin
shakes the tree like this, altcoins suffer a more dramatic fall. However, that was not the case this
time. Rather, alts maintained their strength and then experienced a surge during the rebound,
suggesting a shift in the overall market narrative. This resilience sends a powerful signal:
traders and investors are looking beyond Bitcoin. Although leverage remains risky in this
heightened volatility, the fact that alts barely flinched as Bitcoin stumbled is a monumental
indicator that we’re truly stepping into a new cycle phase focused on altcoins.
Let’s Discuss Alt Season:
Alt season doesn’t just flick on like a switch; it takes time, and early confirmation comes through
price action during market turbulence. We recently witnessed the performance of alts under
pressure, and they successfully navigated through it. Historically, once alt season sets in, it can
last for weeks or even months. Most importantly, the biggest gains typically happen later in the
cycle, when momentum reaches its peak. With retail interest soaring—search volumes and
excitement around major coins like XRP, ALGO, and HBAR are spiking—this is the perfect time
to position yourself well. But simplicity is key. Focusing on accessible, large-cap altcoins listed
across major exchanges is an obvious strategy for capturing significant upside with less
complexity and risk.
You Can’t Go Wrong With These Altcoins [MAJOR ALPHA]:
I compiled a comprehensive list of altcoins featured on the world’s leading centralized
exchanges, Binance, Upbit, Coinbase, and Robinhood, to identify these easy-to-invest in plays.
The idea is that retail traders will gravitate to coins they can buy easily, without needing to
navigate complex bridging or DEX swaps. From that refined pool of around 91 altcoins, a
handful stand out: APTOS, DOGE, LINK, NEAR, ONDO, PEPE, SEI, SOLANA, STX, and XRP.
These names successfully combine strong fundamentals, high accessibility, and proven interest.
Many are familiar from 2021’s bull run, and they’re still around, evolving with the market. These
coins can deliver substantial returns—5x to 10x—from current levels, offering you exposure to
the upside of alt season without gambling on risky, obscure projects.
Opportunity Within The Base Ecosystem:
Beyond large-caps, the Base ecosystem represents a new frontier. Fresh inflows, active
communities, and intuitive themes like gaming and DeFi are taking hold. CHAMPS, backed by
Coinbase and Animocha, remains small and poised for significant growth.

Hey ARF Family, I stumbled across a new (old) defi portfolio tracker with some cool features that you may like. Watch this short video to learn more…

AERO moving nicely again, now at 1.85 after hitting a high of almost 2 earlier yesterday. Consider slowly scaling out above $2, maybe every 10% up or until it loses momentum.
-
TAO finally broke above local highs and I expect it to surpass $1000 in the not so distant future, they are still the strongest AI-ecosystem and have major developments coming up including EVM smart contracts, Dynamic Tao subnet tokens and multiple funding initiatives from big names like Barry Silbert (Grayscale Ceo) and others.
If TAO breaks all-time highs soon I expect subnet tokens to also perform well as beta plays…

CPOOL, up 2x from when I grabbed a bag a few weeks back. It’s YTD high at 0.4 today. I don’t have a strong opinion on short-term PA from here but bullish on it going higher over the next couple months leading up to the Ozean mainnet launch.

Added EDGE to my AI/DePIN portfolio.
Given the mix of a) low valuation ($17m market cap) vs tech (they actually launched the EDGE token in 2018 and have technically been building since 2013!).
Compared to competitors like AKT ($1.1b FDV) and RNDR ($5b FDV), I think it’s undervalued. Classic case of great fundamentals, but a lack of public awareness (until now).
Some more details (from my research notes):
$EDGE TLDR:
What is Edge Network?
→ Think of Edge as Web3’s version of AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure—but entirely decentralized.
→ It’s already generating $1.3M ARR with a ridiculously low $10M FDV.
→The company provides more than 12 products in its stack, such as virtual machines, content delivery network (CDN), DNS, dVPN, and GPU rentals..
Why Now?
→ AI is the foundation of the 4th Industrial Revolution. Goldman Sachs estimates cloud revenues will hit $2T by 2030, fueled by AI adoption.
→ Edge is perfectly positioned to meet the demand for faster, greener, and cheaper infrastructure.
→Enterprises are prioritizing ESG-compliant, AI-first infrastructure, and Edge’s 50% greener platform makes it an obvious choice..
Key Features
→ Fortune 500 Clients: Edge has been adopted by Monocle, Bauer Media, and previously Virgin.
→ Full Stack Offering: Unlike Akash, Render, or Filecoin (which are niche players), Edge delivers a complete decentralized stack.
→ Proven Revenue: Unlike many speculative projects, Edge’s products are live and generating real revenue.
Tokenomics → Low inflation (1.3% per year) + deflationary mechanisms (buybacks + burns).
→ Nearly all tokens in circulation (77%), ensuring no dilution risk.
→ The Edge ecosystem settles every transaction in $EDGE, resulting in constant buy-side pressure.
Note: This is a low/mid-cap play, so it falls into my 20% riskier holdings bucket. With a $25M FDV, it’s criminally undervalued compared to competitors like Akash and Render, which have reached multi-billion-dollar valuations. I have been personally advising the team on marketing strategy.
Note: If you want to buy, scale in slowly and watch for slippage as it’s only on DEX right now and liquidity isn’t amazing.

So, based on this analysis, if I have a high-asset individual wanting to get into the MV, would you suggest they wait? No point in aping in right before a correction.

It was a long time ago. I don’t recall. I remember bridging over. I know I used Stargazer wallet. I may have bought it on MECX???
