“Crypto is worthless!” — and so is fiat money. A short reflection on value.
Fun etymology first:
The word 'fiat' comes from Latin and means “let it be so” or “it shall be.”
Fiat money is, quite literally, money that has value because we agreed it has value.
A €20 bill is not useful because of the paper it’s printed on. You can’t eat it, you can’t build a house with it. It works because we trust the system behind it and because everyone else accepts it.
So when people say: “Cryptocurrencies have no inherent value,” they’re kind of right.
But the same is true for most money we use every day.
The better question is not: “Does it have intrinsic value?”
The real question is: What is it useful for?
Crypto and blockchain are useful because they let people:
- send value across the world, fast and without asking permission,
- own digital assets without relying on one company or one bank,
- and verify things instead of just trusting one central authority.
That doesn’t mean every coin is valuable. Far from it.
There is a lot of hype, noise, and nonsense in crypto. Just like there are bad companies and bubbles in the regular financial world.
But saying “crypto is worthless” is a bit like saying “the internet is useless because there are scams and clickbait.”
The technology can still be meaningful, even if many uses are bad or speculative.
Money is a tool.
Value is a shared belief plus real-world usefulness.
From that angle, crypto isn’t magic money.
But as a global, digital, open system for moving and owning value, it clearly offers something new — and that’s where its real value might live.

good explanation. The psychological mastery is harder then one might expect 😅.
My advice for beginners: trade spot, not perps 😅

Why 90% of Traders Lose Money and How You Can Avoid It
Today, we are going to talk about something every beginner must understand before risking real money.
"why most traders lose money".
If you have ever wondered why some people seem to win consistently while others always lose, this thread will explain the key mistakes beginners make and how you can avoid them.
Let’s dive in
Many beginners think traders lose money because the market is hard.
That’s not the real reason.
Most traders lose money because of how they behave, not because of the strategy they use.
You can give 100 people the same strategy and most of them will still lose. Why? Because trading is more psychological than technical.
Here are the main reasons beginners lose money.n
1. No risk management.
They enter trades with big lot sizes, risking 20–50% of their account on one trade. One loss wipes them out. Professionals risk 1–2% per trade. Beginners gamble.
2. overtrading.
They feel they must always be in a trade. Every small move looks like an opportunity. They don’t understand that sometimes the best trade is no trade.
3. FOMO (fear of missing out).
They buy when price is already high and sell when price is already low. They chase candles instead of planning entries.
4. No trading plan.
They enter because of a signal, a tweet, or a feeling. No defined entry, no stop loss, no take profit. Just hope.
5. Revenge trading.
After a loss, they try to win it back immediately with a bigger trade. This usually leads to bigger losses.
6. Ignoring higher timeframes.
They trade only on small timeframes where noise is high and signals are weak. They don’t check the bigger picture.
7. Emotional decision making.
Fear makes them close winning trades too early. Greed makes them hold losing trades too long.
All these mistakes have one thing in common: lack of discipline.
The market rewards patience, planning and control. It punishes impulsive behavior.
The good news is this: you don’t need a complex strategy to be profitable. You need simple rules and the discipline to follow them.
Risk small per trade Wait for clear setups Follow a planAccept losses calmlyTrade less, think more
If you can master your behavior, you are already ahead of most traders.
Trading success is not about predicting the market. It’s about managing yourself.

Solid take. Ethereum has been shipping important upgrades in recent past (Fusaka). I see no reason why he would suddenly abandon Ethereum or kill his own project.
Vitalik Dumping? Slow Down.
Heard Vitalik just moved a few thousand ETH again? Instant panic in the chats: "The founder's dumping — Ethereum's done." But let's cut the noise and look closer.
Yeah, ~3K ETH (~$6.6M) left his wallet over three days. But this isn't some panic sell. Back in January, Buterin laid it out clearly: the Foundation's shifting to what he called "soft hard savings." Why? To stretch that 16K ETH withdrawal over years of ecosystem building — privacy tools, decentralized staking research, open-source infra, self-custody tooling.
My take? This isn't an exit signal. It's a pivot: the Foundation isn't a vault to sit on bags — it's fuel for the mission. Vitalik's been blunt: Ethereum's North Star is user sovereignty and security, not corporate adoption or short-term hype cycles.
Sure, every one of his transactions jiggles the price. But confusing planned treasury management with lost faith in ETH? That's lazy reading. The real question isn't whether he's selling — it's whether we're ready to see strategy behind the movement instead of hunting for panic triggers.
So tell me — will the market ever stop treating his every transfer like the end of days?

$ZENT is actually performing well in these terrible market conditions.
I suspect team is doing buybacks to support current level. Which tells us a lot about their conviction.
They are currently building their shift from gaming meta to AI market insights. ZTerminal, the Bloomberg of CT.
They also have the new Vault mechanism to be launched.
I expect positive PA when launch is confirmed.

you're right. current performance is notable in these market conditions. zentry is currently in a building phase. so expect PA when the new Vault and zTerminal launch.
$ZENT is silent but dangerous
Price hovering near $0.00392, barely moving and that’s exactly what makes it interesting
Notice the long downside wicks? Liquidity hunts already happened. Sellers got absorbed, panic got erased. Now price is glued in a tight band while smart money accumulates quietly. Market cap steady, holders solid, volatility asleep… until it isn’t
These are the charts that move after everyone stops watching.
Stay sharp. Stay patient. (NFA)

I know $BEAMX has a bad reputation for some 'older' traders.
But I'm feeling bullish actually. They have matured and are no longer a 'gaming chain' but an actual full stack L1.
Recently they acquired and launched Dreamcash for 100%. it's a Dex on #Hyperliquid and they are doing almost 1B trading volume after 10 Days 👀
This will benefit $BEAMX greatly, so I bought a (granted 'modest size' bag)

Breaking news!
To pay for his criminal case, former Venezuelan president Madura has launched his own token '$MADURA'.
He is trying to launch his token with a picture taken on the American Luxury Cruise, the USS Iwo Jima, showing him blindfolded with the words 'Luchar, Luchar, Luchar!' written on top of it.
Do you think it will rival $TRUMP ?

Bullish48 HOURS THAT SHOOK THE WORLD
December 5: The European Union fines X €120 million. First penalty ever under the Digital Services Act.
December 7: The owner of X calls for the EU to be abolished.
“I mean it. Not kidding.”
8 million views. 194,000 likes. And counting.
This is not a regulatory dispute. This is the owner of the world’s town square, serving simultaneously as a senior US government official, calling for the dissolution of a 27-nation political union governing 450 million citizens and €17 trillion in combined GDP.
The sequence:
Fine issued. Ad account terminated. Abolition demanded.
Three moves. Forty-eight hours. The post-war European order now faces its most direct challenge from a private citizen since 1945.
What makes this different from every billionaire grievance before it:
He owns the platform.
He advises the American president.
He controls the satellites.
He builds the rockets.
He moves markets with single sentences.
The EU has no app store to threaten. No ad revenue to pull. No infrastructure leverage. Their only power was regulatory. And the man they fined just told 600 million monthly users their institution should cease to exist.
If Brussels escalates, they validate his narrative of overreach.
If Brussels retreats, they signal regulatory capture.
If Brussels ignores, they appear irrelevant.
There is no clean exit.
The question is no longer whether platforms are too powerful.
The question is whether anyone remains powerful enough to govern them.
We are watching the collision between 20th century institutions and 21st century infrastructure in real time.
The tribunal has been dismissed by the defendant.
What comes next has no precedent.

Revenue is the new Meta!
or is it...?
Can real revenue really impact the token price?!
Well yes and no.
A DePIN project can make real profits. But how much of that % needs to be reinvested into the token to have Real impact ?
A'nswer: Too much! Maybe in a very long period it might be substantial.
The main effect is psychological. The thought of a project making real revenue gives it a status of 'safe investment', making more ppl susceptibale to keep their tokens for 'the long run'...
