6 rights, 2 wrongs
Is that a right overall?
Wrong.

I have been watching the bearish market unfold on the sideline, one that whacked almost every single asset class except for oil. Gold was not spared either as its price is sensitive to the Fed's rate hike. (Since it is mostly used as an inflation hedge in an investment portfolio, the non-yielding asset will have continued selling pressure if Fed continues its interest rate hike.) The worst of the bear-beaten lot must be cryptocurrency. Summer seems officially over and I don't know how long will this winter lasts. The massacre just got worse these few days. I was too confident and complacent last year to not harvest a fair share of profits while the sun shines. At the beginning of this year, I still DCA-ed into a few of them and thought maybe the sky was just... cloudy.. Until the hail storm comes, I have finally awoken to the fact that it is really winter now and how one catastrophe can trigger huge ripple effects. Some of my holdings with biggest price percentage decline: List
Among many great crypto articles I have read last year, I have curated three of which I felt are still relevant to date and very insightful. If you are looking to read more brain-stimulating articles, you could also check out my recommendations in the Weekend Brain Food series (mostly are non-crypto related). So here we go. Trading the metagame "Watching the winners & locating the problems in crypto can be a way of identifying potential metagames in advance." "Sometimes you can simply see that you missed the current meta and use that info to exit positions that are out of meta to preserve value , or just take a break and restore mental energy. As the meta and attention shifts to new things, capital bleeds out of previous metas. People sell the last meta they fomo’d for the next one. It’s a video game. Players want to play, they don’t want to be idle. Traders use the meta to exit/rebalance longer-term positions. If you had a big position in some token, which sudden
Richard Coffin @ The Plain Bagel Quoting - "Often I ll see someone promoting FIRE as something that comes down more to mindset than your circumstance as though it's something available to everyone." Quoting - "Whether it's worth taking the risks and downsides associated with FIRE comes down to your own VALUE ." My takeaway on whether FIRE is for one or not is very simple - Can FIRE bring you what you desire and enjoy in life?

What is Curve Finance? Before we dive into the tokenomic, I would recommend reading this article as a primer if you are not familiar yet with the Curve Protocol - Three minutes to take you to understand Curve Finance, the king of stablecoin trading platforms . (The article took me about 13 minutes to read instead of 3!) [I have purposely coloured the texts of various tokens such that it is easier to differentiate them as you read.] CRV is the native token of Curve Finance and distributed as reward for providing liquidity to the protocol. Now let's take a look at the brother protocol of Curve which serves a different purpose - Convex Finance. What is Convex Finance? It is a protocol that allows liquidity providers to earn trading fees and claim boosted CRV without locking up CRV themselves. Liquidity providers can receive boosted CRV and liquidity mining rewards (on Sushi) This means that one can stake their Curve LP token with ConvexFinance to get Convex LP tokens and then stake
Time bombs Everything's a time bomb when you think about it. Our life's inherently a time bomb. Stock market, crypto market are time bombs too. When we spend too much time worrying about time bombs, especially those that we have no control over, we are subjecting ourselves to unhealthy and stressful thoughts. You can make plans for the explosion time, if it makes embracing uncertainties easier. Don't live in jitters. Living the present When we don't waste time mauling the past and worrying about the future, we are present in mind for the present. We tackle the problems at hand with our best effort, then just let them roll. If something's solvable, try our hands at it again. But know when to move on. Don't go trying to lift a boulder out of the way when you can walk around it. Sometimes we delude ourselves into thinking there are no choices out there. Like you look at a tree and think it is the forest. You haven't probably haven't seen enough trees. The
