Financial freedom means you must remember to take it easy: Seeing a post shared by netizens, Wang Shi personally admitted in a small-scale exchange that all three of his entrepreneurial projects after retirement have failed. Ecological agriculture, zero-carbon buildings, and cultural IP did not survive; issues arose in the funding chain, team, and market one after another. However, he left behind a phrase: "As long as I can still move, I will try again," and no one applauded at the scene, but everyone remembered those hands full of age spots still gesturing in the air. Many of us who are financially free always want to change our ways of living, to prove ourselves once again. It's all nonsense; success has many factors, the most important of which is the luck of the times, which cannot be replicated. After achieving financial freedom, investing old capital and messing around again, failure will be quite disgraceful. If money is tight, reduce some non-essential expenses; investing in entrepreneurship is the biggest luxury that can lead to irreparable consequences. I have encountered this situation far too many times. Do not treat the dividends of the times as your own ability; sometimes conservatism is the greatest blessing. The old money families in Hong Kong live comfortably collecting rent without leverage, while the old money that messed around went bankrupt. $BNB {future}(BNBUSDT)
To be continued... I only heard about Banmu Xia, the "Demigod," quite late. By the time I started paying attention to him, the bull market had already ended, but back then, nobody thought Bitcoin would stop at 69,800. Everyone felt there would be new highs, or one last surge. Because during that peak, all the communities and influential figures were still very active. Seeing a lot of Banmu Xia's posts at that time, I felt he wasn't just a demigod, he was a true god... The incredibly high win rate and extremely high profit/loss ratio were dazzling! Why wait any longer to follow his lead? I started checking his Weibo every day, eagerly awaiting his updates. Later, when Bitcoin retraced to around 64, he started saying there would be a rebound and a new high. Because it was so long ago, I don't remember the exact details, but that was the gist. However, at the time, I still thought the price was high, and I was also busy, so I didn't enter the market. In hindsight, this was a kind of "blessing in disguise." A few months later, when I checked again, he was already trapped, still firmly believing it would rise. I saw that Bitcoin's price had reached 49,000 by then. I thought, even if I didn't make money by following his lead, I wouldn't be trapped so badly...
It's been 6 months since I've been out of positions, and there are still no bears. It's getting annoying waiting. The ones making money these past few months are okx and aave, I've copied them once. The price I want to buy at is still far away.
It is because everyone has to do a 1000 USD stablecoin contract to participate in Binance activities

USDC is starting to trade at a premium against USDT, which is not a normal phenomenon.
Currently, there isn't much active demand for USDC, and on-chain activity is also average, yet the price is being pushed to a premium. This can only indicate that the group using USDC as a settlement unit is engaging in large-scale sell-offs.
This group typically consists of institutions, quantitative traders, and cautious traders, with a scale of at least one billion dollars. Once they convert their assets into USDC, what does it indicate?
It's simple: institutions and retail investors in Europe and America are not optimistic about the short-term market. So the market sentiment you see now is a standard panic phase, but this kind of panic is not a buying opportunity for clear reasons: Large funds settling in USDC are still selling; as long as the selling pressure continues, prices may keep declining.
Once USDC/USDT returns to parity, funds will no longer rush to USDC as a safe-haven tool. If by that time BTC prices remain stable around current levels, it will be the right stage to gradually invest.
What did you use to score 17 points? How much wear?

It's not difficult to roll up. This morning brushing still made a little profit.. It's too laggy during the day, I usually get up around four or five in the morning, and it's done in a few clicks.
Alpha June 11 New Event: From 4 to 6 PM, tge is launching the Meet48 project, the threshold is 229 points, did you get it? I eat three fish a day, pretty tasty. The coins received after 8 AM this morning, notified yesterday: Resolv and Home, sold for 134u and 86u respectively.
The target of 150,000-180,000 for Bitcoin remains unchanged, just hold onto the Bitcoin you have. Isn't it true that every drop in the past few days has scared off a bunch of people? I don't really want to talk about the market anymore, it's very simple, just buy when it drops. For details, check out my live stream replay from a few days ago.
Is there anyone still looking at the big target of 70,000?
Binance @binancezh Alpha's TGE this time is quite good, CUDIS @CudisWellness can sell for around 130U at most, and the current market value is about 30 million dollars.
The ring from CUDIS was previously made, and the quality is quite good, the APP is also well done, it can be considered one of the few DePIN projects that can be implemented.
Isn't it like this? Every decision and action has an effect.

I increasingly like this sentence by Shi Tiesheng: A person, during a summer at the age of thirteen or fourteen, picked up a real gun. Due to youthful ignorance, he pulled the trigger. No one died, and no one was injured; he thought he had fired a blank. Later, when he was thirty or older, walking down the street, he heard a faint sound of wind behind him. He stopped, turned around, and the bullet hit him right between the eyes.
Whether in life or in trading, what we adhere to and what we do will one day, in the future, hit us right between the eyes.
We always make choices that affect our entire lives without even realizing it.
Invested 200,000 here, in 3 days! Clean and straightforward, maybe I don't understand technology, nor do I understand the market. So I'll accept my losses! I have already reached the lowest point of despair.
📦 Binance May Airdrop & TGE Earnings Report 🎯 Total Earnings: $170 🔑 Minimum Entry (Alpha Points): 142 points 📅 Airdrop/TGE Instances This Month: 4 times In May, you can earn points for free, don't miss the next round!🪂#空投分享
Wool pulling alert! The Binance-style high-profit airdrop is here!
This operation is similar to the Alpha airdrop back in the day—new users can get on board by depositing 0.01 BNB (equivalent to 6 dollars), and the transaction fee is only 0.2U, which rounds up to free money!
Remember the key date: May 7th, the gate closes on time, there's still time to rush in!
Old hands know that such zero-threshold airdrops are benefits for retail investors; how many people earned ten times back with Alpha?
This time, don’t just be a spectator, just a couple of taps on your phone can lock in your assets, if you miss it, you'll really regret it!
I think it's the same as cutting, we still need to do a good job in basic infrastructure.

Many people are curious why CZ doesn't continue to support #Mubarak. Is the market about to end?
In fact, quite the opposite; BSC now already resembles the SOL bull market.
The narrative is no longer limited to CZ; more and more original memes are being born.
For example, $BUBB can surge to 20M quickly, just like the rise of various artists on SOL back in the day.
I think this is the effect that Big Brother wants.
A chain can only thrive and have real value if there is a long-term development space for memes on it.
Look at Brother Sun; how many memes has he created? Each time it's as clear as day, making platforms and providing subsidies. Did it work out in the end?
No, because he can only rely on shouting; if he stops shouting, it starts to drop. There is no ecosystem on TRX, and there is no meme culture; everyone is just gambling.
But the ETH vote passed, and the price didn't rise either, the trading volume on SOL is high

The Last Hope of Solana Shattered
Just an hour ago, a significant vote that decided the fate of Solana was rejected. I summarize it as: the retail uprising against the capitalists has failed once again.
Last night, the resolution SIMD-0228 was just 0.1% short of passing, and I was incredibly excited. However, when I checked this morning, the spark of revolution was ruthlessly stifled in the cradle by the big players (capital) and was heartlessly rejected. Damn.
Currently, the annual inflation rate for Solana tokens is 4.91%, with an annual issuance of 28 million $SOL, which translates to a selling pressure of $3.46 billion at the current price. The vote yesterday aimed to "dynamically adjust the inflation rate based on the staking rate."
This could reduce the overall issuance of SOL, decrease selling pressure, and boost market confidence and coin prices while protecting the interests of stakers.
But it's over; this compromise proposal was also ruthlessly crushed by the capitalists.
It's over. SOL → 79 see.
Note: The proposal voting results are as follows https://simd-dashboard.vercel.app/0228
The bull market is almost over now, and the bull market is just starting.

Why am I starting to be bearish on $SOL ???
Decentralization is the way to go
Recently, everyone has been hyping up SOL while simultaneously trashing ETH. This scenario is completely expected, but ultimately, the core meaning of blockchain is decentralization. The Ethereum ecosystem is maintained by global developers and users, while SOL? To put it bluntly, it is the darling of VC capital, controlled by a few big players, so the path for spot ETFs won't be smooth.
The casino games will eventually come to an end
The current hype around SOL is essentially a speculative frenzy driven by meme coins. The play with on-chain shitcoins is similar to a casino, relying on things like Pump.fun to manipulate prices. Early entrants make money while later buyers get wrecked. But this illusion cannot last forever; over time, most players will realize they haven't made any money, and some may even lose everything, leading them to withdraw. Moreover, when a bull market arrives, the gains from stable assets will also be considerable, providing more ways to profit. Who would still gamble on shitcoins?
Historical patterns do not change
Looking back, EOS, TRON, ADA, and DOT, these 'Ethereum killers' have all had a high opening followed by a low decline, and SOL will be no exception. It's easy to make bold claims and boast, but ultimately the market votes with real money. If SOL were really that great, why did Trump and institutions choose ETH's ETF instead of SOL? The answer is self-evident.
ETH is the long-term king
In terms of future certainty, ETH remains incredibly strong. L2, spot ETFs, real-world assets (RWA), along with the upcoming Prague upgrade, these are the real moats. It’s not that SOL won’t rise, but it’s very likely to underperform ETH. So, SOL holders shouldn't go all in, and ETH holders shouldn't easily cut losses; be smart and follow certainty.
