Time to Pull The Trigger

So, a few rockets (something like 500 of them, actually) flew into Israel’s airspace the other day, reportedly shot from Iran, according to some sources on Twitter. Plenty of them were neutralized by the Iron Dome, Israel’s insanely efficient air defense system, but unfortunately, some hit the ground.

To me, that means war, and Israel has promised to retaliate. The markets took a dip, with Bitcoin being the first to do so (safe haven, my ass), while gold actually saw a price increase during the few hours these events unfolded.

What’s weird to me about wars these days is that both sides are announcing their moves in advance. That didn’t used to happen back in the good old days of bloody and dirty wars on this planet. But, as usual, some will suffer, and others will make a ton of money.

The military-industrial complex in the US has been making a hell of a lot of money over the past two years, and that’s because wars aren’t won by any of the sides involved—they’re meant to drag on so the warmongers can stuff their pockets while the plebs die in combat.

It seems the chief of NATO, some Dutch dude who just took office, is already claiming that Ukraine will join NATO. Well, if it doesn’t do that by November this year, the only thing it’ll be joining is a long waiting line in front of BlackRock, waiting for the largest AUM fund in the world to rebuild it from scratch.

Chances are, Trump will get elected. Kamala and the ones behind her will try to steal as much as possible, but my take is that the orange man is going to get back into office this year. Once he’s there, the billions Ukraine usually gets from the US in military aid will stop, and Zelensky’s ass will be fried. Probably by Mr. Putin himself...

Meanwhile, we degenerates in crypto will keep trading Bitcoin and riding the four cycles, whether the war in the Middle East escalates or not. I doubt anything will stop this shit from rising, despite the volatility.

Personally, I’ve aped into a few shitcoins lately, with MFER being the best-performing one so far. I don’t have fresh money to pour into the market—wish I did—so instead, I rebalanced my portfolio by selling off some poor performers for freshly hyped ones. Memes seem to be the thing this cycle, and I want in on the action.

I’m only 10% invested in meme coins, so I’m not a complete degenerate. I don’t want too much risk weighing on my shoulders over the next few months, but I do believe 2025 could be life-changing for us crypto dudes, so I’ve positioned myself accordingly.

October has just started, and there are already plenty of voices saying it won’t be a proper “Uptober” like the market has treated us to over the years. All I can say is, the majority is always wrong... If there’s one thing crypto has taught me, it’s to never position myself on the side of the majority.

That’s about it from me for now. I wish you all a great day, and see you next time.

Thanks for your attention,
Adrian
