Inner Development & Spiritual Practice
The week's centerpiece was a single 1.5-hour Spaces session on Sep 14 that condensed his entire account into one talk on inner development [1], [2]. He said it felt good to get this out there, calling it 'basically all i learned in life thanks to the gift of extreme suffering when young' [1]. He later noted 1400+ listeners, estimating that if 1 in 10 take it seriously, 'quite a lot of people will embark on a true journey to the inside' [3]. Money does not equal contentment. He argued that '95% of all very rich people i met, where deeply disturbed, lost, miserable,' and that successful crypto traders often cannot step away from the screen or the dopamine cycle [4]. Infinite wealth without inner work leaves a person still lost. When @trader1sz warned that AI and robotics will strip humans of purpose, he pushed back: purpose from work must be replaced with purpose from inner development [5]. He laid out a framework where inner fulfillment flows into creativity, nature, and art, rather than the 'incessant ego-need to work to feel purpose' [5]. He lamented that most people will use freed-up time for 'superficial distractions' rather than looking inward [5]. He resurfaced his own Jun-2025 essay on dealing with sudden gains and losses, quoting it in full [6]. The advice is practical and spiritual: take profits, let the win sink in, start an inner practice to handle the temptations of wealth, and diversify into hard assets outside crypto [6]. For losses: stop trading, use a free energy-balancing book, get a job, and save 10% of salary in BTC [6]. In a reflection on visiting both rich and poor countries, he observed that people are lost everywhere and '99.99% not interested in inner development' regardless of their material circumstances [7]. He sees this as the 'brutal truth' that reduces humanity's chance of advancing to a more content state of consciousness [7].
Crypto Trading & Market Cycles
He posted a transparent reflection on his predictions, admitting his call for a 56k BTC bottom was wrong — price went to 58k and he did not deploy there [8]. He also admitted the October timing was off, since 'we are earlier this cycle obviously' [8]. But he argued the 4-year cycle is still alive, noting the top-to-bottom pattern was 267 days (vs 364 historically) and bottom-to-bottom was 1317 days (vs 1430) [8]. His current positions are clear: he is not redeploying into Bitcoin, but holds a large HYPE position since $40 with adds at $78, a heavy SpaceX position at $110, and BNB around $710 [8]. He is keeping BTC bought at $19k last cycle for the long term [8]. His most-discussed post — 6 replies — argued that many alt setups look extremely good, grouping coins by stage: bottoming (eigen, op, tia, sei, ldo), well on the way up (near, arb, inj, link), breaking out after consolidation (ena, eth, sol, bnb, avax), and in price discovery (lit, hype, zec, xmr) [9]. He acknowledged 'most of these coins are garbage' but said the charts show real opportunities [9]. On HYPE specifically, he is holding spot to $100 at least, at which point he will decide how much to sell [10]. He told @FlyWieEinVogel that TAO's whitepaper is 'nothing but fancy words' and called it 'nuclear waste,' though he expects it to do well in a bull market like any alt [9]. He sees a new bull market beginning, with the last doubters about to allocate and Q4 set to be exciting [11]. He urged traders to take profits on the way to January, warning that bullmarkets can have 'intense retraces, especially if they start so early as this one' [11]. He echoed this in a reply to @DonAlt, saying he always allocates a bit when DonAlt makes a call [12]. He is actively building a USD stack from recent trading profits to deploy into SpaceX stock, up ~40% on his initial $110 entry, citing the $100B Louisiana investment and an imminent working Starship as reasons to buy more [13]. He plans to hold it long-term and eventually pass it to his children [13].
Crypto Industry Critique & Call-Outs
He argued the crypto space should care 'ZERO about the clarity act, fomc, etf inflows, crypto-regulation,' saying 'the spine has been ripped out of crypto' [14]. He lamented that the space has abandoned its role as an antidote to the toxic fiat system in favor of Wall Street integration and compliance [14]. He reiterated this in his Spaces recap, writing: 'who cares about the clarity act, this space was not born and meant to confirm to politics or tradfi, we are the anti-dote against it' [1]. He warned that as the bull market returns, 'absolute idiots and clowns' will start screaming online about being kings and gods again [15]. He told followers to block anyone showing off watches, cars, or pet tigers, and to 'stay humble, ignore the noise, lock in on your trading, and take profit on the way up' [15].
Personal Lifestyle: Permaculture, Health & Family
He shared a lighter moment at a garden center where the owner now personally attends to him because employees fight over who gets to serve 'this strange customer that buys any new exciting plant' [16]. He framed it with a philosophical quip: 'Life is a joke, it really is. Consciousness the best show ever. None of it really matters. But to be truly free, it matters greatly' [16]. He shared his article on recovering from fatigue, burn-out, and stress [17]. He also noted that he denominates his BTC stack in dollars but never does so with his gold stack, which he sees as 'the ultimate financial reserve, with the eco-farm as the ultimate back-up asset' [14]. He observed that family serves as social security in poorer countries, creating 'strong tribal family ties and more happiness,' contrasted with the weak and spoiled culture of rich nations [7]. He likes living in both ends of the spectrum [7].
Also this week
Macro, Geopolitics & Traditional Markets (~10%): He argued that bureaucrats and politicians should visit Singapore and Switzerland to learn from their governance, praising Singapore's practice of paying leaders well to attract top talent [18]. He also cited Bukele's turnaround of El Salvador as a model worth studying [18]. He flagged macro risks to the crypto bull case: oil sky-rocketing, AI companies being overvalued, and bonds looking shaky [11]. He is investing counter to the AI overvaluation thesis by backing SpaceX for the long term [13].
