⌟ How to Optimize Your Timeline ⌞ Lucky to be here on X, where you can connect with talented individuals from around the globe—let’s strive to absorb valuable information and avoid being drained by negativity. Recently, I’ve noticed many fellow travelers being overwhelmed by negative emotions—a dangerous trap. We’re here to grow, to earn through honest, non-scam, non-gambling means, and perhaps the only viable path is to earn through small, consistent gains. But if your environment is filled with negativity, you’ll inevitably be affected. Stay strong! For example, I’ve recently been flooded with algorithm-driven entertainment videos. I recommend using the “Pause Topic Recommendations” feature to clean up your timeline and focus on meaningful content. ✅ Steps: Tap “For You” in the top-left → Pause irrelevant topics → e.g., Videos → Confirm Trust me, this simple step will help you grow. May you now embrace each day with purpose and fulfillment.

I’m adjusting to a new rhythm: this weekend, I’m doing nothing but spending all my time with my family and kids. Forget the market and boring FUD—I firmly believe in the future of our protocol, which we’ve stood by for two years, and let the facts silence the trolls. After spending so long in crypto, we’ve lost touch with the pace of ordinary life, but we must slow down! Next week, I’m embracing new joy—Azeroth.

This week's small account scored 1,123 points, exceeding expectations; strongly bullish on @variational_io https://t.co/FxO8oRLfRN

Before I entered the crypto space, I was obsessed with gaming—single-player titles like Operation Flashpoint, Civilization, Hearts of Iron, and The Elder Scrolls. I’d sit down after dinner at 6 p.m. and not get up until 2 a.m. In college, I was completely addicted to World of Warcraft. After class, I’d rush back to my dorm, open my computer, and my muscles would automatically click the WoW icon. I’d play with classmates until the dorm lights went out, then wake up at 6 a.m. on weekends to complete quests and hunt rare pets. Exhausted, I’d check the time—only 10 a.m.—and think, “What a joyful morning! Life is so long.” When I first started working, I had no ambition. I got paid just to get by, and my greatest joy was playing games with friends after work. Back then, I’d already achieved the European-American work-life balance—before it even became a trend in China. Now that I’m older, especially since having a child, I’ve lost all interest in games. Even at my old job, I’d sneak in some slack time—but since going full-time into crypto, all I care about is making money. Watching a movie feels like a waste of time and gives me guilt. Money, money, money—my dream is to earn more, and it’s never enough. As a kid, my dream was simple: one cold Coke a day would make me happy. ✅ We’ve finally become the very people we hated when we were young. Fuck growing up.

Checked my points this morning—disappointing. My main account dropped from 19th to 30th; my alt account, Kuku, climbed steadily from 69th to 56th—don’t you dare overtake me... This week, I only traded $50M and earned 199 points—last week, I traded $250M and got just 465 points! The new strategy is working brilliantly. I’m sticking with it this week—let’s go all in. I’ll fight until the very last second—never give up! https://t.co/UNq6uqEtl0

I bought this hard drive in 2010, and three years later I got an ATI graphics card to mine Bitcoin at home—but gave up after less than a week. I remember many calculators on forums posting detailed analyses of electricity costs plus equipment depreciation, claiming mining was a losing proposition back then, when BTC was $95 per coin. Damn, only now do I realize those smart guys were using a covert strategy—discouraging everyone else from mining while they quietly piled in! I’ll head to the computer market later to repair the hard drive and recover my family photos. If I actually find any of my old mined coins, I won’t need to work hard anymore 😄

Every year at year-end, I take stock of which airdrops I’m still waiting for—and more importantly, what major projects I have lined up for next year. In the past, I was incredibly driven. My strategy used to be: start with a public chain, build a cross-chain bridge, then move to ecosystem DEXs, trade on NFT marketplaces, jump into SOL staking, and simultaneously engage in perpetual trading and prediction markets. I’d juggle big and small projects, always busy every day. 🔸 This year, it’s already November, and honestly, I don’t have a single major project lined up for next year. I have no idea what to all-in on. This feeling started after the AI boom. Crypto funding news has dwindled, and there are no new narratives emerging—everyone’s just recycling old ideas, like Blizzard. The so-called “hot” new projects these days are mostly forks or migrations to new chains—no real innovation, no new users. In DCs, it’s always the same familiar faces repeating the same patterns. 🔹 Another interesting trend: many English-speaking KOLs are posting in Chinese to promote projects in the Chinese-speaking region, complete with referral links. I suspect there are no more new retail investors left in the West—Asia’s high population growth means there are still plenty of “trainees” ready to take the baton 🥲 ✅ These two observations are what I’ve noticed—I’m writing them down as a personal reminder to all my brothers: don’t get stuck in old patterns. Think critically! Back then, so many people path-dependent on Berachain and all-in on Monad—only to get burned. Keep thinking. Keep pushing forward. Keep grinding, Airdrop hunters!

Just checked the payment page for the latest Roadster on Tesla's official website—besides paying directly with a credit card, it also supports car loans from four financial institutions. However, the USDC and BTC cryptocurrency payments we’ve been hoping for haven’t been implemented yet. @elonmusk, can you support cryptocurrency payments for cars? 🫡 https://t.co/lKEiODMPgI

I saw trading volume drop and thought I could make a quick profit, but today it’s another $3.8B+ Took a break this week—won’t be competing with the masters anymore; these whale groups are insane. @edward_yu_var The boss hinted:美股 launching tonight—the king has arrived. @Vegahao Teacher, isn’t a $30B valuation for true infrastructure like Variational reasonable?🤪 https://t.co/bo8XdPOYYw

⌟ Mainland China U Card Avoidance Guide ⌝ Yesterday, while shopping at the mall, I continued testing how convenient it is to use the U card for purchases. Since Alipay and WeChat charge a 2% foreign exchange fee, I thought using a physical card would help me avoid the monopoly financial giants' scythe. Turns out, I was charged a total of 5.5% in additional fees—really frustrating. Here’s how to avoid this trap: ✅ When swiping your card, the cashier will ask whether you want to pay in USD or CNY—always choose the local currency! The same applies in other countries. This way, you’ll only pay 2% FX fee + 0.9% crypto-to-fiat conversion fee—just 2.9% total, which is way cheaper than 5.5%! 🔹 Always choose the local currency—sharing this with everyone. Wishing you all more profits, more spending, and daily happiness.
