▪️ What is PLAN C?
The Plan C is to realize why you are here, what is your goal & to HELP YOU follow it at all times going forward.
Once you do it will remove the stress from your trading/investing in a big way.
Must for beginners, great for PROs.

▪️ Why is it so important?
Cause most of you are just running around trying to chase quick riches, jumping from fear to greed without any plan and that's why you struggle so much
This thread will guide you to set a plan and stick to it. Now let's get to it.
3/28
▪️ Realization
There are 4 types of people in this space:
🔹 In it for the tech - Minority
🔹 In it for the tech & make money at the same time
🔹 Understands the tech, doesn't care, follows the trend, makes money
🔹 Chasing quick riches - Majority
4/28
Whichever category you are in (except for the first minority one - about 2%), you are here are to make money.
However each of us can be looking for a different kind of money and once we explain that, your plan and psychology will start to differ.
5/28
Here is the big thing...
You need to realize why you are here & what do you want to accumulate
You use them to buy your everyday stuff, your neighbor uses it, your country uses it, and generally, it is easier to think in the $ terms.
9/28
If you decide to accumulate $USD / $USDT / $UST / $USDC / $BUSD / $DAI or whichever other #StableCoin I'd call it the more conservative strategy
Below is why 👇
10/28
The positives:
🔹Less risky
🔹Can be less stressful with the right mindset
🔹Do not care about which direction the market takes
🔹Accumulation of the currency you can use in everyday life
🔹Not being involved at all times in the market and taking a rest time
11/28
The negatives:
🔸Exposed to inflation
🔸Won't earn you as much as #HODL
🔸Watching the markets pump without you and being ok with that
🔸Year on year you'll be able to buy less & less crypto (in most cases)
🔸Most likely loosing the #BTC value

How to effectively use it? 💡
If you choose to go for this path your goal is to accumulate fiat money. Duh?
But in practice, it means you do not care at all if the market moves 10% / 100% or 1000% without you.
And it will happen all the time.
13/28
All you care about is that if your portfolio was 10000$ at the beginning of the year, it is more than that at the end of the year.
If you double it to 20000$ you are happy and do not care about the market anymore as it will be here another day/month with yet another move.
14/28
You can take a rest and wait for another opportunity. Stress-free. Portfolio growing in $ terms.
However, you will have to learn the market WILL 100% move without you and you need to be ok with that because you understand there will be other moves in the future.
15/28
Accumulating #Bitcoin / #Ethereum / $LUNA or whatever ecosystem you choose to believe in
I personally try to accumulate as much #BTC as I can because I believe that one day it will flip #gold mcap (apx 600 000$) and decades later will be used to pay for everyday stuff
16/28
Whether that will be true or not doesn't matter.
I have done deep research and do believe in that so that is my plan & I act accordingly
But the same thing could be even said about #Gold / $LUNA or anything & you could be trying to accumulate as much of it as you can
17/28
The positives:
🔹Beating the inflation
🔹Exposed to #crypto / Asset at all times
🔹Do not miss the moves
🔹Full profit potential of the underlying asset
🔹#HODL in most cases outperforms the rest
18/28
The negatives:
🔸Lot of stress #HODLing through the bear market
🔸Your portfolio can go down to -80% in dollar terms
🔸Lots of risk on the table if your idea is wrong/changes
19/28
How to effectively use it? 💡
If you choose to go for this path your goal is to accumulate as much #Bitcoin (Or any other asset)
In practice, it means you do not care at all if the market moves down 50% / 60% or 80% vs $
1) Buying more with fiat money 2) Trading #ALT / $BTC pairs 3) Selling #BTC to buyback lower (can work nicely if correct but if wrong you'll buyback less)
21/28
I'll also use this window to say Im currently trading with @PrimeXBT as u can hold #BTC as collateral & trade against other pairs on both sides

My take on the future cycles & the diminishing significance of halvings
▪️ The end of the 4-year cycle
▪️ Halvings importance declining
▪️ S2F played its role but has come to an end
▪️ Cycles changing
1/14
In the past, cycles were determined & driven a lot by the halvings as it halves the rewards for the miners by 50% every 4 years
In the beginning, the rewards were huge & the halving was very drastic affecting the price a lot but as time goes its importance declines sharply
2/14
As time goes, less & less #BTC is sold on the market by the miners and each halving ensures that the significance of it is declining in absolute numbers.
This leads to the breakdown of the common myth that #Bitcoin is just gonna continue its 4-year cycles for eternity.
