1/ Most people should be investing long term and not trading. Just DCA and #HODL.

But how?

It's actually easy to DCA in #Crypto, here is a guide.

-- PICK YOUR CRYPTOS --
Pick five, I would day $BTC, $ETH, $LUNA, $SOL and $MATIC or a dinasour like $LTC or $ADA
2/ -- SPLIT --
You need to decide on a split. In my HODL portfolio, I've started focussing on #Bitcoin as my biggest hold. My split is 30% $BTC, 20% $ETH, 20% $LUNA, 20% $SOL and 10% $LTC.

Everyone has their own opinion on what to HODL and what not to and splits. You do you.
3/-- AMOUNT --
Calculate an amount of fiat per month you can contribute to buying crypto. This should be money you can afford to lose. Once you know the amount you can move on to the next step ๐Ÿ‘‡
4/ -- SCHEDULE --
Next, you pick a schedule, either weekly, fortnightly or monthly. This is how often you'll buy each of the cryptos on your list. Weekly is best but it is also time-consuming. Some exchanges will allow you to set up automatic recurring buys though, which helps!
5/ -- IGNORE CHARTS --
Just ignore charts. It doesn't matter what crypto is doing you just buy as per your schedule and hold. The whole idea of DCAing is you buy no matter what. As long as you believe crypto will go up long term then it makes sense to DCA.
6/ -- PORTFOLIO ---
IMO most people will do better DCAing than trading. Alternatively, you could do what I do and separate your portfolios between a HODL portfolio and a trading portfolio. 40% of my capital is HODL, 50% trading, 10% high risk.
This might be the solution for you if you want the best of both worlds. Either way, now you know how to DCA!
One thing I would add is I do trade with my HODL portfolio, even though I should just HODL. That's just me though.

I make mistakes.
I make bad calls.
I get greedy.
I panic.
I'm not perfect, who is?

#Crypto isn't easy. Here are my biggest mistakes and the lessons I learned. ๐Ÿงต below.
1/ -- Getting Caught In The Hype --
I first got into #GameFi and #PlayToEarn in early 2021 and I did very well when the sector mooned.

But I got so wrapped up in the hype that even when the sector started to become oversaturated I kept on apeing into gamefi projects.
It seems obvious now but greed and hype can really blind you to reality.

I realised that I was good at spotting emerging trends but bad at detecting when those trends are ending.

To fix this I began scaling out more aggressively as a sector becomes overhyped and oversaturated.

1/ Finding a 10x project in this bearish #crypto market isn't easy if you don't know what to look for.

Here are a few tips on EXACTLY what I look for when researching a project.

Like and retweet if you find this useful!
2/ -- TEAM --
I always look for a good team with experience and connections. I basically turn into a stalker and find out everything I can about the team. Who are they working with? Who have they worked with in the past? Do they have connections with big exchanges?
3/ -- TEAM cont --
This info is found on google, Twitter, LinkedIn, articles, press releases and sometimes by asking people. A team with exchange connections or who has worked with exchanges can get fast-tracked to exchange listing. Also, a team with experience is always ๐Ÿ‘Œ

1/ I see so many people losing their #crypto or #nft bags by connecting to dodgy sites.

There's an easy way to prevent this.

The first and best way is to never connect to dodgy sites ๐Ÿคฃ but I want to be able to do that sometimes to mint #nfts etc. Here's how I handle this
2/ -- DUMMY WALLET --
Create a dummy MM wallet and keep little in it. Use this wallet as your top-level MM wallet and import your main wallet as a secondary. Your main wallet should only ever be used to connect to legit sites you 100% trust. Your dummy is for everything else.
3/ -- DUMMY WALLET cont --
I keep enough crypto in my dummy wallet for gas fees. If I want to buy an NFT/crypto from a dodgy site I'll transfer crypto from my main wallet to my dummy wallet using "transfer between accounts" on MM and use the dummy wallet for the transaction.

1/ Everyone wants to find the next 10x #crypto gem

But how do you find them?

This year as $BTC was dumping I shared $GMT (20x), $WBOND (10x) and took others I didn't share. How did I find these?

Here's how I do it ๐Ÿ˜˜
2/ -- LAUNCHPADS --
You do not need to use the actual #launchpad, although you can. Monitor which projects good launchpads are launching, research them and buy post-launch (wait for a dip). My fav launchpads are @TheDaoMaker, #Binance, @FantomMaker and @terraformer
3/ -- HACKATHONS & GRANTS --
Many blockchains hold #hackathons or give grants to projects launching in their ecosystem. This is how I find gems VERY early on. I also find talented DApp devs this way and follow them so I can get on their next project early!

1/ There is still money to be made in #crypto. Invest in new low cap projects on new or trending ecosystems.

For example, a new #DeFi project launches on $METIS or Terra, it has a few 100k market cap. Unless it's absolute trash it will do a 5x or more.
2/ Take partial profit at 100% to secure your initial investment and from there you are good.

I won't shill any specific projects because people on here are annoying and will say I'm pumping and dumping. Also, my sharing might cause a pump n dump naturally.
3/ Just DYOR and find some cool projects. It's not that hard.

Go in with a long term mindset too. Take some profit but if you're in when it's under 1 mill market cap and it's good, it could ๐Ÿš€ so keep some in.

As usual, this is not financial advice. DYOR, don't be a dumbass.

1/ I'm not bullish on $BTC medium term but I am bullish short term... obviously after a big green candle.

46k resistance still in the way, then 52k. So I'm taking PARTIAL profit on recent buys at resistance AS USUAL. Still mostly in stable and accumulating.
2/ Last two times I tweeted about taking partial profit on alts was Feb 7 and Jan 12. Not magic, just taking profit when BTC is at resistance.

Hopefully, alts give us a nice enough push by the time BTC approaches 46k resistance.
3/ I cocked up $LUNA, I hold some but should have bought more at 45 ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

$METIS, $UOS, $PYR, $RFOX, $WILD and most other things I bought are up nicely but I didn't buy enough. Most of my big buys were Jan 25th dip, not the last one.

The 10x on $WBOND is still the standout gain.
