The Ethereum Merge is one of the biggest narratives of 2022.

But the question is: How do you best capture its upside?

🧡: Here are 5 $ETH plays to get exposure to the merge. πŸ‘‡
1. $ETH

The most literal and obvious way to get exposure to the merge narrative.

The merge is the first of a series of 5 major upgrades (read more about the roadmap below):
$ETH tokens will be required to stake in order to validate the network, given the shift from POW to POS.

In theory, this means that more tokens are locked (reducing supply), and well as increasing demand due to the higher APR achievable through staking (~7.5%).
Another 2 key factors come in to play when quantifying the impact of the merge:

β€’ A reduction in issuance (ETH becomes a deflationary asset).

β€’ A 99% decline in energy consumptions: Making $ETH more palatable from an institutional investment perspective.

Before we delve into the history of ICOs, what even is an ICO?

ICO = Initial Coin Offering

In short, crypto projects come up with an idea and a whitepaper, and sell tokens (often for stables/majors) to raise funding from investors.

Think: crypto's version of TradFi IPOs. Image

F*ck it. I'm putting my neck on the line here.

I'm 91.5% certain that the $BTC bottom is in.

And if it is, A LOT of people are about to be caught offside.

🧡: Full analysis.πŸ‘‡ Image
I'll be breaking down the 4 triggers indicating a bottom is in, along with the caveats to be aware of.

I think that the past few days have fundamentally shifted the
1. Market reaction to news

Over the past few days, we've had an influx of bad news.

Specifically, Tether FUD, China "banning" crypto, $MSTR FUD, and Bank of Japan/yen carry trade unwind concerns.

Despite all this bad news, price rallied.

There's a saying in markets.

"The reaction to news is more important than the news itself".

This tells you everything you need to know.

Nano Banana Pro just became the king of image generation.

This unlocks crypto research capabilities most people don't know exist.

I've been testing them all week - and I have to share them with you.

🧡: 5 creative ways to use Google's Nano Banana in crypto.πŸ‘‡ Image
If you're unfamiliar with Nano Banana, this is Google's AI image generation/editing model.

Recently, they released their "Pro" version, and it's scary good.

This is the first time I genuinely haven't been able to tell the difference between real and AI-generated images. Image
You may be asking:

"How can an AI image generation model possibly help with my crypto research?"

That's exactly what I'm about to show you, and I actually think you'll be quite impressed.

Stick around until the end, where I share 10 FREE Nano Banana crypto prompts.πŸ‘‡

ChatGPT is cooked.

Gemini 3 just became the biggest edge in crypto research - here’s how I’m abusing it.

I saved 20+ hours this week alone using the new features.

🧡: Level up your crypto research with Gemini 3 (+ free alpha).πŸ‘‡ Image
In this thread, I break down:

β€’ Using Gemini 3 as an AI agent assistant
β€’ Vibe Coding within Gemini
β€’ Deep research/Deep Think mode
β€’ Additional alpha to help you master Gemini 3

Learning AI in slow markets is one of the best uses of your time.

Let's dive in.πŸ‘‡
One of my favorite features inside the Gemini 3 package is the new 'Agent Mode' tool, which is integrated directly into Gemini.

Simply select "Agent Mode" from the tool dropdown menu inside the Gemini app to deploy it.

This feels like a personal research VA - it's perfect. Image

Crypto privacy may be the most important crypto narrative of the next 5 years.

$ZEC is leading the way, up 10x this year, but this isn't just a short-term trend - it's the future of the industry.

🧡: The full privacy thesis (+ exact projects I'm watching).πŸ‘‡
In this thread, I'll cover:

β€’ An overview of the privacy sector
β€’ The exact problems it solves
β€’ Why institutions & retail need privacy solutions
β€’ Projects I'm watching that execute privacy solutions in crypto

It's an alpha-packed thread, so be sure to save it.
There is one roadblock halting crypto from achieving true mass adoption (especially for institutions):

Too much transparency.

Transparency is why we trust balances and state, but it’s also the reason some retail users, companies, institutions, and even DAOs won't migrate on-chain.

Privacy fixes this - let me explain.

The million-dollar question:

Is the crypto bull run over?

Everyone's asking this right now, and I spent the past week really diving deep to find the answer.

🧡: Is the bull run over? A comprehensive deep dive (+ what to do now).πŸ‘‡
By the time you're done reading this thread, you'll know exactly where we stand in the cycle.

This is a longer thread, but I wanted to put together the most comprehensive guide on this topic.
I've broken this thread into three segments:

1. The bear case (6 factors)
2. The bull case (7 factors)
3. What to do now + my thoughts

Let's start by examining the bear case, which currently has six main levers at play.
