That $BTC Bart Simpson price action is back.

Here are my best and my worst trades of 2025. 1. Hype I bought a ton of $HYPE at the end of 2024 - most of it around $5 and some more under $10. Even though that happened in 2024, I was basically holding most of it throughout 2025. I sold roughly half of it at $50, which

5. $ETH I stopped counting how often I opened long positions on Ethereum. However, I'm pretty sure I lost way more money on it than I won. $ETH had a lot of positive momentum on its side (stablecoins, DeFi), but it never really broke $5K.

7. XPL / MON / STABLE / ... These were the easiest shorts this year - high FDV when they listed, as they went live on all major exchanges at the same time. All of them also had a spot listing. Way too many tokens were allocated to the team and early investors. Obviously, I closed

4. $BTC Option Play I opened a straddle with a put at a strike price of $105K and a call at a strike of $110K. I was basically sure the call would print money - boy, was I wrong. The call is basically worthless now, and the put more or less rescues the position.

2. $BTC I opened a good 7-figure perp long at around $88K and held on to it until the top at $125K. Unfortunately, I never sold there because I was sure it was about to go higher. 🙈 I finally closed the position at around $105K. Even though it made some good money, it still

3. $BTC 2 I never touched my BTC spot bag. Not sure if it was a wise decision or not - I guess time will tell.

6. Alts I basically shorted a ton of alts this year, and it actually made good money - except for $ZEC and $M, where I shorted way too early. In fact, I could have made a lot more money by holding on to the shorts longer.

8. Gold For the first time in my life, I had a big position in gold. The biggest lesson here was that you can actually hold a position where you don't have to be afraid to open your phone when someone says the market is dumping. Low volatility can be peaceful. However, YOLO. 😂

9. Learnings It seems like every year has these 1--2 trades where you're almost 100% certain that you'll be right. I think it's important to learn to wait for these moments and then commit. Let's see what the next year brings.

What a shitcoin. $RAIN has a fully diluted valuation of $8.9 billion and isn't listed on any major exchanges. The daily trading volume is just $20 million. God help you if you think there's any long-term value here.

🇺🇸 Nearly 10% of Americans are now millionaires -- on the rise. 🇩🇪 In Germany, it's about 3.3%. These are the side effects of sustained economic growth and citizens taking personal responsibility for retirement planning, thereby benefiting from stock market returns.

The German Environmental Aid receives several million euros annually in (2023: 2.7M €) from the federal government -- as a so-called NGO. And what does it get in return? Regular lawsuits against the federal government and individual states. Congratulations.🤝

Also if BSW, SPD, and Greens stay below 5% -- what will AfD, CDU, and Left do in the state parliament? Everyone is staring at each other and no one is talking to anyone? That could get really interesting in the next few years. 😂

Does $XXI even know what its business is? Because all I'm hearing is a word salad of buzzwords and vague declarations about what they aren't. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if their roadmap just says 'vibes.'

So Ross Ulbricht came out of prison in January this year, and since then, we've seen several Silk Road wallets move $BTC. These wallets hadn't been touched in over 10 years. In fact, most of them were considered dust wallets back in the day - but that 'dust' is now worth $47M.😀

That's a tough one for Polymarket users. If you had your money on AI, Sam Altman, Jensen Huang, or even Elon Musk, you'll most likely end up with zero - even though they're on the TIME cover - because someone changed the 'Other' result to 'Architects of AI,' which is what's

Markets love this. When the Fed buys Treasuries, bond prices rise and yields fall --- which means investors go hunting for returns elsewhere. And where do they find higher upside? Risk assets like $BTC. Lower yields → cheaper liquidity → stronger bid for crypto and tech.

Besides that, most of the images are already in. Even in the Hubble images, you can barely see it - it's basically just a single pixel on the screen. So there's no way we'll be able to prove anything.

First of all, it's very unlikely - even Avi Loeb only gave it a 40% chance. And even if it did contain life, there's no way we could prove it. 3I ATLAS will make its closest approach to Earth on December 19th this year - at a distance of 1.8 AU (1 AU is the distance from the
