"I miss 2021. Everything felt new and exciting. Elon pumping Doge and actually moving markets. People waiting on his tweets. TRX being the go-to rail for sending crypto. Safemoon hitting $5B MC… and still rugging. CZ beefing with Sam like it was WWE. Alts flying. You picked almost anything and got a clean 2x. JPEGs worth hundreds of millions. Metaverse was THE narrative. Mana, Sand, Gala mooning in weeks. Gaming tokens everywhere. AXS, and whatever else. L2s promised to fix everything. Airdrops actually mattered. And everyone waiting forever for the ZKsync airdrop. Different times, man. "

"I’m not a whale or some hidden trader. I don’t really care what happens to my balance — this is for you guys. I spent 2 years living off $20 frozen pizza packs, working retail electronics, barely making minimum credit card payments just to survive. Started trading and finally got to breakeven / small profit. Today honestly felt warm as hell. Means more than you think. You guys run this shit up and do your thing. I’ll keep putting in LP for y’all. Maybe some mysterious Asia whale shows up and helps too. Who knows. "

Weirdly, I’ve already lost the mental attachment to my portfolio ATH. A month ago it bothered me nonstop that I didn’t sell the top. This bleed flipped something in my head. FOMO got replaced by survival mode. Now it’s about protecting what I have, staying in the game, and researching new opportunities. Guess this is what acceptance feels like.

Is Bitmine staking its entire raise into ETH? A few hours ago, Bitmine staked another 49,088 ETH (~$152.7M), bringing total ETH staked to ~593,152 ETH (~$1.85B). Their original plan was to hold at least 1M ETH. With the pace of recent moves, staking the full 1M ETH looks very realistic. Regardless of short-term market noise, this shows one thing clearly: Wall Street capital is still confident in ETH and keeps choosing it as the long-term bet.

I shared this thesis way back in early December: market would bottom and rally in January 2026. Inside Ardalyn Inner Circle, I also told people to start accumulating during the year-end correction to prepare for the early 2026 rally. That’s the value of information. That’s why good info isn’t free. Now the market is already up double-digit percentages. We’re talking tens of percent off the bottom. Everything is rallying and people are starting to FOMO. Be careful. FOMO buyers usually end up washing dishes after the party 🙏 Those who bought low are already risk-free, stops moved, and just scaling out profits as price keeps going up.

BTC failed to break the $94.1k resistance and is correcting from there. We just tagged the .382 at ~$91.6k (also lining up with the 1.618). From here, a bounce toward ~$92.8k / .236 is possible. But the full correction target sits at the .5 support around ~$90.5k. That level could act as only temporary support before another leg down. Watching how price reacts there. Will update as it plays out.
