If you're under 5 figures in crypto, this isn't a bug - it's actually an advantage if you play your cards right.

Your first $10k is the most important - everything gets slightly easier after that.

You can tap into opportunities that bigger players aren't utilising:

• Farm airdrops on quality products (i.e. HyperEVM, new protocols)
• Trade on chain (much easier to make quick 2-3xs when you're not constrained by low liquidity)
• Take part in incentive campaigns (Kaito, Cookie etc.) - of course this requires building a small social media presence to farm points, but it isn't hard to get a few thousand followers
• Get a job in crypto (either for a media company, or for a project. i.e. mod, BD, depends on your skillset)

Ultimately, pick stuff you enjoy doing, but you have lots of options
