*earliest investor in fartcoin.

Miss the days where you could simply long fartcoin and make twenty million united states dollars.

Not sure what part of this cycle felt the best — Entering the cycle at the bottom or buying fartcoin at $30k or calling the top of the cycle or making money on alternative assets when everyone else is losing in crypto.

Entering fartcoin at $30k might’ve been luck (+ being in tune, of course). Exiting fartcoin all the way through $2B was discipline.

Happy 1st birthday, Fartcoin.

Exactly 1 year ago today, what was meant to be a side quest gave me some of the greatest trades (% wise) of my career, yet. Turned $2K to >$10M. Considering I run a private fund, this started off as a side quest for me. I never traded memes before. I’ve never been in the ‘trenches’ prior. Only partook in majors, alts (since 2017) and equities (since 2010). Wasn’t a part of any group chat. Didn’t know any insiders. October 13th of last year was the day I opened my first account on solana after reading the conversation between Truth Terminal and Marc Andreessen. Memes never interested me, but what was happening here seemed to have a layer of fundamentals. Entered goat sub-10M. Dug into the rabbit hole, found fartcoin deep in the infinite backrooms, and allocated the maximum I could (considering there was no liquidity whatsoever, sub-30k market cap), knowing it'd be an attention black hole. All the narrative engineering, 1000s of posts, the 3d chess moves, collaborating with literal Al bots — was a first for me — turned a side-quest into a main-quest at the time. Gained 100k followers. Grew the fund to nearly mid-8 figures without raising any outside capital and played the Al meta at peak performance, with several 7-figure realisations. A lesson I learnt here: Experiment — Don’t limit yourself to niches and specific asset classes. It isn't the money that made this the best time of my life. It was playing the game in flow-state. Looking forward to more such periods in my life.

Seeing everything run, it must be sad for anyone holding xpl. Even my dust, tao and snx, are doing multiples.
