🔥 How to Stay in the Game When Everyone Else Burns Out The goal isn’t to win fast. The goal is to keep playing. Markets shift. Narratives fade. Trends turn overnight. The ones who last are those who adapt, not those who rush. ➡️ The Mistake Most Traders Make Most people chase quick success. They want money, status, attention. That mindset burns years and capital. High leverage, emotional trades, endless chasing. It feels like progress but it’s just noise. Some catch a big wave once and think they’ve mastered it. Then the music stops. The same pattern repeats. Those who can’t rotate or adapt end up stuck, waiting for a new run that never comes. 📝 Simple Rules That Keep You Alive Everyone knows these, but few actually follow them. ➡️ Never go all in. There will always be another setup. Keep reserves. ➡️ Trade your own ideas. Following others makes you late. Build your own plan. ➡️ Don’t try to be the genius. The market punishes arrogance. Being profitable matters more than being right. ➡️ Chase new trends smartly. Early bets bring reward, but small size keeps you safe. ➡️ Don’t marry a coin. Flipping is winning when working with lowcaps. Buy early, sell higher, move on. ➡️ Help your circle. If people around you grow, you grow too. ➡️ Protect your wallet. One careless click can erase months of progress. ➡️ Keep clean intentions. Call it karma or luck, bad energy always circles back. 📣 The Real Edge The strongest traders aren’t the boldest. They’re the ones who last. They stay calm, adapt fast, and keep learning while others blow up.

Stay patient. Stay sharp. Stay human. That’s how you stay in the game.

Some rebalance daily like Wintermute, others, such as Jump Crypto, hold long-term positions alongside their trading activity.

Don’t think newer traders can comprehend the 2017 ICO cycle. Imagine sending dozens of $ETH or $BTC into a blind address and receiving the sale token back with 0 KYC, 0 lockup, and 0 vesting. And some of those ICOs still did 10000x. We used to believe in something… 🐴 Join the White Horse

📊 Wintermute’s Portfolio Shift: What the Market Maker Is Actually Buying On November 8, market maker Wintermute sharply increased positions across Binance, Coinbase, Circle and Kraken. The total portfolio is about $550 million, and several tokens grew by 60–120% in just one day. 📝 The coins with the biggest inflows: ➡️Fartcoin $9.5M ➡️ARC $3.55M ➡️Jelly Jelly $1.58M ➡️ZRO $1.46M ➡️PNUT $1.36M ➡️BNB $1M ➡️PEPE $961K ➡️PUMP $958K ➡️TRADOOR $836K ➡️W $723K ➡️GRIFFAIN $467K ➡️SNX $568K ➡️RAY $336K ➡️IMX $507K ➡️WLD $309K ➡️PYTH $245K ➡️ONDO $220K ➡️INJ $220K ➡️ACT $171K ➡️AIZBT $157K ➡️GALA $143K ➡️SAHARA $139K ➡️PENDLE $129K At the same time, Wintermute almost completely left Aster, Filecoin and Fetch. The largest positions remain in SOL ($110M), BTC ($35M), ETH ($10M), as well as LINK, ARB, TRX, COMP, MET and TRUMP. These holdings are being slowly reduced, not dumped. ❕ It doesn’t automatically mean they are bullish on the new names. They might just be increasing liquidity or rebalancing books. Still, the list clearly shows what is active in their system and what is being drained. And one question remains.

Where are all those “serious” future tech giants like Linea, Stark, Chia, Plasma?

Nowhere to be found. Wintermute and Jump Crypto are not trying to look smart. They just make money. And judging by the numbers, they are very good at it. 🐴 Join the White Horse

⭕️ Bottom or just a pause before the next storm? The market just went through two brutal weeks. A massive Balancer hack, the longest US government shutdown in history, full uncertainty everywhere. Pressure hit every coin across the board. 🐋 Big wallets started locking in profits while Bitcoin was still holding above 100k. The drop below that level didn’t last long, and BTC managed to defend its 50-week average. Now there’s a bit of optimism, but no one knows if it’s a real recovery or just a breather. ➡️ Two weeks ago everyone celebrated ATH and talked about Uptober and Moonvember ➡️ On October 10, the market got hit by one of the largest liquidation waves ever ➡️ November started with the worst sentiment since FTX collapsed 🗣️ Behind the scenes, there’s more than just macro chaos. Rumors about Wintermute’s possible bankruptcy keep spreading. They’re said to be preparing legal action against Binance while dumping parts of their portfolio. Mid-sized funds got dragged down too, selling everything to survive. That’s why alts are bleeding harder than usual. 📈 Bitcoin just tested strong support. Ethereum is still lost, while Solana took the spotlight. October 10 showed which network stayed reliable under pressure and it wasn’t ETH. For now the market is holding up, and short-term optimism is back. Add Trump’s talk about stimulus checks, the end of the shutdown, and a temporary pause in trade wars, and the picture doesn’t look hopeless.

Whether this is a bottom or just calm before another hit - we’ll find out soon.
