Translation: Don't worry about competition. It will make your industry bigger, which in turn helps you. Embrace it!

Author's Comment: "Don't worry about competition." Brother accidentally spoiled it (FTX was eliminated a year later).

Smolting

Original: observe the daily close as a cum soaked, sleep deprived sponge observes cl approaching in a sneaky - stalky manner after running out of socks.

Translation: Observe the daily close like a semen-soaked, sleep-deprived sponge, sneakily and stealthily watching as it approaches after running out of socks.

Author's Comment: Honestly, I don't know how to interpret this.

CZ

Cobie

Original: Might make some clickbait YouTube content "how I became a billionaire from $200 in just 5 years while average only 3 sober days per week" gonna record it in a seaplane with my butler and my butler's butler.

Translation: Maybe I'll create some clickbait YouTube content "How I Became a Billionaire from $200 in Just 5 Years While Only Averaging 3 Sober Days per Week", and I'll record it in a seaplane with my butler and my butler's butler.

Gainzy

Original:

that was a v rough btc 8% drop tbh

it made me momentarily uncomfy

i think it's fair to say we deserve a bounce to 100k for this mild inconvenience

Translation:

To be honest, BTC dropped 8%, which was quite rough.

It made me momentarily uncomfortable.

I think it's fair to say we deserve a bounce to $100k for this mild inconvenience.

Author's Comment: Later dropped 70% over two years.

ZachXBT

Original:

If there's one thing you learn from me

people on CT can't trade at all. It's just snake oil salesmen larping as traders

They rely on private sales, undisclosed advertisements, insider knowledge, or pumping & dumping alts to make $

When called out they preach "positivity".

Translation:

If you learn one thing from me, it's that nine out of ten people on Crypto Twitter can't trade at all. They're just snake oil salesmen pretending to be traders.

They make money through private sales, undisclosed advertisements, insider knowledge, or pumping and dumping Altcoins.

When called out, they preach "positivity".

Author's Comment: Sage advice that still applies today.

CZ

Kaleo

Original:

IT'S OVER... for the bears.

Clean retest. Plenty of noise around ATH breakout as expected.

I like it. Just keep stacking.

Translation:

It's over... for the bears.

Clean retest. As expected, plenty of noise around the all-time high breakout.

I like it. Just keep stacking.

Author's Comment: Actually, the Bull market ended.

CZ

Udi

Original: STOP SELLING THE COINS YOU POORS

Translation: Poor people, stop selling your coins.

Author's Comment: (Narrator's voice) In fact, they did not stop selling.

CZ

Michael Saylor

Original:"He who works all day has no time to make money." - John D. Rockefeller on #Bitcoin

Translation: "He who works all day has no time to make money." - John D. Rockefeller on BTC

CZ

Easy

Original: January 1st - ETH 6,942. It's programmed.

Translation: January 1st - ETH $6,942. It's programmed.

Author's Comment: Doesn't seem like a predetermined trend. But Easy didn't specify which year's January 1st (maybe the prophecy will still come true?).

CZ

Mayne

Original: Still in a bull market. I'm scoping out places to buy the dip so I can later sell the rip as we blast thru $70k.

Translation: Still in a Bull market. I'm looking for opportunities to buy the dip, so I can sell high later when BTC breaks through $70k.

Author's Comment: Caught the falling knife.

CZ

This post is a reminder from 2021:

The Twitter feed at the market's peak looks crazy. If even the best can't sell at the top, you can't either. Be prepared.
