THE FIGHT BEFORE THE FIGHT 🥊
This was me trying to cut the last 3 pounds at weigh-ins.
At the time, I was already the reigning, defending welterweight champion for one promotion; traveling to another promotion to fight their champion.
My 5th title fight. 🥊
I was sick, dehydrated, and throwing up all night after trying to rehydrate.
I had never missed weight in my career but when you’re trying to drop 18 pounds in a few days, it can absolutely wreck your body and your head. 🤮
I showed up thinking I was on weight…
Turns out my scale was off. 🤦♂️
🆘Emergency mode.
🟦Portable sauna.
🟦Do whatever it takes.
Sometimes the fight starts before you ever step on the scale. 🥊

Tom Lee just went on CNBC and said the quiet part out loud.
“The bottom is in.”
Same people that called this a dead cat bounce last week
will be asking “is it too late?” soon.
Markets love to embarrass late consensus. 👀
So… are you already positioned, or still waiting for confirmation? 👀📈
Most people don’t realize this yet 👀
This isn’t a “buy a ticket and pray” lottery. 🎰
It’s engage → earn balls →
Balls = Entries.
More engagement = more balls.
More balls = better odds.
No hype chasing.
No leverage.
Just showing up early while the table’s still quiet. 🤫
Red candles don’t shake HODLers.
They test conviction.
This is consolidation 📉
not the real bull yet. 📈
Institutionalization broke the 4 year cycle. 🔄
HODL STRONG 💪
🇺🇸 SEC Chair Paul Atkins says now is the "RIGHT" time to open the $12.5 trillion 401k retirement market to crypto.
This isn’t about retail adoption anymore; it’s about mandated capital.
Once retirement frameworks allow exposure, allocation becomes policy driven, not emotional.
That’s a very different kind of demand. 👀 📈
It’s The Friendly Dealer Phase right now. 🎰
When the room’s small, everyone gets more BALLS.🪩🪩🪩
10k followers = Hunger Game odds.
This = VIP table, free drinks. 🍷
Enjoy it while you can 😂
Why This Bitcoin Cycle Feels Different 👀
📈Chart 1 shows Bitcoin’s deviation from its long term trend vs ISM PMI.
Notice how post 2016, BTC tracks economic expansion/contraction almost step for step. When PMI expands, BTC outperforms. When PMI contracts, BTC bleeds vs trend.
📈Chart 2 overlays that relationship with Bitcoin’s declining inflation rate.
As issuance fell from ~25% → <1%, the supply shock lost dominance. At the same time, the PMI correlation strengthened. That’s the regime shift.
📈Chart 3 shows statistical significance.
The BTC-PMI relationship became highly significant before the 2016 halving and has only strengthened since. This wasn’t created by halvings — it emerged independently.
📈Chart 4 compares early vs recent Bitcoin history.
Pre 2018: macro explained ~18% of BTC’s deviations.
Post 2018: macro explains ~51%.
That’s institutionalization in the data.
Conclusion: 👀
Halvings still matter for long term scarcity.
They no longer control cycle timing.
Bitcoin is now a macro asset.
Liquidity, growth, and risk appetite decide bull markets.
Not a 4 year clock.
Right now looks like a transition phase: strong structural demand, but macro hasn’t fully flipped risk on yet.
The next real bull likely needs:
🟦PMI ↑
🟦Liquidity ↑
🟦Financial conditions easing.
Who else believes the traditional 4 year cycle is no longer the major driver of $BTC ?
Institutionalization changes everything.
🌟Gold added $3.7T in market cap in 72 hours.
Bitcoin’s entire market cap is $1.68T.
🌟Gold moved more value in 3 days than Bitcoin is worth in total.
That’s what institutional flows look like.
Let that sink in. 👀
If @trifle had 10k followers already, this would be a Costco parking lot fight.
Right now it’s a private table.
Better odds. Fewer elbows. More BALLS. 👀
Early is underrated.
What does it take to get 10k followers on Farcaster / Base app?
Seems to be the question even myself would like to know!
My guess is:
Time+Signal+Consistency 🤷♂️
So perhaps the question for me is really : How much time? 🕰️
Adult film star Jason Luv just defeated Adam22 (No Jumper Podcast) in a boxing match.
Yes… that Adam22. 🤦♂️
Imagine getting KO’d in under 2 minutes by the dude who openly rails your wife’s back out on camera… while she’s parading around the ring in lingerie holding up signs for the guy who just cucked you on camera.
Adam22 really took ‘turn the other cheek’ to a whole new level. 💀🥊
I need a therapist and a whiteboard.
Is this: 👀
A) clout science
B) emotional terrorism
C) late stage internet
D) 2026 episode of Jerry Stringer
E) All of the above 👆
Not Financial advice: 🤣
1. Engage
2. Earn more BALLS
3. Yank entries
4. Crank probability
5. BIGGER BALLS = Better Odds

Three doors. 🚪 🚪 🚪
Only one compounds freedom.
Most people optimize for comfort.
Some optimize for status.
I optimize for time, sovereignty, and exit velocity. 📈
Bitcoin isn’t just money.
It’s a coordinate change.
In my younger years, I wasted a lot of time kicking in Door #1… chasing chaos, chasing women, chasing anything except discipline.
❔The real question isn’t which door you pick…👀
…it’s how many times you walked through the wrong one before realizing the others were dead ends?
