We’ll see

As Andreesen pointed out long ago, β€” Watch for the perma-bulls who finally flip bearish, because this is the ultimate sign that the bottom may finally be in β€œThe bottom did not come in until the demoralization was so comprehensive that the tech crash wasn't…
β€œThe bottom did not come in until the demoralization was so comprehensive … it was just sad and depressing”

Notice how PERFECTLY that post timed the real bottom

To the minute

The moment the strongest perma-bulls finally give up and capitulate to bearish

β€” Is exactly when the markets finally flip bullish

Markets are incredibly good at making you sell the bottoms and buy the tops

Andreessen was right

Influencers betting on a $TRUMP sell-on-news event, on or shortly before the inauguration

Price currently at $70

As said yesterday, In the short-term, sell-on-news / sell within 24h of Binance listing is reasonable

But, we’re just at the START of a major bull run now β€” which complicates everything

Reasonable that sell-before-inauguration is a decent short term move, while in medium term it may well go higher

Hugest gains always come toward the END of the 4-year cycle

Biggest 4th year of the 4-year cycle has officially begun

Don’t think of calling top until we near Nov/Dec 2025

Gains will only keep getting bigger until then

Ofc with many short pullbacks along the way

Another classic VC rule of thumb, β€œ1/3, 1/3, 1/3” i.e. 33% β€” are 100% loss, straight to $0 33% β€” are ~1x, break-even 33% β€” are the bulk of returns Which turns out to be partially right, in that ~66% either return 0 or break-even β€” But off on that last…
Classic early-stage investing rule of thumb:

β€œOne Deal Returns The Fund”

Direct consequence of power-law distribution of returns

Do whatever it takes to be sure you’ll catch that ~1

β€” e.g. not dumping 100% too early, to β€œtake profits” like an absolute moron

Miss that 1 and your portolio is DEAD

Small 3x wins are considered LOSSES in early-stage investing portfolios

= Better for an individual investment to increase odds of achieving that 100x which β€œreturns the portfolio”, even if doing so also increases risk of 100% loss for that investment

β€” rather than to lock in a guaranteed 3x that hasn’t yet hit a qualified exit event, and potentially miss that one 100x that β€œreturns the fund”

You can try to argue against these, but they’re a direct consequence of the of early stage investing math

Corollary,

If 1/3rd of your bets are NOT going to zero β€” then you may not be taking the risks needed to catch the 100x’s need to β€œreturn the portfolio”

Many have repeated these classic rules of thumb over the years,

But ~0% are able to absorb these and their consequences it into their heads

Wondering why tradfi VC has been totally absent this cycle, compared to the last?

Many reasons, but apparently among the top has been that tradfi VC has been restricted from participating

Meanwhile, this cycle has shifted hard from traditional startup investments, which were dominated by VCs in the past cycle,

β€” to memecoin investments, which most VCs just aren’t allowed to touch

= Far less competition, for those few who see the opportunity, and can find a way

Memecoin fund?
