DD-driven crypto research · No shilling
Degen upside.
Fund-grade risk.
The forums taught a generation to swing for the 10x. Funds know how to survive the −80%. We do both: three model portfolios built on a barbell, with a vault that holds through the crash, a venture sleeve that hunts the next narrative and a capped moonshot bucket for the YOLO plays. Every move posted, every reason explained.

Free to start. One email when it matters. No pump groups, ever.
Loss porn, explained
Accounts rarely blow up on bad picks.
They blow up on bad sizing.
01
YOLO on one narrative
Metaverse in 2021, DeFi summer before that. One story, one bag, one bad quarter, and the whole account ends up as a screenshot in a loss porn thread.
02
Sized by hopium
The coin you love most quietly becomes your biggest position. Conviction is not a risk model, and the market does not care how hard you believe.
03
Bought someone else's bags
Paid shills, undisclosed bags, "not financial advice" followed by financial advice. If you cannot see who profits from the call, you are the exit liquidity.
The barbell
Three sleeves. One rulebook.
Venture funds never bet the fund on one rocket. They take many shots, size each one so it can go to zero, and let the few winners pay for everything. Same playbook, crypto edition.
Core Vault · 60–70%
The diamond-hands part 💎🙌
Bitcoin and Ether, held spot, rebalanced on a calendar. Its only job: still be standing after the next −70%.
Venture Sleeve · 20–30%
A small fund inside your portfolio
8 to 12 positions across DeFi, real-world assets, infrastructure, AI and gaming. Most will disappoint. A few can pay for the whole sleeve.
Moonshot Casino · max 5%
YOLO, on a budget 🚀
Early tokens and wild narratives, sized so each one can go to zero without wrecking you. A fixed budget, a written thesis and a planned exit.
DD, not vibes
From noise to a position in four steps.
01 · SCAN
Do the DD
On-chain activity, fees, token unlocks and liquidity. Public sources, linked so you can check them.
02 · FILTER
Kill most ideas
No real usage, toxic tokenomics or an unlock wall next month? Out, before it reaches you.
03 · SIZE
Decide the bet
Which sleeve, how big, where we are wrong. The exit is written before the entry.
04 · POST
Post the position
Entry, size and reason in three lines, by email and in the members area. Exits get posted too, losers included.
Not another pump group
What you get, and what you don't.
