Fartcoin launched in late October 2024 at around $0.04 per coin. Less than three months later, it peaked at about $2, and now it’s sitting at roughly $0.75. Fartcoin is the perfect reflection of crypto investors right now. It’s what crypto is all about...
Well, not quite. Because if you look at Bitcoin, it’s no longer "criminals’ money" like the mass media tried to convince us for so many years. Instead, it has evolved into an alternative store of value—like gold—soon to be used by governments to bypass tariffs and US sanctions.
Blockchain technology was designed to break the chains of oligarchy, but we got it all wrong. Instead of focusing on what actually matters—like @starkerz is doing with the Hive Debit Card—we’re more drawn to gambling with crypto rather than building with it.
And that says a lot about us—the masses—the ones consuming tons of social media every day, eating additive-filled food, and selling our time for money. It’s crazy watching people work like ants just to buy the latest iPhone or a slightly newer car.
Every year, Apple drops a new iPhone with barely any improvements over the last model, but with a much higher price tag—making that shiny phone you bought 12 months ago worth half what you paid for it. If animals could talk, I bet they’d be roasting us for this one...
Looking at crypto from a less commercial angle, it’s probably one of the easiest ways to "buy time with money." If you time your halving cycles right, or if you managed to accumulate a decent chunk of Bitcoin over the years—or if you’re earning some form of crypto, like being on Hive—you could eventually reach a point where you no longer need to work.
That’s when you enter the phase of "buying time with money"—sort of. Because time keeps passing regardless, and you can’t buy back wasted years. But if you live below your means, crypto has the potential to generate enough income over time so you no longer have to work a traditional job.
But the gambler’s mentality in crypto doesn’t value that. Instead, it glorifies all these clowns who made millions during a bull market—only to blow it all on luxury crap right before the next bear market hits.
Making a million dollars from crypto isn’t impossible—it just takes patience and an unshakable will to HODL. I haven’t hit that milestone yet, but at least I know what I need to do to get there. And if you happen to make it this bull run, just imagine the passive income you could generate on Hive with a chunk of that profit...
Imagine the capital you’d have to play with in the next bull run if you don’t waste most of your profits on shiny toys that depreciate over time and bring zero real value to your life.
Time is precious, and to me, crypto is an insane leverage tool that, if used properly, can buy you more time away from the legacy system. Will I become a millionaire this cycle? I give myself slim-to-none chances because my investments aren’t that big, but if I do, I’m definitely putting a good chunk of those profits into HBD savings and HP.
Buying time matters way more to me than sports cars, designer clothes, or any of that other bullshit.
We probably have 8–10 months left in this bull market, and the real fun for altcoins hasn’t even started yet. If you look at past cycles, altcoin season is way shorter than Bitcoin’s.
Whoever has the balls to hold for a few months once altseason kicks in—and has an exit plan—will set themselves up for financial freedom and an insane advantage in the next bear market.
A bear market is only stressful when you refuse to take profits during the euphoria phase of a bull run. Trust me—I learned that the hard way...
Thanks for your attention,

Hi bro
Yesterday I watched a video about animals, where it was explained that neither lions, nor bears, nor even sharks like human flesh (they attack very rarely based on instincts)
So they would not roast us, but fuck us - this is their main instinct)))
(my best joke today)
!BEER
Good one. I read about bears and sharks a while back as well that they are actually killing us as a defense measure. Or out of revenge, somehow..
Yes, usually out of fear - but the bear still loves human flesh: if he kills a person in the forest, he pins him down with a snag or small trees and leaves - he comes back in a couple of weeks, when the meat has gone bad and then it is already a delicacy for him. (This is an incident that happened to a friend of mine)
Damn Google - it translates everything incorrectly - Google Translate is complete crap - that's why no one reads my posts )))

For Apple this means wasting money. When you buy a new phone with a bit higher specifications every year or even buy one phone and its price drops by half, imagine investing this money. This depends on the mind and strategic thinking. Therefore, there are whales and fish.
Whales are so smart...
I agree 💯%
