Have you ever thought that money is not actually a tangible thing? Its value comes from everyone’s belief. The fastest way to get rich has never been just working hard; it’s about defining a new thing—like a certain crypto asset—that the whole network believes will appreciate, then positioning yourself early to earn the confidence dividend.

Relying solely on trading time for money? That’s called passive beating. Those who truly take off must learn to leverage three types of leverage: borrowing others’ money to invest, amplifying influence through the internet, and using code to achieve automatic growth. Many fear leverage, but the real risk isn’t in the tools—it’s in your inability to use them properly.

Looking at market arbitrage, that’s the core logic. Information gaps, cognitive gaps, capital gaps, risk gaps—there are opportunities everywhere. Experts don’t make one-off trades; they seek systematic opportunities for repeated harvesting—across markets, cycles, and exchanges—just to keep capturing those with insufficient awareness.

Don’t overlook one point: you are your most valuable asset. In crypto and startup circles, personal branding can be valued, financed, and directly monetized. You need to operate yourself like a company—daily thinking about how to boost your reputation and credibility.

There’s also a counterintuitive point—don’t fear volatility; stability is the real danger. Big opportunities only come with big fluctuations. Areas that lack consensus and others dare not touch are exactly where hunters hunt. Use capital that you can afford to lose to place a big bet; calm waters don’t produce true skills.

Essentially, this world is close to a zero-sum game. How deep your understanding is determines whether you are a hunter or prey. Let go of naivety early; carefully analyze from the perspectives of human nature and interests, so you’re less likely to get “harvested.”

One last point: instead of obsessing over perfection, just get started. In fast-changing fields like crypto and trading, speed is life and death. Fire first, adjust while firing, and use action to crush all doubts.
