Don’t think newer traders can comprehend the 2017 ICO cycle. Imagine sending dozens of $ETH or $BTC into a blind address and receiving the sale token back with 0 KYC, 0 lockup, and 0 vesting. And some of those ICOs still did 10000x. We used to believe in something… 🐴Join the White Horse

📊 Wintermute’s Portfolio Shift: What the Market Maker Is Actually Buying On November 8, market maker Wintermute sharply increased positions across Binance, Coinbase, Circle and Kraken. The total portfolio is about $550 million, and several tokens grew by 60–120% in just one day. 📝 The coins with the biggest inflows: ➡️Fartcoin $9.5M ➡️ARC $3.55M ➡️Jelly Jelly $1.58M ➡️ZRO $1.46M ➡️PNUT $1.36M ➡️BNB $1M ➡️PEPE $961K ➡️PUMP $958K ➡️TRADOOR $836K ➡️W $723K ➡️GRIFFAIN $467K ➡️SNX $568K ➡️RAY $336K ➡️IMX $507K ➡️WLD $309K ➡️PYTH $245K ➡️ONDO $220K ➡️INJ $220K ➡️ACT $171K ➡️AIZBT $157K ➡️GALA $143K ➡️SAHARA $139K ➡️PENDLE $129K At the same time, Wintermute almost completely left Aster, Filecoin and Fetch. The largest positions remain in SOL ($110M), BTC ($35M), ETH ($10M), as well as LINK, ARB, TRX, COMP, MET and TRUMP. These holdings are being slowly reduced, not dumped. ❕ It doesn’t automatically mean they are bullish on the new names. They might just be increasing liquidity or rebalancing books. Still, the list clearly shows what is active in their system and what is being drained. And one question remains. Where are all those “serious” future tech giants like Linea, Stark, Chia, Plasma? Nowhere to be found. Wintermute and Jump Crypto are not trying to look smart. They just make money. And judging by the numbers, they are very good at it. 🐴Join the White Horse

⭕️Bottom or just a pause before the next storm? The market just went through two brutal weeks. A massive Balancer hack, the longest US government shutdown in history, full uncertainty everywhere. Pressure hit every coin across the board. 🐋 Big wallets started locking in profits while Bitcoin was still holding above 100k. The drop below that level didn’t last long, and BTC managed to defend its 50-week average. Now there’s a bit of optimism, but no one knows if it’s a real recovery or just a breather. ➡️ Two weeks ago everyone celebrated ATH and talked about Uptober and Moonvember ➡️ On October 10, the market got hit by one of the largest liquidation waves ever ➡️ November started with the worst sentiment since FTX collapsed 🗣️ Behind the scenes, there’s more than just macro chaos. Rumors about Wintermute’s possible bankruptcy keep spreading. They’re said to be preparing legal action against Binance while dumping parts of their portfolio. Mid-sized funds got dragged down too, selling everything to survive. That’s why alts are bleeding harder than usual. 📈 Bitcoin just tested strong support. Ethereum is still lost, while Solana took the spotlight. October 10 showed which network stayed reliable under pressure and it wasn’t ETH. For now the market is holding up, and short-term optimism is back. Add Trump’s talk about stimulus checks, the end of the shutdown, and a temporary pause in trade wars, and the picture doesn’t look hopeless. Whether this is a bottom or just calm before another hit - we’ll find out soon. 🐴Join the White Horse

Life is not a race. Most of your worries are the result of believing it is. Don’t have this thing by that age, you think you’re behind. Not on track to hit this random metric within that arbitrary span of time, you’re somehow losing. You try to seek external confirmation for whether you’re doing well or not, but the map doesn’t exist. It never did. Find peace in that. Stop comparing and focus on taking it day by day. Experience more, learn more, give more. Just stay in motion and everything will work out. 🐴Join the White Horse

📈 We’re not at the top yet Every market top ends in euphoria, not fear. If people are still nervous, it’s not the peak. ➡️ Tops happen when everyone’s sure the market can’t fall ➡️ Fear shows up before the real mania ➡️ Just look at the gold chart - that’s what euphoria actually looks like Until we see that kind of madness, this cycle’s not done. 🐴Join the White Horse

📉 The 4-Year Cycle Is a Myth Crypto doesn’t follow a fixed halving rhythm — it follows liquidity and the broader business cycle. ➡️ The ISM PMI, a key measure of economic strength, has stayed under pressure for almost three years, showing weak growth ➡️ Tight financial conditions, high rates, a strong dollar, and expensive oil keep liquidity trapped ➡️ Without fresh liquidity, risk assets like crypto can’t build sustained momentum The pattern is clear: bull markets return only when money does. 🐴Powered by White Horse
