These two gooners will discuss the importance of selling and why it's important to normalize your crypto gains because crypto really does warp the value of your money.We discuss why crypto is a butthole, and why selling should be something you enjoy.

Today I'm joined by Law to discuss his journey starting from $5k in crypto during the 2022 crypto bear market. He ran up his bankroll doing RFV (risk free value) trades, buying tokens at a discount to the treasury and taking an activist approach to redeem it for profit. Despite his success, Law claims that he rarely takes month-over-month drawdowns and argues why his approach is superior to those who gamble on perps/memecoins.Law provides an interesting take on how there are many ways to profit in crypto, and what it takes to find edge in crypto.
