 I don’t know what’s going to happen with #Bitcoin. 
Nor did I know when I became curious about the technology ten years ago.
Nor did I during the Blocksize Wars. 
Nor during the ‘18-‘19 winter. Nor now. 

Stay humble. 
Stack (a responsible allocation of) Sats. 
Learn privacy tools, and use them. 
Diversify elsewhere. (Broad-base, low-fee, tax-advantaged.)
Don’t make any bet that, upon losing, could blow up your portfolio. 
Be patient and try not to worry. 
Ignore the noise. 
Row your own boat. 

Do this, and you’re already exponentially better off than most.  

Control fixed expenses in your lifestyle. 
Create multiple income streams, if you can. 
Find a spouse who loves you and shares your values.
Get comfortable spending time alone, quietly, without distraction. 

Beyond this, it’s not up to you. Truly. The rest is up to chance.

May you:
Be happy.
Be healthy. 
Be lucky.   
 Control what you can control, and have faith in the rest.
