Classifying crypto as frontier tech is bullish

the technology has progressed to the point where teams can leverage it seamlessly while focusing on building products that elicit surprise and delight for end users

tech for finance <> frontier tech

New fomo short thesis copypasta
TOGI Verified account @ShaneStoffer Oct 22
For everyone asking, here is my full $mrna dream thesis. all was recorded on the next YT vid but for u twitter folk

The dates could be off but around these days

October 4th: I wanted to speed up my stock video challenge so decided to dip my toes into options, scrolling thru my port everyone was turbo bullish on every stock except one. $MRNA, everyone and their mother could only talk about how over valued it is and how good of a short it was. All I know in stocks is that ppl complain non stop about how they got fucked. It sounds like everyone loses, and if everyone is losing, I should just fade them and it’s a lock?

Oct 5th: I decided to buy some options, far out the money decently far out strike

That night I had a dream that Moderna cured cancer and wicked to $275 in one day, my portfolio was worth $11,000,000

October 6th: they didn’t cure cancer and the stock went down so i decided to load more in

October 8th: everyone on twitter called me the biggest idiot ever, that I should go short, this gave me turbo confidence that the stock had to go up cuz again, most ppl talk like geniuses behind their -80% all time port

At this point I’m in for $250,000 on my initial 50k position

Then I started asking Claude, “what would it take to get $MRNA to $275 in the next two months????”

Claude told me that they had a big catalyst coming some meeting on the 24th reviewing their cancer trials

I figured I’d bet on the side of my dream that they would cure cancer and it would rip

Fast forward 14 days or so and the stock had ripped like 25+% all the way to my initial dreams target and it made me think, everyone knows this meeting is coming, if this news comes in anything other than 10x expectations, it’s fully priced in. The idea was that Monday it would dump regardless of how good their news was. Claude confirmed my idea. I texted my homie Tuesday night the plan to let it ride till Friday then at close flip to full port short

Everything was according to plan until Wednesday close the stock ran up 5% then fell off a cliff last 10 mins. I was working so I couldn’t do anything but I texted my friend that was the top yesterday night.

Last night I had a dream that $mrna ripped +22% today

I thought it was a sign from God that I was wrong about the top being in and that I should trust my original swap end of market on Friday plan

I checked my phone and it was giga down. My port down 200k almost had me fully in a panic, thinking, maybe the sell on the news was so obvious…. That they are selling days before the news

I got too scared that the dump would happen so soon that I’d have no capital left to flip the port short come Friday. So I decided to take the loss and at least have $500k that I can try to catch the sell on the news dump.

Went full port short under the guise that even if today is another 5% green, at least I’ll be in the position I had been seeking for a few days, confidently short going into the 24th

And the rest, is some giga stroke of luck history, the news broke early somehow????

The most likely outcome for all traders would be what I was destined for. Rock solid thesis blown up by some unlucky bs.

Lucky my panic this morning got to my head enough to break my original game plan

In hindsight, this entire saga was beyond obvious

Thanks for playing!

NOT FINANCIAL ADVISE. IM JUST LEARNING AND GAMBLING. BUT ALSO PUT SUM RESPECT ON THE THESIS.

I got full receipts of every concept along the way, to be posted in the next yt vid. (After I full port SPY 0DTE
