The excerpt is a single-speaker monologue giving crypto investment advice in the current bear market: claims structural shifts toward crypto (including lobbying and bank products), outlines a defensive portfolio strategy, advises risk management tactics (increase buy sizes as prices fall, buy coins suited to bear markets, de-risk and avoid "marrying" tokens), and predicts market momentum returning around January 2027 with the Bitcoin halving in early 2028. The speaker warns against gambling and promotes a disciplined accumulation approach to recoup losses.

So we know that the entire banking system is being replaced by crypto, from 401s to OCC banking charters. I mean, through the board and every structural shift, crypto is pretty much dominating and taking over to the point where they're spending hundreds of millions of dollars to lobby Congress to make it happen. And then all these big banks and these big companies are essentially creating their own crypto products and then, you know, spending money to build them out. And they're all doing this in the exact bear market. Like right now we're experiencing pretty much nothing in price. The market hasn't moved at all. And so I want to talk about briefly what I'm doing specifically to take advantage of this. Now the numbers in my group— I don't have the numbers off the top of my head, but there's something called a relief rally. So essentially what happens is every cycle there's this period of time where the market does come back periodically, and then people start getting super hype mode. Now I believe in crypto long term. I see the structural shifts and the structural demand, right? Not in retail, but real, like genuine structural demand. But I don't think the market will fully and completely come back until we see momentum from the Bitcoin halving event. Now, the Bitcoin halving event is the beginning of 2028, but the momentum should come back January 2027. So I'm not going to be a fool about it. And the Clarity Act is not going to pass anytime soon either. I'm not going to be a fool about it, but I'm going to start accumulating and basically shifting my portfolio to a defensive posture. What people don't understand is if you invested too early and your portfolio is currently down, Don't marry the token. Don't marry the coin. The coins that would have worked in the hype cycle are not going to work in the bear market. You could actually not only recoup your losses but make a profit if you do a couple things. Number one, risk management. You have to keep buying as it goes down. Not that coin, but a coin that could potentially do well in the bear market. For example, if you put $10 into some type of BET It goes down or you lose and you double it, right? You put $20 in. If you make profit on the $20, you make up for the losses of the first investment. So you have to increase your buy size as it goes down. Number 2, you have to make sure you buy coins that work in a bear market. There's bear market coins that work and there's bull market coins that work. They're completely different. Don't just keep putting your money into the bull market coin that you thought was going to work in the bull market, but the bull market never came. The altcoin cycle never came, right? Don't put it into these high-risk coins. You have to shift your entire thesis. A lot of people have conviction in a project and the founder themselves don't even have conviction in that project. You're over here continuing to accumulate a coin that the founders left already, right? You need to find coins that are working the bear market and accumulate it. So increase your buy size, accumulate it, and downsize or de-risk so that you can accumulate more through this cycle. It's going to be like January 2027. Don't be an optimist and lose all your money. You can be an optimist in general, but have a strategy to back it up and become a professional. Seriously guys, stop gambling in this market. Follow this strategy, you can recoup your losses and make more.
