Ben Simpson (speaker) describes his altcoin investment strategy through a single case study: the Maple project/token (referred to as “syrup”). He says he bought Maple at $0.06, it rose to $0.63 within three months (a ~10x), and he took profits at $0.43 while retaining a long position and later re-entering. He explains the rapid rise resulted from negative sentiment that depressed price ~80% below fundamentals, argues price and value are distinct, and states he used profits to buy his parents a house. He emphasizes taking profits on the way up and re-buying into projects he still believes in.

This one altcoin did a 10x this bull market. And I'm going to break it down to you and show you in the strategy behind me. So what I've driven here is literally the point. I bought Maple was at $0.06. Three months later it hit $0.63. All right, crazy 10x growth for a big project. And I took profits at 43 cents. I'm still holding a lot. The reason this grew so fast so quickly is because it had a huge negative sentiment that was uncorrelated to the fundamentals of the project. Price and value are two separate things. Price is something someone's willing to pay for a token or an asset. Value is the creates for the world, syrup and maple. The project was literally a fundamentally quality project, but the price had gone down 80% because people didn't understand it and they were selling a lot of it. This is when I bought more and I shared this with our clients. How much? I was buying at the bottom here at 6 cents because I felt that that price and value was two separate things. Literally, people caught onto that and started to really grow in the value because of the narrative in the community. And that is what grew it to 63 cents. I took profits of 43 cents because of the amount of growth I'd made. And this is where most people go wrong. They keep holding, hoping they get to the top. All right. But this is where most people don't sell because they think it's going to go even higher. I think it will go to a dollar. I take profits on the way up. I've recently bought back in, but I've also been able to achieve one of my biggest goals, which is buying my parents a house, which is where I sold these profits. So I achieved my goals. I'm now buying back in and I still have a lot of syrup because I believe this is a great project and that is my Altcoin strategy.
