I've had quite the rollercoaster in crypto since I started getting into the industry in 2020. Yolo'd Shiba Inu early only to put all my ETH and BTC profits into Voyager. Grinded my way back, but missed the biggest airdrop opportunity in Hyperliquid as I was focused on farming Blast. Ended up trying out leverage on Hyperliquid in December 2024 only to see 5 figure profits turn into a larger 5 figure loss. Have been overweight ETH through it all. Safe to say I've taken a few on the chin but I'm still here and hoping the tide turns in my direction. Thank you for all you guys do.

hyperliquid was a great win. $300k trade volume while maintaining $1k profit PnL and got rewarded 800 HLP. This farming was much better than EIGEN, BLAST and MANTLE combined. Wished I subcribed DeFI way earlier and it took me a while to comprehend your writing style. Thanks again!

Beyond grateful for the insights. And perhaps more importantly as someone with a non-finance background, thank you for "teaching a man to fish". True learning is in the arena, and the training DeFi Ed provided has been invaluable.

Quite a ride. Ha, I remember making up all losses riding BTC from $16k to $20k. Then buying USDC on the cheap when it depegged. Good times. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed being a part of this peculiar circus with you as guides.

Huge milestone, one of my favorite posts yet seeing the high level arc of crypto develop and your calls and analysis along the way. I started reading in early 2024 more seriously after doing your course to ramp up on crypto, it has been instrumental in developing a better less emotional investing strategy after getting burned by diamond hands-ing penny stocks in 2022. Not at life changing returns yet but I feel much more in control of my risk decisions, less blind faith, more eyes open. Thank you!

Congrats on 4 years and thank you for writing.

Started reading in late 2023 and as a non-finance / non-CS person, just trad science, this publication has been invaluable to me from "teaching me to fish" to coverage on projects like hyperliquid and proper LLMs (Venice) I can say I have learned a lot.

You guys have been absolute class acts. Congrats on the success. The success of the stack and your readers (who read for leveling up vs entertainment) has been top notch.
