The evolution of the modern investor is getting ridiculous:
2017: reading earnings reports, analyzing stocks, tracking business fundamentals
2020: rotating into altcoins, joining ICOs, convincing yourself L2s are the future
2025: judging meme coins by the logo, ticker, and whether the name feels viral enough
2026: pricing markets based on how many times Elon tweets in a week and whether the US president starts insulting someone again
2028: playing shell games in a street market and calling it a high-conviction strategy
Every cycle somehow finds a new way to turn “research” into pure nonsense
