Toshi (TOSHI)

Wrote this quickly on my phone, but I want to dive a bit deeper because this is the strongest advice I give to builders. Yesterday someone asked me if they should delay their launch till market conditions are better. No. Build when it's slow, reap the rewards in a good market.

Sadly, X has seemingly made a mistake in removing our gold badge for @toshi which means in tandem I lost my blue tick. We expect to have all that back in the coming days. Why is "the bear" the best time for people that want to make meaningful change (to their own lives)?

When everyone is in a (light) state of mania, nobody has time. Everyone is stressed and trying to make the most out of their great situation, or trying to figure out how to make their situation better overnight. Builders are swamped, they have stacked days every day.

In calm waters, they have time. This means that you can get in touch with people a lot easier than when markets are hot. Build your name, build your reputation now. Build your network in a time where people will speak with you.

For me personally, 2022 and early 2023 were the times where I made the difference. In 2021 I felt like I was chasing chasing chasing, but in the time after I realized I needed to build a fort, a castle, a strong foundation, which I did.

In 2024 and after there weren't many projects on this market that I couldn't have made significant impact on in a very short timeframe, and was able to do in all the cases where I did my advisory work.

One you thing you need to remember, a lot of people leave their post after the bull, so don't bank on people remaining in their position. Keep innovating, keep reinventing yourself. If you're building a legitimate project, this is the time to build

This is also one of the reasons why $TOSHI is so strong. We came up in pain. Our OG holders were willing to sit through horror, they're not phased by the current market. Build a group of strong believers in your mission and you will win.
