Welcome to Digital Whale Club future sovereign! The future looks extremely right and we are gearing up for another huge crypto rally. Unless you have been living under a rock, the ETF approval was not a “sell the news” event and resulted in financial institutions with trillions of dollars having massive inflows into the space. This is only the beginning.
We are writing this post at BTC sits at $50,000 and is the only cryptocurrency with an ETF. I think shortly we see an ETH ETF and a LINK ETF. Either way, the games have not started until we have crossed all-time highs.
If this is your first or second time in a bull market, here are some rules to live by this time around so you leave 2025 with way more than you started with.
Why Trust Us?
At this point, we have been in two (going on three) bull markets within the world of crypto and two bear markets, totaling to about 7 years in the space (2017 – 2024). In that time, we have learned more than you could imagine, seen the good, bad, and ugly sides of the market, and truly have witnessed an asset class being born.
Now, there will be people out there who have been before us and people who have extensive knowledge about aspects we may not, and that is fine.
At the end of the day, we have been successful in our own right and plan to continue to apply what we have learned to set ourselves up for the future that we envision. I find it extremely cringe being an influencer in this space that acts as if that were deemed by God to help you “make it”. They all end up being fakes and screwing people over and further feed their gambling addictions.
Here at Digital Whale Club, we will be on the cutting edge of what is happening and come to our own conclusions but will never offer advice on what you should do.
Investing for Long-Term Success
My thesis as an investor is that I want to buy good assets that I can have positions in for long or medium periods. For me that means having assets that can at least have a 1 to 10-year time horizon.
What I have found is that when I have approved investments with this level of discipline the chances of me making rash decisions goes down and the likelihood of me making money increases. Is this always true? No. Nothing is ever perfect.
If you are looking for a trader mindset (short-term plays to get rich quick) this is not your place. We suggest you find another blog to read that can give you what you are looking for.
I am in no rush to get rich, I want to guarantee my future results by enlonging the period in which I actually see the investment decisions I make today pay off. Usually, I follow larger trends and place calculated bets during down periods to realize profits in the periods when markets turn around.
But if you are stumbling across this, chances are we are no longer in those down periods, this i where you need a ruleset in place to navigate the crazy waters that can stir up in the midst of a bull market.
5 Rules to Live By in a Bull Market
Develop a Trusted Network
When I was a kid I used ot always hear this statement that “Your network is your net worth” and it holds very true in the world of crypto. I cannot stress the importance of having a trusted network of people who are also in the trench with you. In the age of information, where new material is hitting the ether at light speeds it is impossible to everywhere. Impossible. If someone figures that out, ping me.
I love consumer products and have an eye for finding things that people like in pretty early stages (from a user standpoint). This was really built when I started my investing journey back in college. In the world of crypto though, there are not very many applications that have caught the attention of the masses yet so I have had to dig into the weeds on my more technical side and rely on other people who are better at pointing those things out to me.

Validate, Don’t Blindly Trust
EVen when in a group you trust, you need to validate people’s thesis before blindly trusting. Sometimes speed is everything in the space so you may have to put money on the line before doing your own due diligence. But do not think that due diligence should be overlooked just because you put money on the table, you and the other people participating could be wrong.
BowTied Night Owl is an absolute killer in the space. If you are looking to go from zero to 1 you should invest in the Defi Education Course.
Peace of Mind > Extra Bucks
Greed is real. I have never experienced anything like what I did in 2021. I genuinely look back at that time as the biggest lesson on money and wealth that I have ever gone through. Waking up being up 20,000% on one NFT to lose $35,000 the next week all in the name of “more gains” was a gut punch I was not expecting.
Your peace of mind matters. Take risk off the table and don’t be a complete degenerate. When money starts pouring in and everyone is “making it” you need to learn to control your emotions and shut the FOMO recpetoooorrs off.
Chasing Everything is a Losing Game
You will not catch everything. Again, I am more of the type of investor who makes a few bets in places I see opportunity in and will wait for that thesis to play out. The only thing I am taking short-term advantage of in this space is airdrop farming. Be careful chasing every new shiny object because you may be the sucker that’s late to the party when you thought you were early. That is how you become a bag holder.
Have the discipline to make concentrated, well-thought-out bets that align with your skills, knowledge, and the general narrative that is playing out.
Build Your Voice and Think on Your Own Feet
We live in a world that is constantly flooded with information. We, as a society, are overloaded on a number of fronts with just the sheer amount of volume out there. At times it is hard to determine signal versus noise but fellow Sovereign, this. is where we separate ourselves from the pack. The faster you can build your own mental models and come up with your own view on the world (based on logic, facts, and trends) the more you will be able to make out of the market.
This takes time to build. Some of you may not have that time and that is where we look to be a resource to help.
Rabbit Holes: Navigate X [Formerly Twitter] Like an Expert
Everything important happens on Twitter first but who you follow ultimately matters. Going down rabbit holes is a good thing but some rabbit holes are better than others, just ask the XRP and Cardano communities how they are doing. When a Bull Market starts to happen, hype and attention seem to be the main drivers of token price appreciation, not fundamentals. I choose not to ignore the fundamental aspects of any coin but you have to understand that emotions will guide most of the coins (at least from the ones consumers start to buy).
This market is nothing like we have seen before. Institutions are here and they will not hesitate to dump on you. Here are some accounts I personally trust most and believe that they are a good place to start if you are fresh in the game of crypto this cycle:
Clearly Set Goals
At the end of the day, we still have time before the party starts. Now is the time for you to set clear-cut goals for yourself and what you want to accomplish in the space of crypto in the next couple of years. Depending on your appetite for risk this is always going to be different from person to person.
Managing Risk [Don’t Drink The Kool-Aid]
Please, learn how to manage your risk profile and do not drink the proverbial Kool-aid. People will say and do outlandish things in the coming months. It is your job to secure your future and keep a level head while everyone is drunk on euphoria.
This is the greatest time to be alive anon, take advantage of it. The Age of Exponentiality is upon us. When we all meet in person for the first Digital Whale Club gathering we will look back at these moments as the great turning point.
