What if I told you that by answering four simple questions, you could consistently surface the best trades in the entire crypto market?
That’s exactly what I’ve been doing for the past six months.
While crypto has been getting crushed, my largest position is up +150% in the last six weeks.
Over that time, I’ve read the developer docs and design notes for over 1,000 crypto investments.
Here’s my honest breakdown after all that reading:
- 90% of cryptos are going to zero
- 9% are interesting, but flawed
- 1% are exceptional
Finding that 1% doesn’t require complicated models or insider access. I just ask four very basic questions:
- What does this technology actually do?
- Are people genuinely using it?
- Does the token benefit from that usage?
- Am I buying it at a good price?
Most crypto projects fail one of these immediately.
Plenty have decent technology, but no real users.
Others have users, but the cryptocurrency itself captures none of the value.
That’s why 90% go to zero.
The 9% get attention, but never quite work.
The 1% pass all four tests.
Here’s a real example.
Hyperliquid $HYPE is one of the best exchanges I’ve ever used. It solves the core DeFi trade-off: speed versus decentralization.
✅ The technology works.
On usage, it’s absurdly efficient, over $1B in annualized revenue with just 11 employees.
✅ Real adoption.
Even more important: 90% of that revenue is used to buy back the token, creating a constant, structural bid.
✅ The token is designed to win.
Finally, while the rest of crypto has been selling off, $HYPE is breaking to new highs.
✅ Strong price action.
This is what the 1% looks like.
Crypto is being repriced in real time.
The market is done funding junk. What’s left is a narrow, violent separation between the 1% that will define the next decade, and the 99% that will quietly die.
In that, there is a tremendous opportunity.
