0:13:38Quackheads Poll and Bitcoin Toll Drama
Dave announced Widow as the winner of the Wallchain Games poll and welcomed her as the new Quackhead. The group discussed Iran and Oman demanding Bitcoin payments as tolls for ships through the Strait of Hormuz. Kool said this shows Bitcoin has made it and is positive overall despite potential negatives, while NatNat agreed more visibility and transactions strengthen Bitcoin.
0:35:53NatNat Breaks Down BTC Levels
NatNat said Bitcoin must break and close above 72.5k for higher prices, with liquidity pockets up to 80k, but sees downside to 70k, then the 60s, and 58k if rejected. Her long-term thesis remains 35-25k and would be invalidated only by sustained closes above 100k. NatNat stressed every trader needs clear invalidation levels to avoid trading bias only.

Dave asked how people in the space are making money now. Widow collab manager said she earns as a collab manager and charges up to 250 dollars for KOL posts or 100 for retweets. Moni noted projects still pay for content deals, though quieter, and mentioned upcoming TGEs. Agent Naeem cited Messari data showing most of 41 TGEs last year underperformed, with only six profitable.
0:54:54Bread Shares AI Trading Agent Insights
Bread described building trading bots and an MLB prediction agent that adapts to changing markets and called three of four games correctly. Widow collab manager said the AI trading bot space is saturated and not innovative. NatNat and Bread noted agents develop internal biases after early wins, leading to poor trades, and most traders who use them do so only on separate accounts with small funds.
