Why 2027 will be Crypto's Best Year w/ Arthur0x

Arthur Cheong discusses his crypto journey from "trenching" in the SNX discord in the deep 2018-19 bear market, running his fund up to 9 figs in 2020-21, drawing down 90%, to where he is now. Arthur's story is one of resilience and grit, and resembles how anyone can make it in crypto as long as you work hard and believe in yourself. We discuss traits that make up a great trader, lessons from hard times, and how a retail investor can "make it" this cycle.

Taiki has never run YouTube ads on his channel because he believes in creating quality content, not monetizing your eyeballs via ads. On top of not running any YouTube ads, Taiki has never participated in a paid promotion, a channel sponsorship, or even a CEX ref-link. PREMIUM RESEARCH HFAResearch offers a Premium subscription.
