HOW TO MAKE SURE YOU GET PAID THIS CYCLE

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Despite record highs in stablecoins, payments, and institutional onchain adoption by firms like JPMorgan, BlackRock, Mastercard, and Shopify, most token holders aren't capturing the resulting profits. Value is accruing to application-layer companies rather than public tokens, signaling the end of low-float, high-FDV launches and CEX-listing arbitrage. Going forward, sustainable wealth generation in crypto will mirror other industries: thesis-driven investing in BTC/ETH or building revenue-driven companies rather than “spray-and-pray” token bets.
