happy new year friends!

may 2026 be a blessing to all

hope you’ll achieve your holistic goals in life

wishing everyone happiness, health, and wealth

cheers!

It feels like a time to be long and strong but also the long positioning seems to be consensus

I'm bullish anyway. Altcoins could squeeze +30% and still be down -80%, imo we have room to go up without taking a lot of risk

about to be done with my vacations, its been amazing touching grass the past ~2 months

feeling refreshed and ready to kickstart 2026

exciting things incoming, more grind to do, and much more to grow

let's rock

first things first,
i've been using elfa for quick summaries on the market or tokens without needing to scroll X. this was especially useful when i was farming lighter in 2025. during my recent vacation, when i wanted to quickly find out why a token was pumping, i could also get what i wanted to read in seconds. it has bought me a lot of time cumulatively.

now you're able to trade directly on elfa as well:

i've been wanting to share elfa for awhile now, and i've finally managed to get an affiliate link that brings extra benefits for CM

elfa uses a credit system whereby asking a question on Expert mode costs ~10 credits. as a free user, you'll be ennoscriptd to 150 credits/month.

using my affiliate link will grant you a lifetime extra 100 credits/month!

i honestly think that its a super handy tool to have to improve workflow whether trading perps or onchain. and i do think elfa has the potential to be something big in the future, so best to start exploring! it never hurts to explore projects early and who knows you might get a nice reward in the future!

a common observation in most trading groups that i'm in (even myself sometimes):

"why is xxx pumping"

traders unable to figure out why certain tokens are going up or down which results in them frantically asking their gcs for information

if that doesn't work, they go on X to search the ticker/ca to figure out what's going on (and we know how terrible X search function is)

elfa really shines in situations like these and it costs nothing to try it out

just sign up, ask some questions to get a feel, and see if you like it

importantly, don't treat it as gospel, but as a quick summary tool or confluence
