He Who Refreshes His Feed Most Knows Least
The Degen Cliché:
"I need real-time data and 50 Twitter takes before making a move. YOLO the consensus!"
Translation:
“My mind is a leaf blower.”
This trader’s greatest asset is their attention span, which they lend out at 0% interest to anyone posting a chart on X. They confuse data with wisdom, headlines with signals, and activity with insight.
They are the patron saint of the Noise Bottleneck, where the ratio of nonsense to knowledge approaches infinity.
The Inverse Degen Trader’s Wisdom: Clarity Comes from Subtraction
Wise traders subtract, not add.
They understand that wisdom sits at the top of the DIKW pyramid:
Data → Information → Knowledge → Wisdom.
Most people get stuck somewhere around “Information” and never see daylight again.
Clarity comes when you turn off alerts, mute half the world, and return your brain to factory settings.
Lesson:
Filter aggressively. If it won’t matter in five years, don’t give it more than five minutes.
