About

Hey This is Samet

I help you stay up to date on DeFi, and to become a better investor. I focus on objective analysis rather than shilling you the next 100x coin.

I’m also known for my popular newsletter. It’s 100% free and I sent it out each week to 24,000+ subscribers. Click here to learn more and sign up.

You can find me on Social media on Twitter.

How My Writing Can Help You:

You want to keep up with the latest DeFi news, but you don’t have 12 hrs a day to go through Discord or Twitter.

You’re interested in principles such as Profit Taking strategies, portfolio allocation, and cognitive biases – not just which coins will go up 100x.

You want to understand the risks involved with each investment.

You want unbiased information. I love ETH but I’m not an ETH maxi.

You want to learn from someone that will share useful information and NOT dump coins on you.

What to Expect from Me

Every day, 50+ DeFi researchers are popping up on Twitter.

So, why should you listen to me?

1
We go the extra mile. Everything I share is backed by the highest quality research by my team and me – we’re not rewriting YouTube videos. We go straight to the sources. I have the leverage to talk to protocol founders themselves to clarify certain things.

2
I’m in the trenches of investing and trading. There are quite a few people who just write about DeFi, but don’t have skin in the game. (Cough Journals who don’t own any Crypto.) I’m a Crypto investor first, and a writer second.

3
Integrity is my highest value. I’ve seen countless individuals make money by deceiving their audience. I’m playing a long-term game.

4
Multi-Disciplinary Thinking. “If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.” Far too many people have a tunnel vision approach. They’re into technical analysis so they only view opportunities from that lens. I believe in being multi-disciplinary. Success requires looking at the fundamentals, analyzing the financial metrics, thinking about the game theory, and understanding your psychology.

5
Simplify. I see too many people doing “Gigabrain Mental Masturbation” where they go so deep in the weeds that no one understands what the hell they’re talking about. I’m all about understanding it, and deciphering it into a way that’s easy for you to understand.

Hi, I’m Samet!

2013: Bought my first Bitcoins, and lost it all in Mt.Gox exploit. Lesson: not your keys not your coins.

2017: I built a portfolio to 7-figures, but I lost 90% of it. I left the space for several years. Lesson: Take profits.

2020: I discovered DeFi in August 2020. I was hooked. Finally, there are useful products now instead of just white papers.

I spent 12+ hours a day obsessing over DeFi, and pretty much made every mistake in the book. I built a 7-figure portfolio, and kept it this time.

2022: In January, I started writing on Crypto Twitter. I went from 0 to 225,000 followers in less than a year.

2004 – 2020: Before DeFi, I owned several brands in the eCommerce space.

My mission: Life’s getting harder for the average person. I want to help people achieve financial freedom through DeFi.

Outside of DeFi I enjoy weightlifting, boxing, chess, and anime. I’m currently a Digital nomad traveling around Europe and Asia.
