$DEGEN

I've noticed a lot of frustration and complaints lately about the current dip in the price of $DEGEN. It's easy to get discouraged when the charts are red, but it's important to remember the bigger picture.

Consider This: Many of the major tokens we know today, like SHIBA, DOGE, and PEPE, experienced significant dips and corrections in their early days. Take a look at their charts from the first five months—they faced similar struggles but look at where they are now!

Patience Pays Off: The journey of these tokens teaches us a valuable lesson: success in the crypto world often requires patience and perseverance. Instead of focusing on the short-term fluctuations, let's keep our eyes on the long-term potential.

Stay Hopeful: To those who are new or feeling disheartened, remember that every dip is an opportunity. Hold strong, stay informed, and believe in the potential of your investments. The best is yet to come!

Thanks @wake for the charts. 👇

1/3 Thanks for HODLing! While I can't talk prices directly, Degen has a strong war chest. Progress may seem slow sometimes, but we're inching toward amazing new releases and ideas. We've got time on our side and big plans ahead.

3/3 We're fully vested—literally. Our bags are big, and we're HODLing with you all. We're onboarding top market makers to handle larger deals OTC. Degening is a wild ride with ups and downs, but those who brave the winter will come out stronger. Stay strong, and believe in our future! Not financial advice.

2/3 We're keeping expenses low and ensuring funds for years of building. No quick fixes with influencers or short-term stunts here. A year from now, we’ll still be building strong, with funds to keep going. We're here for the long game, not just momentary pumps.

I'll be with Degen until the end Captain 🫡🫡🫡

DEGEN is a force that can make or break the BASE itself.

Nothing like a war chest in the hands of a genius 🔥

Fam, the biggest issues are the comms and lack of support (which is still comms in a way). 

Things to improve:
No more Weird random actions like the 1k allo for PB - that went away same way it came… Felt like an accident. No more or do
it right.

No stable api results / dune values, unsolved for months now.

Can't really get much worse than it's been though... or can you exceed expectations next season?
