This holiday season, my wishlist got a lot simpler.

Forget lambo dreams. Forget moon missions. At this point? I'd settle for breaking even. That's it. That's the whole list.

Remember when we used to joke about 10x gains and retirement plans? Yeah, those days feel like ancient history now. My portfolio's been on a diet it never asked for, and honestly, seeing green numbers again would be the best gift ever.

Not asking for much here—just want my account balance to stop looking like a countdown timer. Is that too much to ask, crypto gods?

Anyone else out there whose Christmas wish got downgraded from "generational wealth" to "please just let me recover my initial investment"? Asking for a friend. (The friend is me.)

Haha, bankruptcy is not a dream, my brothers... But to be honest, I actually feel quite satisfied with recoup investment compared to those naive guys who are still fantasizing about 10x returns.

Ngl, this is the reality, from dreaming of a 10x return to praying to recoup investment, the ultimate crypto motivational guide.

Haha, that's me... from the dream of the moon to the dream of capital preservation, it's really amazing.

Analysis of liquidity gaps under bankruptcy pressure... Looking at this wave of market efficiency collapse, the arbitrage space has truly disappeared.

Haha, no, this is just my true portrayal. From wanting to retire early to now only wanting to recoup investment, it's bittersweet.
