If you ask me, to win in this space, what does someone need? Based on my experience, I'd say having friends with a common goal and objective is crucial. It fosters collective winnings and helps you stay focused.

there are people out there that may just not be that comfortable disclosing that they are involved with crypto with their friends which is fine because you could meet like minded people through the internet anyway and feel more comfortable sharing your experiences with people who do not know you in real life to protect your anonymity
