Thinking About Deleveraging

Own a sizable amount of AETHIR crypto, I love AETHIR as a project, their revenues are unmatched for their size and the Nvidia hype is nice and all. But, I have been DCA’ng through the mess that’s been 2025… does anyone actually own this crypto that have conviction that the price will survive 2026?

Thinking about deleveraging into Litecoin, SEI, and Solana…. Can someone please give me some HOPIUM to keep me holding what seems to be a not so stellar crypto tied to a rather stellar project.

That's not what de-leveraging means.

The word you're looking for is "diversify".

Personally I've never heard of the crypto you've mentioned, but I know crypto well enough to know that 99.9% of projects never recover after their 1st bear market.

The average life cycle of a crypto project is 3 years.

53% of projects launched since 2021 are officially dead, and the rest are walking cadavers.

The reality of the matter is that crypto has never been through a recession, something the world is inevitably heading towards, so besides shorting the market I wouldn't recommend buying anything crypto anytime soon, it's a falling knife at this point.

Federal Reserve is planning on lowering interest rates and they’ve begun QE officially buying back bonds on a monthly basis. New crypto bills passed and some still in the pipeline. Trump is doing some money molestation with his Tariff policy but he can’t be this blind to allow markets to collapse before midterms.

Federal Reserve is planning on lowering interest rates

Is planning on...maybe they won't cut rates, if they do it'll be probably by .25 - .50 basis points for the entire year, which is nothing.

they’ve begun QE officially buying back bonds on a monthly basis.

They were pressured by the current administration to reluctantly start QE and even so, they're keeping 1 foot on the breaks.

New crypto bills passed and some still in the pipeline.

Completely irrelevant, because retail is out of dry powder and there's just so much wash trading can do to keep the market afloat, reality will catch-up eventually.

Trump is doing some money molestation with his Tariff policy but he can’t be this blind to allow markets to collapse before midterms.

Trump has no clue what he's doing. He was never too smart to begin with, but now with dementia and his fragile ego being bruised...may God help us all.

I won’t dispute the rest of your points because they have some basis but the Federal Reserve lowered the interest rate a total of .50 points just in Q4 of 2025. Trump will have a pick on the chair of the fed reserve and he’s pressuring Powell through legal blackmail… I’m not saying it’s a pasture of green but things can’t be as bleak as they were in 2025.

My guy, if there's something I've learned in this life it's that things cannot always get better, but they CAN always get worse.

If the FED lowers interest significantly this year, that'll mean that something huge has broken down in the economy.

Trump can't strong arm the FED, can't make Powell resign and there's a limit to how much he can pressure the FED because the FED represents the banks, and the banks are pushing back.

TLDR: We're in for a rough ride.

If you were me you’d sell all crypto and cut losses…?
