Chasing the Ball .:. Late Night Blogging

Even if you don't like soccer, you probably know that the FIFA World Cup is happening right now, hosted in the United States, Canada, and Mexico... I will not go too much into politics, marketing tricks, and very expensive tickets, but rather peek into my personal view and thoughts I had during one specific game... England was playing against Croatia, and I was following the match on Spanish national television...

IMO, that was the first match (that I watched) where both teams were playing on a similar level, and anything could pass on the field... Specifically, the first half was equalized... While Spanish TV commentators try to be objective, or unbiased, they were changing their opinion about teams whenever one would score a goal... 😃 It was funny to see that as teams took turns scoring goals... So, you could hear that the England team is superior, playing great football, and then after just a few minutes, when Croatia would score a goal, they would miraculously become the "better" team... 😃 It reminded me a lot about our "crypto experts," which would FOMO and push one narative today, and tomorrow, it would become irrelevant as some other shiny object will take the focus...

Comparing this match with previous matches, it was so obvious why we saw so many goals from both sides... Both teams would take a lead and actively build up their attacks, trying to score goals... And the second thing was "chasing the ball"... Most goals are scored not by chasing the ball, but trying to figure out where the ball WILL BE and not where it is at the moment...

Another great analogy with our crypto world... Whenever you hear about some crypto or token buzzing at X, or any other platform, you are already late... You are chasing the ball, which you usually will not catch! The real challenge, and the real opportunities, lie in observing the game and watching players who are "delivering" the ball to the scorer! In a way, the saying "eyes on the ball" doesn't make sense a lot, as the ball is faster than us!

The ball is usually delivered in the space, and the player who reaches it first is in "the control", or attacker scoring, or defender clearing out the dangerous situation...

Keep your eyes open on teams that are building... If the product has value but it doesn't get recognized in the over-fomoed-AI world, it doesn't mean it's bad... The time will come for good products to come to the surface... Be patient, make your move, but don't chase the ball... Try to figure out where it will land...

Thank you for your time.
