    So I spent the past week watching a bunch of videos from EllioTrader Crypto (https://www.youtube.com/c/FUDTV/videos). But after a while, or even if you scan the headlines, you see its the same stuff over and over again. He's big on NFT and well, anything crypto. Videos are far too long in my opinion, but hey, that's what gets the most revenue dollars. He stands at 427k subs.

    Then I ran across Alex Becker's channel (https://www.youtube.com/c/AlexBeckersChannel/videos), and he has 815k subs. He got me really thinking about the gaming side. But then as you scan the video titles, you see he literally called a plunge in BTC just as it was shooting higher.

    Its safe to say, for every one channel that I ran across, there are probably at least 100 more just like it. These guys put out a video every day, with sensational titles, and always calling for financial freedom or 10-100x purchases.

    But then @Pekelo linked to a video from this guy named Max Maher with 450k subs (https://www.youtube.com/c/MaxMaher/videos).

    Here is the link to the post: https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/new-btc-futures-etf.362229/page-2#post-5474125

    The videos are on the shorter side, 8-15 mins, and he doesn't pump them out every day. But of course he pushes his Patreon page to get the latest content and alerts. He has over 7k members, so you can do the math of how profitable this is. But his most recent video that was linked on why the BTC ETF isn't the big elephant that everyone thinks it is was excellent.

    Watched another video on Shiba, and that too was excellent because he talks about how it came to be, the pros and cons, and also states why he thinks a 1 cent price target is unrealistic. So he is about as sensible as you can be in this crypto space.

    Anyway, just wanted to share with everyone. I'm almost starting to think that the internet might be filled with more videos on youtube about crypto than there is porn in all the other websites out there. :D So knowing where to start with regards to what type of crypto content to consume is paramount. You can waste thousands of hours and realize that all you've accomplished was to buy into the hype without really gaining too much knowledge or perspective. (as an example, Max even states that he can see allocating 0.5% of crypto assets into Shibu, simply as a long shot play, which is quite sensible IMO)

    I watched this video...



    I get the idea behind logarithmic regression, but if all he is using is charting techniques, then he doesn't need all those videos that he has!!!

    Oh, he's pretty much known for literally making the worst timed calls ever. It got so bad for a while that people were posting comments that they view his channel so they can do the opposite Alex says and actually make money.

    Yeah, it's gotten out of control. These youtube content creators are all in competition with each other, so they end up posting way too many videos. And when videos are put up that frequently, the titles and content just get more and more sensational to the point that you'd think 100x trades are just normal fruit you get to pick off the tree every day.

    So I watched this video from Max Maher where he discussed how to break up a crypto proftfolio.



    Here is a screenshot from the video with the relative weights of the different coins. I love how its spread out between different sectors like Defi and gaming. He bases this on a $10k starting account. I know that timing is always a touchy subject, since people say you can't time the market, but I can't help but see that some of these are at such crazy levels after amazing runs in only the past few months so I'm not sure if waiting might be better, but nevertheless, I love that he gives actionable advice without just sounding like he is pumping.

    Almost every other video has either URGENT or MUST SEE or MOST IMPORTANT or BEST CHANCE in the title. Oh wait, I missed one... FINAL CHANCE!
