Last night at that little wine bar next to the Workers’ Stadium, a friend called me over to talk about something important. But we never really got to the important part. At the next table, three girls—one of them overheard us talking about crypto and turned her head to ask: “You guys play too?”
“Yeah.” We ended up chatting all night.
She works in cross-border e-commerce payments, and she knows PayFi inside and out, like it’s her own ledger. I said, “In the interest-rate-hike cycle, liquidity dynamics—sector rotation just gets more brutal.” She shot me a glance: “You’re only realizing that now? Cash-flow narratives are popular. Pure emotional narratives starve. That’s basically it.”
I didn’t take it seriously at the time. This morning when I opened my screen, I saw that the PayFi sector is up 5%—the strongest in the whole market. GameFi is the biggest loser. $XRP led a bunch of brothers upward, exactly word for word with what she said last night.
On the way home, I bought a can of ice-cold cola and walked while thinking: “Rule #1 of picking up in the crypto world: don’t pretend to understand in front of people who actually do.” “Rule #2…” I still hadn’t figured it out when my phone buzzed—she sent me a message: “Did you chase it today?”
I stared at the screen for a long time and replied: “I chased it too late.”
The truth is, I wanted to reply something else: “Some other day.”
