This is the list of those who literally made money while the market was asleep:
Soros broke a central bank (1992, +$1B in a single move). His secret: not to predict the market, but to recognize when the system is on the brink of collapse.
Minervini won the championship twice: 155% in 1997, then 334.8% in 2021. That's not luck, it's pure technical analysis. Identifies patterns that others ignore.
Simmons and Seykota are on another level: mathematician + algorithms + 66% annual for 40 years. While traditional traders were losing money, they were building machines that won.
Dalio (Bridgewater) understood something key: risk is the real game. It's not about how much you make, but about not losing it all.
The pattern? None of these types follow the crowd. They all have a system, and they all learned that patience and controlled risk overcome emotion. The question is: can we replicate their mindset in crypto?
