When the market enters speculative frenzy, chasing moonshots might look appealing—but history shows the real winners often play a different game. Instead of gambling on the next big pump, consider the "shovel seller" strategy: build infrastructure, provide essential tools, and capture steady value regardless of market sentiment. In crypto cycles, this means supporting protocols, dev tools, exchange services, or ecosystem foundations rather than riding every hype wave. While speculators celebrate peak rallies, infrastructure builders accumulate through cycles. The boring work of supporting the space—not predicting it—tends to win the longer race. Something worth thinking about as we move deeper into this market season.
