The Lord Directed Us to Make This Post.

 February 20

My golf game needs work.

I love diving into YouTube, chasing new tips and swing tweaks. But if I’m honest, what I really need isn’t another insight, it’s mastery of the fundamentals.

That doesn’t mean learning something new. It means going to the range and repeating the basics over and over until the movement becomes automatic. Building real muscle memory.

That’s what professionals do. A basketball player shoots thousands of free throws. Tiger Woods still practices five foot putts. They aren’t reinventing the wheel, they’re mastering it.

The game doesn’t change. The fundamentals win.

Yesterday, Ryan released a Prophetic Word. The Lord continually told us to go back to the basics. A review and a redo, in more than one way. To me, that meant reviewing important lessons because another event is on the horizon.

Not included in the word, was for me, a very strong impression to review what we learned during the last liquidation event on October 10th.

If you don't have these lessons engrained in you, you'll be running around like a chicken with its head cut off when extreme volatility arrives.

You need to have the fundamentals in place.

You need to know your plan of action before market chaos and volatility arrives.

Nitty Gritty

Let's get very very very basic here for a moment. Don't skip ahead....

Cryptocurrency is digital money that runs on a blockchain, which is a decentralized, distributed ledger shared across thousands of computers instead of controlled by one central authority. Every transaction is permanently recorded and publicly verifiable, making it extremely difficult to alter, manipulate, or “cook the books.” In a world where private ledgers can be adjusted behind closed doors, blockchain technology introduces transparency, mathematical integrity, and trust without relying on intermediaries.

Crypto also enables you to move funds globally instantaneously, any time of day, without waiting for banks to open, clear, or approve transactions. Unlike traditional banking systems that close on nights, weekends, and holidays, blockchain networks operate 24/7, and when you hold your own keys, you maintain direct custody of your assets rather than entrusting them to a third party that can restrict access, or fail and go under.

Crypto is still a small slice of global markets by size, it is now roughly 2% of global equity market capitalization. But it has been one of the fastest growing financial technology ecosystems of the past decade, moving from niche to global scale in a very short time. Which presents great financial opportunities... Especially for where it is headed. The Lord wants to position His people in advanced.

Building The Plan

October 10th, crypto experienced a 70-80% crash across the board, it was a real wake up call for many. An 'ah ha' moment that we weren't blowing smoke. The Lord called that a simple warm up. A blip on the radar for what's coming.

Mentioned before and is an insight of what is to come: a friend and pastor who is in our community had a dream where XRP and XLM were making sharp, sudden moves with tiny windows. The take away from the dream was emphasizing "you need to have a plan in place ahead of time” because everything needed to be set beforehand. In real time, you wouldn't be able to make trades and moves. Only those who implemented a plan ahead of time would win. We saw a taste of this on October 10th when exchanges locked users out, deposits couldn't go through, and the only winners were those who had everything set up ahead of time.

Ryan has shared similar visions of quick moves in both directions, and the Lord has said people will not be able to capitalize on every move, so the focus is preparation.

For this reason we have been suggesting for months key steps that people should take in advance. (not financial advice).

Step 1: Have your funds on exchanges already. Transfers won't go through when extreme crypto volatility happens. Ideally, you have access to more than one exchange.

Step 2: Convert some of your USD into USDC and USDT. Each of these pairs have different liquidity, so when price drops happen, some fall harder and deeper than others. USDC being the least liquid, and had the worst drawdowns last liquidation event.

Step 3: Have your core conviction buy limits set up. For us it is largely XRP, XLM, XDC, and AVAX. We have buy limits for these staggered to very low numbers.

Step 4: Set up a wallet.
Create a self custody wallet so you can actually hold your coins yourself, not just leaving your coins on an exchange when orders get filled. If you do not do this, exchanges can reverse your trades. We have community members who this happened to. Exodus or Trust Wallet are solid starter options. Set it up carefully and store your seed phrase offline and secure. There are lots of youtube videos out there on how to do this. Never give your seed phrase to anyone, and don't store it on your computer.

Step 5: Whitelist your withdrawal addresses.
Add and save your newly created wallet withdrawal addresses on the exchange ahead of time so you can withdraw quickly when orders fill. If you do not, extra steps like 2FA and email confirmations can slow you down in a fast market, and that delay matters. Having withdrawals ready helps you move funds to self custody immediately and avoid issues we have seen where exchanges reverse or unwind activity.

Step 6: Be grateful, not greedy. The Lord has told us and shown us that not every order will get filled. That is why we use risk management. We have skin in the game and hold crypto at the same time. If crypto skyrockets either before or quickly after a liquidation event, we have existing positions in place with sell limit orders ready to go.

Some of these low limit orders may never come around again, so I will likely move a large percentage into long term storage on a cold wallet and forget about them for years. But we also know The Lord has shown us price points to take profits at and exit. For example a warning once XLM is around .67. Will that occur before or after low limits are filled? We do not know. Thats why we have skin in the game at the same time while we wait.

Conclusion

Think of your portfolio like a balanced cargo ship: cash and crypto are different containers, and your goal is to stay steady so you do not capsize emotionally or financially. Everyone’s situation and risk tolerance are different, this is not financial advice, it’s simply what has brought me peace: having a plan that lets you benefit in both directions without trying to catch every move. We will not capitalize on everything, but preparation brings peace and lets you sleep through the storm.
