The amount of midcurve tendency in tradfi is hard to understate. The vast majority of it is geared toward encouraging it.

Almost every investing mistake I made was due to midcurving the problem I'm analyzing, and almost every outlier investing success I've had is because I consciously tried to avoid midcurving the problem I'm analyzing.

Wut do midcurve means? 🤔

I have no idea what you are talking about.

See my reply

I think Venus is in alignment with Jupiter today and therefore there is more Chakra in your lay lines.

Or something like that.

Oh and buy Bitcoin, right?

Can you explain mid curving for the plebs and all those mid curved on the intelligence level?

See my reply

It’s too easy for normies to get caught up in the Midcurve thinking that they’re the genius ones

so is mis curving just jargon for hedging? or trying to throw a Gause function on everything? Also, you think British Columbia went a little hard in the paint during 2020?

You’re over thinking it. (No pun intended)

TradeFi is normally wrong because they don’t have to be right. The entire Industry is centered around inflows and selling you a narrative.

There are multiple types of tradfi entities.

Some are self-aware AUM gatherers, as you describe.

Others are operators, partially trying to gather AUM but mainly trying to squeak out gains against a benchmark while not deviating too much, and trying not to get sued. Basically actively trying to cut the right and left tails off.

Indeed.

They have no interest in being right in the long term, just next QTR

Similar thought processes in science— the insights are in the tails

Take it from a left curve guy Lyn, all you got to do is buy bitcoin!

The largest gains have the highest risk. You can’t follow the herd forever.

What is midcurving?

Pulling back on your position or conviction because maybe you're about to send it a little too hard.

The entire tradfi corporate world rewards and retains the mids. Actually started in public schools.

I don't understand what that word means
