00:11money because either they're getting on a uh on the token uh late in the cycle when it's already
00:16been traded on major exchanges and kind of the upside is uh limited and uh obviously you see
00:23those tier one listings creating opportunity but it also does create danger because when liquidity
00:29floods in retail traders gain access but demand spikes and then obviously you have the validation
00:34and you also have the price discovery and that's where it's really tricky to kind of time the market
00:41but there's many venues that you can trade that are really very good at listing out coins early like
00:48mexc one of my favorite platforms or casex or you can kind of train trick some of them on aggregators
00:55like coin my cap on the upcoming section or deck screener or telegram and discord there's so many
