Hodling isn’t the game plan for crypto influencer Lady of Crypto — she plans to cash out her entire crypto portfolio next year.
“I intend to be all out of crypto, maybe [by] September… 100% out,” Lady of Crypto tells Hall of Flame during a chat at Token2049 in Singapore.
“Everybody looks at me like I’m crazy,” the pseudonymous personality laughs, sinking into a comfy chair 40 floors up at the fancy Westin Hotel.
She has her reasons, but don’t worry — she’s not turning to the dark side and throwing her money into safe, boring stuff like term deposits.
“I learned in the last cycle that if I’d have sold more than what I did, I would have made a significant amount. So, things are going to go back down again. I’ll buy it again. You know, buy low, sell high. Very, very simple,” she says.
Lady of Crypto is a qualified nutritionist who lives “not too far from Manchester” in the United Kingdom. She has 538,800 followers tuning in to her constant posts about the crypto market.
She got into crypto in an interesting way. “Like most British people,” she discovered crypto in a pub.
Lady of Crypto’s love for crypto began in a pub
In 2020, Lady of Crypto met a guy called Nick through friends, who, like many blokes at the pub these days, was going on about the “crazy returns” he was raking in from crypto.
That interested her, so they made a deal — she’d help him with his health since she knows nutrition, and he’d teach her about crypto.
“You help me with my nutrition, to get me strong in the gym, and I will teach you everything I know about crypto,” she recalls of the agreement.
Fast forward a few years later, Nick is now working on Lady of Crypto’s team. They both work in crypto full-time, traveling the world to attend crypto conferences.
Channeling her true English roots, when asked what “soccer team” she supports, she quickly corrects me with “football” and says Manchester City FC, which is disheartening words to hear for an Arsenal FC fan.
However, she admits she is more a spectator than a player.
“I was awful at football,” she laughs.
How did Lady of Crypto build her X following?
Lady of Crypto says she’s been asked “quite a few times” how she grew her big following on X but insists there is no magic formula.
Since launching her account in September 2021, she’s been posting nonstop — not just writing but also breaking down the latest crypto news into easy-to-understand, digestible videos. But it was her quirky and energetic personality that really hooked people.
“I started posting a few tweets, honestly being a bit silly at stuff, just putting out like stupid jokes, just giving my opinion on crypto, and people seemed to kind of respond,” she explains.

“I spent so much time on it and when you put so much time into something, things just follow,” she adds.
What type of content does Lady of Crypto do?
Lady says that her content covers “a huge range,” but at the core, it’s “basically educational content.”
One of her main goals in writing is to “educate people in a way where they could learn” from her mistakes over the years.
She prefers to analyze crypto projects from a fundamental perspective, not through technical analysis.
So don’t expect any weird charts with squiggly lines and doodles to back up a million-dollar Bitcoin prediction from her, as you see all over Crypto Twitter.
“A chart may look great in a specific period in time, but if you’ve not done your research into that project like tokenomics, they’re responsible for the long-term health project,” she argues.

“There are things like vesting schedules and all this; a chart may look good, but in two days, there could be a large percentage of the supply that’s going to be released,” she adds.
Lady of Crypto’s price predictions?
Lady of Crypto opines that while “everybody’s a little bit low right now” in the crypto market, it won’t be long before we see some face-melting price spikes.
“I think we’ll start to see retail come back in over Q4 and Q1 2025. I think that it’s potentially going to be a bull run like we’ve never seen before,” she says.
“All the pain that we’re experiencing with the markets now, everything’s going to be, in my opinion, worthwhile, I’m really excited for the waterfall,” she says.
“2025, I think, is going to be parabolic.”
But Lady of Crypto admits that she might just be “gliding on hopium at the moment” because she is at Token2049 and “everything is very exciting.”
