My biggest takeaway right now is to study the crypto firms and projects that are having trouble as a way to abstract what red flags to look for.
For example, with Terra the abstraction was that pegs don't work as we've seen many a time, especially when Soros broke the BoE. I took a small bath with my Terra holding and life goes on. I can do that because I didn't use leverage, I can lose everything I put into crypto, and I diversified my crypto portfolio. Moving forward I'm staying away from projects with a "stable coin" component as I don't think the fundamentals work.
If anyone has come across an analysis framework for other crypto projects please let me know.
