Your body is the ultimate cold wallet; don't lose your health's private key.

Author: Chen Xiaomeng

In the crypto market and the game of capital, I have always emphasized one concept: the cornerstone assets of human civilization.

I bought NVIDIA/Google to bet on the future of computing power, and I hold BTC to hedge against the collapse of the fiat currency system. I will scrutinize the white paper, token economics, and on-chain data of every project with an extremely critical eye.

However, as I crossed the threshold of 30, I became increasingly aware of an obvious but often overlooked Beta risk: if the "cold wallet" of my body loses its private key, or if the hardware suffers an irreversible failure, then all the appreciation of assets on the chain will be meaningless.

For those of us who need to make high-intensity mental decisions around the clock and frequently deal with drastic market fluctuations, physical function is actually the second largest cornerstone asset after Bitcoin and AI.

To build the most robust biological moat, I constructed a full-stack Biohacking protocol.

This is a war about efficiency, metabolic rate, and ROI.

I. Due Diligence: Building High-Frequency Data Dashboards

Investing requires data support, and managing one's health should be even less reliant on intuition. To accurately control this complex biological system, I introduced a four-dimensional data monitoring system, essentially creating a "Dune" dashboard for the body:

Real-time metabolic monitoring: Continuous Glucose Meter (CGM). I wear the Abbott FreeStyle Libre CGM disc. Besides being suitable for diabetics, it can also be used by high-achieving individuals as a real-time fluctuation monitor.

• Logic: Drastic fluctuations in blood sugar are the main culprit behind post-meal drowsiness, loss of concentration, and impaired willpower. With CGM, I can visually see the "K-line trend" of each bite of food on my body, thus controlling my blood sugar within a stable, narrow range of fluctuation.

• System recovery monitoring: WHOOP monitors heart rate variability (HRV) and deep sleep. This determines whether my strategy for the day is aggressive or conservative.

• Body composition audit: The 8-electrode body fat scale monitors muscle mass and visceral fat levels. Visceral fat is the biggest hidden liability and must be addressed constantly.

• Low-level code auditing: Whole genome testing helps us understand our factory settings (source code) and develop the safest interaction strategies for genetic defects.

II. Core Algorithm Upgrade: Fixing Metabolism and Flow

For someone like me who sits in front of a computer for long periods, the two biggest systemic risks are: metabolic stagnation and depletion of blood flow.

1. Repair metabolic flexibility

The turning point after 30 lies in whether the body, like a mining machine, can still operate efficiently. Many people suffer from insulin resistance—a problem akin to congestion and high gas fees on the Ethereum network, preventing cells from efficiently utilizing energy, which instead accumulates as fat.

• Strategy: I'm pursuing a hybrid powertrain. My body can burn glucose (electricity) and smoothly switch to burning fat (oil) mode when fasting.

means:

Intermittent fasting (16:8): Give the digestive system 16 hours of downtime each day for maintenance and to clean up junk files.

• Blood sugar control diet: Reduce intake of refined carbohydrates to avoid frequent spikes and drops in insulin levels.

2. Combating the sedentary crisis

Prolonged sitting is the new smoking. For me, it's not just a posture problem; it's a crisis of fluidity within the body. Prolonged inactivity causes a 90% drop in lipase activity, like a stock exchange unplugging its internet cable—all trading instantly comes to a standstill.

Hardware upgrade:

Adjustable desk: Easily switch between standing and standing positions to break the deadlock.

• Under-desk treadmill: This is my secret weapon. Walking at a low speed during leisure time increases blood flow to the brain, instantly doubling the clarity of thought.

III. Position Building Strategy: My Supplement Portfolio

Based on the above logic, I created a supplement portfolio called "The Stack." It only selects blue-chip stocks that have been proven over a long period of time.

Section 1: Infrastructure and Defense

Objective: To address the inflammatory response caused by prolonged sitting and high stress.

• High-purity Omega-3 (EPA/DHA): A blood vessel cleanser, combating blood viscosity caused by prolonged sitting, and also a hardware lubricant for the brain.

• Milk thistle + curcumin: Liver "insurance." Coping with the stress of staying up late and reducing chronic inflammation throughout the body.

• Vitamin D3 + K2: Essential for indoor workers.

Section 2: Computing Power Enhancement and Metabolic Optimization

Objective: To optimize mitochondrial function and address metabolic slowdown.

• Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) + Coenzyme Q10 + PQQ: This is an extremely powerful combination. ALA is not only an antioxidant but also mimics the action of insulin, helping mental workers like myself metabolize blood sugar more efficiently, delivering energy into cells instead of storing it in the stomach. The mitochondrial trio. The heart and brain are the most energy-intensive organs in the body; this combination can significantly increase cellular-level ATP output, clearing up mental fog and making decisions more decisive.

• Active B vitamins: Stabilizers of the nervous system, combating anxiety.

Section 3: Maintenance and Waste Recycling

• Magnesium glycinate: The holy grail of sleep, improving sleep ROI.

• Psyllium husk powder: A physical firewall for gut health, reducing toxin absorption.

IV. Execution Protocol: Data-Based Alpha Strategy

With hardware monitoring and supplemental leverage, everyday actions become the basic Beta gains.

• Data-driven diet algorithms: Instead of blindly following a particular diet, they adjust in real time based on CGM feedback. The core principle is to flatten the blood sugar curve. High protein, healthy fats, and plenty of fiber, with strategic intake of low-glycemic carbohydrates. This is essentially a low-volatility strategy; maintaining stable blood sugar levels is equivalent to maintaining stable focus.

Structured Motion Protocol:

DCA: Zone 2 low-intensity steady-state aerobic exercise 3-4 times a week to build a strong cardiorespiratory foundation and metabolic base.

• Building support: 2-3 strength training sessions per week. Muscles are the body's armor and metabolic organs, key to maintaining structural support and preventing collapse with age.

V. Conclusion

Investing is an infinite game; only those who survive long enough will witness the prosperity of the next cycle.

After 30, building a biological moat becomes a must. I not only need to prevent capital from shrinking, but also muscle loss, metabolic breakdown, and arteriosclerosis.

This is not just for longevity, but also so that the brain can be in an ATH state at every crucial moment, capturing its own Alpha.

The best foundational asset is always yourself.
