The self-described “Narrative Dealer and Builder” — a near-daily crypto YouTuber with 675K subscribers who is also the founder and CEO of a live token project. He calls direction loudly and publicly, in his own upload titles, with dates attached. That makes him unusually easy to grade — and this page grades him.
In short. Elliot Wainman posts to 675,000 YouTube subscribers and ~932,000 followers on X as EllioTrades, and has done since the last cycle. His lane is altcoins and narratives — sector rotations, unlocks, regulation, the next thing — delivered at volume and in the imperative. He is also an operator, not just a commentator: he founded SuperFarm in 2021, now SuperVerse ($SUPER), and runs Super Studios. Both facts matter when you read him. His 2026 record here is genuinely mixed and genuinely interesting: he was wrong and bearish into the February low, wrong and bullish at the exact March top, then right three days later with a crash warning — and he called the late-July bottom to within 1.7%.
Elliot Wainman built EllioTrades into one of crypto's larger YouTube channels — 675K subscribers, 1.4K videos, a verified channel described simply as “All things trading, finance, and tech.” — and posts to roughly 932,000 followers on X under a bio that reads “Narrative Dealer and Builder.” The output is relentless: through September 2026 he uploaded most days, often twice.
He is also a founder. SuperVerse, in its own documentation, is “a Web3 ecosystem founded by Elliot Wainman” — originally launched as SuperFarm in 2021 and later rebranded — and he co-founded and runs Super Studios, the company behind it. That is the single most important thing to know before you weigh an altcoin take from him: he is talking about a market in which he issues an asset.
He does not hide the damage. On 29 December 2025 he published an upload titled “How I Lost $100M in Crypto During 2025” — his own accounting, under his own name. His token has not recovered either: SUPER trades at $0.15, −96.9% from its $4.74 all-time high set on 30 March 2021 (CoinGecko, 21 Sep 2026). Neither fact appears on a highlight reel, and both belong on this record.

Narrative-first, altcoin-led, loud. Wainman trades and talks stories — a regulatory unlock, a sector waking up, a coin the market has not priced yet — and packages each one as a directional headline. Chart language shows up (“pattern”, “reversal”) but as framing rather than as levels: he rarely publishes an entry, a stop or an invalidation, which is why the calls below are graded on direction from the day he said it, the only thing he actually commits to. The strength is speed and reach — he is early to narratives and can move small caps. The weakness is whipsaw: on 17 March 2026 he published a bullish Bitcoin pattern and on 20 March a crash warning, three days apart, and the market obliged the second one.
Structurally bullish — on Bitcoin and, more so, on altcoins. His bearish uploads are short-lived interruptions to a permanent long bias, which is why his best 2026 call (the July bottom) and his worst (bullish at the March top) come from the same instinct.
Seven dated calls from his own uploads, charted against real price. A note on method, because it matters here: YouTube's player and description endpoints are bot-gated and there are no public transcripts for this channel, so the only part of each video that can be verified verbatim is its title. That is not a limitation worth hiding — his titles are his calls, published under his name on a verified channel with a date attached. Each quote below was re-fetched live from YouTube's own oEmbed endpoint (which returns the canonical title and the channel name) and its date from the watch page. What happens inside the video is not captured, so the nuance he may have added on camera is not graded — only the claim he chose to put on the thumbnail.
“Bitcoin Bull Run Has Started”
No hedge in the title, and so far no reason for one: from $80,874 Bitcoin has never traded lower and sits at $85,939, +6.3% in two days. But two days is two days — a bull run is a claim about months, not a weekend. Logged open, and it will be re-graded rather than quietly banked.

He named the risk and took the other side of it anyway. From $77,821 the dip he was buying got 2.9% worse at most — $75,590 on 16 Sep — and Bitcoin then ran to $85,939, +10.4% above him. The Fed did not crash it; he was right to keep buying.

His cleanest piece of timing in the window. $69,291 on the day he said it is the lowest price Bitcoin has traded since — not one close below him — and it added 14.0% inside a week, to $79,018 on 27 Aug. It is $85,939 now, +24.0%. The word “explode” was, for once, the right one.

The call of his year. He asserted a bottom with Bitcoin at $63,882; the actual low came four days later at $62,773 on 2 Aug — 1.7% below him — and has never been revisited. Within a month Bitcoin was at $80,268, +25.7%, and it is +34.5% today. We grade the bottom, not the nine coins: which altcoins he named is inside the video and cannot be verified here.

The crash did come — eventually. From $69,936 Bitcoin lost 5.7% inside ten days, to $65,947 on 30 Mar, and ultimately bottomed at $58,566 on 1 Jul, 16.3% below him. Graded played out, with the cost stated plainly: before that low it first rallied 17.3% to $82,018 on 11 May, so anyone who traded the warning was badly offside for seven weeks first.

He published this at $74,679 — the highest close Bitcoin had made in three weeks, and the last one for a month. It fell 9.0% within a week to $67,933 on 23 Mar, 11.7% within two to $65,947, and only crept 0.2% past his level on 16 Apr before rolling over to $58,566 on 1 Jul, 21.6% underwater. Bitcoin is +15.1% above him today, six months later, but the pattern he was pointing at marked a top, not a launch.

A flat declarative about the present tense, and the present tense disagreed almost immediately. From $64,738 Bitcoin dipped just 1.0%, to $64,074 the next day, then rose 6.3% inside a week and 15.4% within a month, to $74,679 on 17 Mar. It is $85,939 now — +32.7% since he said crypto was being killed.
“Why AI Is Killing Bitcoin & Crypto Right Now” — EllioTrades (his own upload, 24 Feb 2026)▶ Watch the call · youtu.be/j_V6Qd57mqoOutcomes are our read of the direction he published against real CoinGecko price, not his own scoring. Because only the title is publicly verifiable, these cards grade the headline claim and nothing else — a video may have been more hedged than its title. Near-term marks can flip as the cycle resolves.
Two engines, and they point in different directions. One is an ordinary media business — a very large YouTube channel with the usual ad and sponsorship economics. The other is not ordinary at all: he issues a token in the market he covers.
A verified channel with 675K subscribers and 1.4K uploads, posting most days. Ad revenue, sponsor segments and paid placements are the base business, and volume is the strategy — more uploads, more narratives, more surface area.
He founded SuperFarm, now SuperVerse, and runs Super Studios. That is a direct, permanent conflict with commentary on altcoins. The token's own record is public: SUPER is $0.15, −96.9% from its $4.74 peak of 30 March 2021, a $95M market cap (CoinGecko, 21 Sep 2026).
An upload to 675K subscribers naming specific small-caps is itself a market event, and he is a founder who may hold what he discusses. Neither his channel description (“All things trading, finance, and tech.”) nor his X bio (“Narrative Dealer and Builder”) carries a holdings disclosure — so assume nothing is disclosed and weigh the calls accordingly.

He uploads most days. A few recent ones that are dated and verified but not charted — because their titles make no directional claim, or fall outside the price window:

How I Lost $100M in Crypto During 2025His own accounting of the previous year. Outside the 210-day price window, so it cannot be charted — but it is the most useful thing on this list.29 Dec 2025Elliot Wainman, a crypto YouTuber and investor with roughly 675,000 YouTube subscribers and 932,000 followers on X. He covers altcoins, narratives and market direction — and he is also the founder of SuperVerse (originally SuperFarm) and CEO of Super Studios, so he issues a token in the market he comments on.
Not publicly verified, and no figure should be trusted. What is public: he published an upload on 29 December 2025 titled “How I Lost $100M in Crypto During 2025,” and the token he founded, SUPER, is down 96.9% from its 2021 all-time high.
He is a commentator and a token founder, not a licensed adviser, and the record here is genuinely split: of seven dated 2026 calls, four played out, one is open and two went clearly against — including a bullish Bitcoin call published on the exact day of the March top. His late-July bottom call was excellent. Treat any of it as a dated opinion from someone with a book, never as a signal.
Narrative-first and altcoin-led. He looks for a story the market has not priced — a regulatory unlock, a sector rotating, a small cap with a catalyst — and publishes it as a directional headline. He rarely states entries, stops or invalidation levels, so his calls are directional claims rather than trades.
Wainman trades stories: get to the narrative before the market does, and say it loudly. How close is that to your instinct — measure it for real with a Trader Passport.
