Someone suggested the company buy ETH at $3,000 and wait for it to reach $9,000 to triple profits—it sounds tempting, but thinking it through carefully, this logic is actually flawed.



If we follow this reasoning, we might as well go all-in with the company's entire assets into ETH. After all, it will triple when it reaches $9,000, so why not? But the problem is, this "as long as it reaches the target price, we make money" mentality ignores market reality.

First, while the target price from $3,000 to $9,000 appears to have a fixed gain, markets are full of variables. Can ETH reach $9,000? When will it get there? Will there be significant pullbacks in between? These are all unknowns. Second, putting all funds into a single asset carries extreme risk. Even if it ultimately does reach $9,000, the volatility in the meantime could cause psychological collapse.

Currently, ETH is trading around $2,050, still some distance from $9,000. This isn't to say we can't be bullish on ETH, but rather that investing requires risk management, not a simple three-step approach of "buy → wait → profit." True investment decisions require considering time costs, opportunity costs, and potential drawdowns.
