The most heartbreaking part of this picture is that it clearly illustrates the truth about "opportunity."

Those hundredfold or thousandfold returns are not something you can plan for; they are like lightning. 99% of the time, you're waiting, and that 1% moment could change everything.

You can't design or predict it; the only thing you can do is: don't get off the train.

If Jack Ma hadn't caught the internet wave in 1999, if Huang Zheng had missed the dividends, if Zhang Yiming had been a few years late and missed the mobile internet boom, these stories might not exist.

It's the same in the crypto world. If early BTC holders had sold when no one was paying attention, there would be no later gains.

This picture isn't teaching you how to make a billion, but reminding you: don't exit during long and painful periods. Staying in the game is the biggest strategy.

Although I say this, I know many people, including myself, still think at some crashing moment: maybe I should just give up.

This is the true state of retail investors.
