Hey everyone, remember this! Hold on tight, hold on again! Don’t mess around randomly.
As a veteran who has been in the crypto world for over a decade, earning a living through trading coins, I sincerely advise everyone:
1. Understand the market cycle: A complete market cycle takes about four years from start to finish. Looking back, it’s clear—2016-2018, 2020-2021, 2023-2025, all follow this pattern. Follow the cycle and don’t miss the right rhythm.
2. Long-term holding is the way to go: Especially at the beginning of a bull market, when the four-year cycle is just starting, it’s the time to settle down and hold your positions. Rushing to buy and sell will only cause you to pick up pennies and lose dollars.
3. Major coins will eventually explode: Any undervalued major coin, as long as you have patience and dare to hold, will eventually see an explosive moment. Avoid selling midway.
4. Don’t compare with mainstream coins blindly: Most small coins can’t outperform mainstream coins in the end. Instead of wasting time switching coins aimlessly, it’s better to hold onto quality assets, and sometimes even that might not beat Bitcoin—it's just a waste of effort.
5. The biggest regret in a bull market is not holding on: Many people regret during a bull market—not because they didn’t buy good coins, but because they bought them and didn’t hold, missing the chance for doubled or tripled gains.
