#我的Gate交易时刻

In 2010, I didn't know about Bitcoin, but I bought 900 RMB worth of Bitcoin.

In 2013, I first heard about Bitcoin, 1200 RMB, from a friend who recommended it to me, asking if I could buy some.

I didn't buy it, I told him, "You better take it easy."

Half a year later, my friend told me, "Bitcoin has risen to 6000."

This time, I bought some.

One month later, Bitcoin rose to 8500 RMB.

I didn't sell.

Later, Bitcoin kept falling to 4000 RMB,

I got liquidated on a futures contract.

Another half year later, Bitcoin dropped to 900 RMB,

This time, I made a lot of money by shorting.

Looking at the 900-dollar Bitcoin,

I bought 20 with a conflicted mindset, stored them in a hardware wallet, hoping to be a long-term believer like those big shots.

Back then, my friends laughed at me as a "bagholder," and I bought with a zeroing mindset.

A year later, during the roaring bull market, Bitcoin rose back to 8888 RMB,

My friends all said I was awesome, and I confidently said, "I'm going to sell the top."

I opened my hardware wallet and sold all 20 Bitcoins I had stored for over two years, nearly ten times the amount.

Later, every year during Pizza Day, I couldn't help but wish I could find a crack to hide in.

In the crypto world, this is just an ordinary, unremarkable "selling the top" story.

A few months ago, a friend asked me, "Do you remember that year you shorted and made a killing? Do you still have those 30 Bitcoins I transferred to you?"

I paused for a moment, and the pain wasn't about those 30 Bitcoins,

But recalling over the years, I’ve had glory days and downturns in futures, gold farming, mining, and arbitrage, but overall, not only did my coins decrease, but my money also became less.

Why, from my 900 RMB Bitcoin to now, haven't I made much profit as a participant?

My reflection is—because I don't hold coins long-term, I lack patience, and I focus too much on short-term trading, forgetting the original reason I bought Bitcoin. If I were to set a selling price now, I’d write "none." Bitcoin is the future digital gold. Before selling, think about how high gold prices could go in the future. From a long-term perspective, Bitcoin's trend will keep rising!

So in the crypto world, maybe in the end, it's not about how low you can buy, but how long you can hold. When it comes to wealth, what really determines how far you can go isn't just principal or cost basis, but your "vision"! Everyone, have you ever bought Bitcoin at the lowest point? Did you sell too early? Leave a comment and share!
