#MyGateTradeStory #我的Gate交易时刻
In 2010, I didn't know about Bitcoin, but I bought a cake for 900 yuan
In 2013, I heard about Bitcoin for the first time, 1200 yuan, a friend recommended it, asked if I could buy some?
I didn't buy, I told him: “You better calm down.”
Six months later, my friend told me “Bitcoin rose to 6000”
This time, I bought some
A month later, Bitcoin rose to 8500 yuan
I didn't sell
Then, Bitcoin dropped to 4000 yuan,
I broke my margin contract
Six months later, Bitcoin dropped to 900 yuan,
This time, I made a lot of money shorting
I looked at the 900 cake
With a conflicted heart, I bought 20 and put them in the cold wallet, wanting to be like the big players, a long-term investor
Back then, my friends laughed at me as a “panic buyer,” I myself bought with the mindset of zeroing out everything
A year later, the big market rally came, Bitcoin returned to 8888 yuan,
My friends said I was amazing, I confidently said: “I will sell at the top”
I opened the cold wallet, sold all 20 Bitcoins I had stored for over 2 years, nearly 10 times the value
Then, every year, on Pizza Day, I wanted to find a way to disappear
In the world of cryptocurrencies, in fact, this is just a common story of “selling at the high”
A few months ago, a friend asked me: “Do you still remember that year you shorted me and made a lot, and I gave you those 30 Bitcoins?”
I went silent for a while, the pain wasn't about the 30 Bitcoins,
It was about remembering that over the years, I made contracts, played gold, mined, arbitraged, had moments of glory and downfall, but in the end, not only did my Bitcoins decrease, but my money also kept getting smaller. Why, from my Bitcoin of 900 yuan until now, haven't I made much?
My reflection was — I didn't hold onto the Bitcoins, I lacked patience, focused on short-term trading, forgot the reason I bought Bitcoin. If I had to give a selling price now, I’d say “none,” because Bitcoin is the digital gold of the future. Before selling, think about the future price of gold, in the long term, Bitcoin's trend is only upward!
So, in the world of cryptocurrencies, maybe in the end, it’s not about how cheaply you can buy, but how long you can hold. When it comes to wealth, what really matters isn't capital or purchase price, but “vision”! Folks, have you ever bought Bitcoin low? Sold high?
