As long as one person always believes there is a shortcut,

then they are likely to spend a lifetime searching for that shortcut.
Ten years ago, someone asked:
Can BTC still go up?
Twenty years ago, someone asked:
Is the Internet a scam?
Today, there are still people asking:
Is there a way to get rich overnight?
They keep searching for shortcuts,
but have never taken the path that can truly change their fate.

In 2013, one BTC might only buy a carload of daily necessities.
In 2017, one BTC could exchange for a motorcycle.
In 2021, one BTC is close to a luxury sedan.
By 2025, one BTC will be enough to buy a top-tier sports car.
Many see the price increase,
but those with true foresight see:
Time is continuously rewarding those willing to hold long-term.
——
Most people always think:
Is there a coin that doubles faster?
Is there insider information?
Is there a way to make steady profits without losses?
So they keep changing positions,
chasing hot trends,
and searching for so-called shortcuts.
After more than ten years,
their accounts haven't grown,
their understanding hasn't expanded.
And those who truly make big money,
often just do one simplest thing:
Understand the trend,
believe in the trend,
and then endure the trend.
——
The greatest compound interest of wealth,
has never been leverage.
It is understanding.
The most terrifying thing about BTC,
is not how many times it has multiplied.
But after every crash,
someone gets shaken out,
yet it keeps reaching new heights.
Time does not reward the smart,
time only rewards those who see the right direction,
and can persist long enough.
