#夏日创作营 If you can endure loneliness, only then do you deserve the bustle of prosperity! Country Garden misses the run of a hundred billion, revealing the true essence of investing in the crypto world!

The most regrettable thing in the capital markets is not losing money; it’s that you clearly picked the right track, yet you fall in the hour before dawn.

Recently, the news that ChangXin Memory is about to go public has been all over the internet. Country Garden, which once laid out with precision, has become the most regrettable investment case study across the whole network—and it also accurately pinpoints every investor’s recurring problem in the crypto world.

In 2021, with remarkable foresight, Country Garden spent 900 million to participate in ChangXin Memory’s Series C financing, securing 1.56% of its precious equity. In just three years, this investment grew steadily in value. In 2024, due to debt blowups and mounting pressure on the capital chain, Country Garden had no choice but to transfer the equity at a price of 2 billion to Hefei state-owned assets.

On the books alone, 900 million grew to 2 billion—already doubling into profit. It looks like a successful cash-out and exit. But no one expected that, a year later, ChangXin Memory would be about to enter the capital markets, with a conservative valuation as high as 15k trillion. The shares Country Garden sold back then have now surged to a market value of 23.4 billion. In just one year, it missed out on more than 20 billion of top-tier returns, for nothing.

If it weren’t for a crisis in its core business and pressure on its funding—if it had held on to quality assets with patience—this hundred-billion-gain could have helped Country Garden quickly get out of trouble and reverse its downward momentum. Unfortunately, the capital markets never offer a do-over. This extreme case of getting left behind lays bare the underlying logic behind all investing: only those who can endure loneliness can enjoy prosperity.

How similar this is to investing in the crypto world! Countless people stare at charts and watch every fluctuation day after day, chasing pumps and selling into dumps, constantly rotating positions. If you pick the right high-quality coin but can’t survive short-term volatility or withstand the market’s washout, a small pullback sparks panic and you cut losses. If you’re up slightly, you rush to lock in profits and get out.

We’re always envious of other people’s 100x and 1,000x returns, but we overlook this: all top wealth comes from idle money left untouched for the long term plus extreme patience. Country Garden’s lesson fiercely warns everyone: the biggest enemy of investing is never a market downturn—it’s passive anxiety, forced stop-losses, and a restless mindset.

The crypto world never lacks opportunities; what it lacks are people who can stay steady. Real investment pros never gamble on market movements with money they need urgently—they only use idle funds to position for trends.

The market is always fair. Only those who can endure the loneliness of nobody paying attention can hold on to the prosperity of a mass celebration. Cast aside impatience, refuse short-sightedness, steady your mindset, and hold for the long term—that is the only path to ride through bull and bear cycles and earn above-market returns.
